The chart is a bit confusing, but I think it tells the tale of declining cap rates and interest rates, particularly real interest rates, which are currently anemic.

To my mind it shows that housing prices tracked inflation almost perfectly until they introduced the potentially erroneous "Owner's Equivalent Rent".

...which may indicate that housing, PMs, and commodities are tracking the **real** rate of inflation.
