The central hypothesis is not that Europe stopped producing
114-
output. It is that output growth translated less cleanly into
115-
public-market returns. The scatter view makes that split visible:
116-
prosperity growth on one axis, ETF growth on the other.

This leads us to the hypothesis that it isn't that Europe
114+
stopped producing output, it is that output growth diverged from
115+
broader market indicators. We apply a break-fit test to find
116+
divergence points in various metrics, and find that candidate
117+
break years cluster around the 2008 crisis window. The
118+
normalization view lets you explore these critical years and
119+
view the apparent divergence - much wider for ETF data and
120+
market cap, but much narrower for GDP, and especially after
121+
adjusting for PPP.
