Since 28th April 2010, Americans Pulled USD 42.116 Billion Out From Equities!

So how has the S&P performed for the current month of July?


Now that's rather impressive right? (except for the lack of volume :P )

Now I have been posting recently on out from US Equities. :P

July 9th: And The Stock Markets Rallied... Because Of....

  • Equity funds had estimated outflows of $180 million for the week, compared to estimated outflows of $1.28 billion in the previous week. Domestic equity funds had estimated outflows of $227 million, while estimated inflows to foreign equity funds were $47 million.

July 16th: The Markets And Fund Flows

  • Equity funds had estimated outflows of $4.23 billion for the week, compared to estimated outflows of $216 million in the previous week. Domestic equity funds had estimated outflows of $4.12 billion, while estimated outflows from foreign equity funds were $112 million.

July 22nd: And The Money Keeps Flowing Out From US Equities

  • Equity funds had estimated outflows of $3.27 billion for the week, compared to estimated outflows of $4.29 billion in the previous week. Domestic equity funds had estimated outflows of $3.16 billion, while estimated outflows from foreign equity funds were $113 million.

Now surely... the Amercians can see that the S&P is going up higher and higher yes?

And despite the markets going up higher, they continued to take out money from the US equities!

Wassap?

Is there a plague with the US equities?

And here's the latest update, for the period ending 21 July 2010:

  • Equity funds had estimated outflows of $1.32 billion for the week, compared to estimated outflows of $3.19 billion in the previous week. Domestic equity funds had estimated outflows of $1.53 billion, while estimated inflows to foreign equity funds were $204 million.

Now if I compile the recent data...



Now don't let me scare you but let's have a rational look at the data itself. (data source: here )

Well the week prior to 5th May was 28th April and since 28th April 2010, Americans took out a whopping 42.116 Billion out from the US Equities!

Why?

No more love for the US Equities markets?

I dunno....

ps... at this rate... it's no wonder... in regards the lack of volume in the market. LOL!
