EUR/USD annual average: Deutsche Bundesbank official data, via wechselkurse-vergleich.de.
34
S&P 500 total return & 10Y US Treasury total return, 2000–2020: Aswath Damodaran (NYU Stern), pages.stern.nyu.edu/~adamodar — precise, sourced from FRED.
35
S&P 500 & 10Y Treasury total return, 2021–2025: well-known market outcomes (approximate; not independently re-verified line by line — replace with your own data if precision matters).
36
Eurozone HICP & US CPI inflation: approximate annual figures from general published sources (Eurostat / BLS); not a precise line-by-line citation.
37
This 26-year window is the entire euro era — there is no rolling multi-decade historical currency dataset the way there is for 150 years of US equity data. Treat results as illustrative of the SIZE of currency risk, not as a rigorous SWR success/failure study.
