Let me take a shot at it..
Sharp raise in (1) is not right. It should be "rise" instead. So, (1) is out.
Scanning down .. "rise of" and "rising of" sound unidiomatic. So, eliminate (3) and (4).
Now, looking at (2) and (5), I like the usage of "appears to <be or infinitive form of verb> better. So, I'd go with (5). I also like "Despite" better than "Even as"
What is the official answer?
