I wonder if California teachers would like it if they knew that CalPERS has $730 million invested in Carlysle.

I think what he is saying is that equities (stocks) are fully valued now. Putting more money into the stock market will drive stock prices up -- but the stock values will be unrealistic in relation to each company's earnings and assets.

As it is, much of the S&P 500 is trading at or near 52 week highs and with correspondingly high Price/Earning and Price/Book ratios.
