When you throw extra demand in a market, prices go up all across the board, not equally though.

As for this particular situation, Fed buys corporate bonds, making companies less risky for stockowners. They also push those yields down, so capital goes to stocks to seek better returns.

Tell me how Federal reserve's actions don't prop up the stock market?
