. Case developed a method for comparing repeat sales of the same homes in an effort to study home pricing trends. He was using data from house sales in Boston in the early 1980s, which was going through a housing price boom
. While Case argued that such a boom was ultimately unsustainable, he had not considered it a bubble
, a commonly-used term to describe similar market trends. Case sat down with Shiller, who was researching behavioral finance
and economic bubbles, and together formed a repeat-sales index using home sales prices data from other cities across the country. In 1991, while Weiss was performing graduate studies under Shiller, he persuaded them to form a company, Case Shiller Weiss, to produce the index periodically with the intent of selling the information to the markets. Fiserv
, an information management company, bought Case Shiller Weiss in 2002 and, together with Standard & Poor's
, developed tradable indices based on the data for the markets which are now commonly called the Case–Shiller index.
