A Fed pivot could be devastating:
Since the Fed turned dovish in December, financial conditions have eased dramatically.
We have seen the S&P 500 make new all time highs, IPO activity is up, credit spreads have tightened and M&A is back.
Consumers have benefitted from a rise in asset prices and investors are piling into stocks.
Apollo says this is similar to what we saw in the 1970s when inflation rebounded to well over 10%.

Wall Street's Waning Influence
Sell-side ratings from Wall Street banks have increasingly been viewed as "useless" for investment guidance, a study by Trivariate Research reveals.

The S&P 500 is officially up 25%, adding 1,000 points, since its low in October 2023.
This has only happened 10 times dating back to 1930, according to Bank of America.
The last 3 times this happened?
August 2020, July 2009 and January 1999.
However, the Magnificent 7 are currently *only* up 149% since the run began in December 2022.
This percentage gain is lower than every "bubble" dating back to 1930 except for one.
History says the Magnificent 7 aren't done yet.
