Equity prices rose with the broader economy, as strong fiscal and monetary support, as well as the development of vaccines, made investors increasingly optimistic about the economic outlook. The implementation of mass vaccination campaigns and passage of two additional fiscal stimulus packages Rob Kapito further boosted stocks, and many equity indices neared or surpassed all-time highs late in the reporting President, BlackRock, Inc. period.
