"It hit its lowest point in 2005 at 1.08."
"It hit its lowest point in 2005 at 1.08."
I have seen it and I was wondering if 'at 1.08' functions as an adverb and modifies 'hit' or the number just means 'its lowest point'? I think condsidering natural interpretation, 'at 1.08' is an appostion with 'its lowest point'. What do you native English speakers think? I hope to make my question clear. Thank you so much as usual in advance.

Anonymous"It hit its lowest point in 2005 at 1.08."I would say 'It hit its lowest point of 1.08 in 2005.' (It's better to keep the underlined part together.)
"it's lowest point" is the object of the verb "hit", and "1.08" tells us what the lowest point was. (But you could say that "1.08" is also part of the object.)
