Would higher market interest rate = lower equity price? As we have to discount the cash flows back at higher a rate?

Also consider the asset allocation part of the story… When interest rates are higher, fixed income securities may attract higher investor attention and steal some share of investments made in equities.

It would lead to a lower justified equity price using the DDM, FCF, or RI models.
