That's the theory and the Fed is betting the collapse of the bond market, which will come when inflation hits and interest rates start to rise, will have less impact on the equities.  Based on 1994 that seems like a reasonable bet but what is different is that in 1994 equities were propped up by an improving economy and not by Fed quantitative easing.  Makes me very nervous and I'm wondering if both will be slammed when the inevitable happens.  But maybe they ascribe to the Keynsian attitude that who cares, we'll be dead by then!  

Either way, this stock market rally is being artificially fueled and could collapse like a house of cards, which is what the contrarians are saying long and loudly.  I will take my cue from one of our Wall Street investors (big pension fund). He told us to get our money into t-bills two months before the collapse of the banks.  Saved us a lot of money and angst as they sorted that mess out.
