I think the length of the curve from 2000 to 2004 is the bias.
It overstates the negative movement, essetially makes it feel like a "20%" (22% as Philip pointed out) drop instead of a "2%" drop, because they start from 80 and go to 90.
Because of it only covering Y-Values from 80-to-90 it overstates a certain movement by a factor of 10.
It would be more accurate if the Y-Values went from 0 to 90 instead of just 80-90.
