{"id":10142,"slug":"african-export-stock-regimes-oct-nov-2026","title":"The two regimes of African banked export share on Spotify’s charts, 20 panel days to 11 November 2026","source":"Computed from this desk's registered dataset african-banked-export-share-series","source_url":"","source_type":"computed","method":"Population: all 20 panel days between 11 October and 11 November 2026 for which this desk holds a complete snapshot of all 75 published Spotify daily Top 200 country charts. Each day is assigned to a regime purely by whether its banked export share is above or below 1 per cent, a cut chosen because the observed distribution leaves the whole interval from 0.539 to 1.580 per cent empty, so any cut inside that interval produces the identical split. No day was assigned by hand. For each regime the table reports the minimum, maximum and arithmetic mean of the banked export share and of the one-day export share, France's mean share of banked export, the identity and share range of the largest single holder, mean banked export and mean banked panel total, and the ranges of the artist counts. Limits: 20 readings is a short series and the five low-regime days are not consecutive; chart streams are only tracks inside a market's top 200, not catalogue consumption; banked totals are capped by how long the source has tracked each market; and Spotify publishes a daily chart for 4 African countries out of 54, so the African side of the panel is thin by construction.","unit":"percent","license":"Afrobeats Wire's compilation and analysis are licensed CC BY 4.0.
