BofA Says Cash Is King as Investor Pessimism Hits 2008-Era High

(Bloomberg) – Investors are flocking to cash and shunning almost every other asset class as they turn the most pessimistic since the global financial crisis, according to Bank of America Corp. strategists.

Cash had inflows of $30.3 billion, while global equity funds saw outflows of $7.8 billion in the week through Sept. 21, the bank said in a note, citing EPFR Global data. Bond funds lost $6.9 billion, while $400 million left gold, the data showed.

Investor sentiment is “unquestionably” the worst it’s been since the crisis of 2008, with losses in government bonds being the highest since 1920, strategists led by Michael Hartnett wrote in the note.

(Cash too, 'cause for some things, at some times and in some places cash truly is king.)
