One more on the list: the end of quantitative easing. I think QE has largely pushed the markets up since 2009, and the withdrawal of liquidity from the system (if it ever happens, but normally should start this year) combined with increasing rates should at the very least create market volatility, if not apply a downward pressure.

It's scary what QE did. Inflated the largest stock market bubble & bond market bubble at the same time. While most portfolios are split across them for diversity.
It's more likely they both get crushed unless of course bonds continue to do what they've done in the past meaning nominal yields go to -3% & real yields -5%. It's possible I guess.
