Market Rally Supported by the Fed Pivot

The market rally in the first quarter of the year was supported by the Fed's pivot in mid-October. As the Fed signaled a change in policy, investors interpreted this as a signal to be bullish again, resulting in a surge in market activity. The correlation between yields and stock prices has been a key driver, indicating that a slowdown in economic activity is not the primary concern. The biggest near-term risk identified is a potential uptick in inflation and a Fed reluctant to lower rates, causing a shift in market valuations.
