The Case-Shiller Home Price Index is an indicator that shows fluctuations in home prices across major metropolitan areas in the United States. Published monthly by S&P Dow Jones Indices, it assesses housing price trends nationally and in the top 20 metropolitan areas.
The index reflects how much home prices have increased or decreased during a specific period, and it is crucial for understanding the health of the U.S. housing market. An increase in home prices indicates a robust housing market and an improvement in homeowners' property values. Conversely, a decline in home prices may suggest that the housing market is stagnating.
This data is vital for policymakers to evaluate housing market trends and formulate appropriate housing policies. It also serves as an important source of information for businesses and investors to gauge housing market dynamics and economic forecasts.
