fear of projected/expected/hypothetical economic conditions though, so they are kind of related?
like i totally agree, i can understand the basic math between
"equities are worth more when corporations can finance their projects/growth cheaper (0-2%) than at 4-6%"
the less money corporations stand to make, the less profitable they are, they less they are worth, the less premium investors want to pay for exposure to their hypothetical earnings yields, etc. etc.
but some stat somewhere said "it's not as simple as exiting the market and waiting for the fed to do QE again" (don't fight the fed)
equities can still "price in", digest, and "go up" during fed monetary policy tightening cycle. i think i read it's happened 9 out of 14 times previously. not sure the truth behind it/wish i could remember the source.

i don't think the low point is at all correlated to actual economic conditions. just fear
