The purpose of the index is to track sales trends of St. Joseph Statues in the top 20 US housing markets as a relationship to home prices published by Standard & Poor’s in the Case-Shiller Home Price Index. The time period covered in the charts are from Oct., 2005 – March, 2008. The start date corresponds to the unwinding of the US real estate market.

Because sales of St. Joseph are cyclical, much like the real estate market, up in the summer-down in the winter, a trend line helps determine the momentum of sales.

Updates to the SJShX index will be released quarterly.
