To make the chart below, I took the Case-Shiller composite 20 and made two conversions: one to US-inflation-adjusted US dollars (that is, divide the Case-Shiller by the PCE deflator) and the second to Euro-inflation-adjusted Europs (that is, multiply the Case-Shiller by Euro exchange rate and then divide by the EURO HICP -- the consumer price index for the Euro area).



added: here's a Canadian (inflation-unadjusted?) perspective.
