As expected. As interest rates rise more capital that would otherwise be allocated on businesses, real estate, stocks, etcetera is redirected into safer and now more attractive bets like bonds and interest rates tied instruments
People have been "delusional" in a sense since the late 90's when inflation slowed to a crawl and everyone got used to stable prices. If inflation had been ~1% higher over these last decades, prices wouldn't be far off from where they are now and people wouldn't have flipped out so dramatically over the sudden adjustment.
