We show that our previously proposed anti-hierarchical baryon collapsescenario for the joint evolution of black holes and host galaxies predictsquasar luminosity functions at redshifts 1.51.5, the population ofExtremely Red Objects, and the properties of local ellipticals.Comment: 15 pages, 8 figures, uses REVTeX 4 + emulateapj.cls and apjfonts.sty.
