Will growth keep the stock rally going?

In the first quarter of 2012 the Dow Jones industrial average, the S&P 500, and the Nasdaq all increased substantially.  The question is will the stock market continue to grow? In the past 5 years the S&P 500 has risen every year and had an average growth of 4.5%.  Some say growth is due to The Fed's support of the economy.

Although the stock market has stabilized and seems to be improving significantly, it is hard to forecast future earnings from historical trends because they are not always accurate due to constant fluctuation of consumer confidence.
