Early on BA question

I joined a consulting firm as a developer (100k) but since there were no dev roles available on project, they assigned me as a BA. I feel comfortable in the role and feel as tho I am effective and good at it (albeit I struggled a ton early on) but my time may be coming to an end, to no fault of my own but a project that is ending. I have a good grasp on the technology and complete development tickets along with my ba work.

The problem is, I don’t want to be reassigned to a new project in a full time software developer role. I would like to stay as a BA, and I have a couple of Q’s as I’m exploring options:

1.) what can I do to better my resume as I start applying for full BA roles (certs, etc.)
2.) I don’t want to take a pay cut, is 100k+ reasonably expected with 4 years of tech experience, and 2 years of PM/BA? 3.) am I stupid for wanting to leave? 4.) job market comments appreciated: I see jobs in qualified for on LinkedIn but I have heard it’s a bad bad time to be on the market

Thank you to anyone who responds and feel free to PM me if any specific q’s
