S&P ETF Outflows Soar To Biggest Since 2008
Presented with little comment aside to ask... is it different this time?
and as a reminder, HY outflows are surging... perhaps, just perhaps the taper does matter? Perhaps the 'repo' issue we have been exposing matters?

Red neck for hey yall watch this!!!
ray ray ray Satoshi! We love you!
Fuck Fonestar and Fuck Satoshi.
is it Different this time? Well, considering that this MASSIVE $ Printing has NEVER happened before. ever. Yes.. it IS Different this time.
Nonsense, bullish!
What will you do with those proceeds from selling all of your SPDR?
Bullish for mattress safes!
There's NO biz ness like SHOWWWWW biz ness like NO business I KNOWWWWWWWWW!
That's a fact, Vet. Long on bread and circuses.
Herd them into bonds.
mostly cash. Most big firms are prepping for the fed to raise rates. May as well get to cash and start picking away as both stawks and bawnds possibly go on sale.
Raise rates ...... Lol.
Ya right. Raise rates and then every multinational bank in the western world goes bankrupt the next day.
Let's see them taper below the monthly fiscal spending shortfall. See how things go when someone has to put up their OWN fiat to bid securities.
Theres allways zimbabwe
4 dollar silver....
Don't scare me like that, lol (of course that would be a hell of a buying op).
You had to go capture that friggin comet now didn't ya!
Why do you say such an odd thing? You, of all people, know better. This is not possible.
Man, would I loves me some Foe Dollah Silvuh, bitchez!!!
Smart money is getting out of the risky SPY and into the safe bellweathers like TSLA.
SPACE INVADERS!
AMZN on sale with a 850 P/E. So many great investments to choose from! Where do I even begin?
How about Silver at $20/oz.? That will look pretty good looking back from 2018.
Yup!!!
keep stackin', bitchez!!!
Presume institutions (not retail) are exiting?
Retail too. Most institutions that own SPDR are just holding for retail customers.
Oh jeeezzz, not this one again. It's the Algos, it's the flows of millions of investors out the markets, the markets don't exists.
WHERE IS MY HINDENBURG OMEN?
Do dead people know they are dead?
No they voted for Obama and getting ready for Novembr no time to die
As much as sleeping people know they are asleep.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand.......where is the money going to?
To the sidelines where it's turned into dry-power waiting to BtFD.
My money is setting on the sidelines waiting for something real to buy. That ain't stocks nor bonds.
But if everbody is headed to the USD then why did it weaken?
When you say headed, people have headed into the US dollar like a lotto ball heads to one particular side of the chamber.
The language, "weaken" / strengthen", etc. refers to the exchange rate with other currencies. If US entities sell SPDR and buy US Bonds and Notes, it has no effect on the exchange rate.
Silver is pretty real.
don't let that dry powder sit on the sidelines too long. Some, yes...but if you haven't started yet, then if I was you, I'd get to stackin' phyzz silver and gold now.
When everyone else's sideline "money" starts to stampeding for phyzz you aren't going to want to be caught up in that mess. You'll want to already have your stacks nice and high.
Maybe even have some "extra" phyzz that you can trade or sell off for other valuable assets that people might want to trade for your "playing around" phyzz, if ya know what I mean?
Bail-ins
what does this mean to a newbie investor??? that hedge funds and other institutions are selling their bonds? so who is buying them if this is the case?? mom and pop investors??
Italians and Germans
The dead peple
The article you're commenting on refers to sales of SPDR; an ETF representing a portion of the NYSE; it has nothing to do with bonds.
Considering this is ETF outflows we're talking about, its probably not hedge funds that are selling. Hedge funds tend to pick stocks, rather than invest in an index, so they have a reason to charge huge fees. So you unfortunately can't blame "hedge fund managers" for this one. In fact, it might even be mom and pop investors doing the selling.
And yes, as several others pointed out, this is stocks, not bonds.
Creation Units, bitchez. Sell all you want. No matter.
The focus appears to be changing from:
Return on Capital
to
Return of Capital
Seems odd we are on course to close flat.
I don't understand how this is measured. If someone is selling the ETF, doesn't that also mean someone else is buying the ETF? How do you determine which one is inflow and which one is outflow?
NO. ETF's don't work like that. The shares are redeemed for cash. the chart shows that persons, entities, have exited the ETF; their accounts are credited with cash. What you're describing is how the Commodities Futures Exchange operates; by creating a contract between a buyer and seller; this is completely different.

The really big earners in recent years have benefited greatly from the surging stock prices as much of their income has come from financial markets and gains in equities. Many people seem to think this is the hope of our future.
When you have more than you need or want to put money away for a rainy day where do you store it? If you rated people on a "wealth chart" by how many tangible assets they owned you might be shocked to find much of the wealth people own is in paper and this is full of risk. More on this subject in the article below.

I've been eyeballing some bonds yielding 0.7% and some rental properties in the bay area that are 120% cash flow negative.
Great investment opportunities abound! Where does one even begin? There's a tulip farm down the street that's also tempting.
If you insist on a conventional paper investment; you should investigate ABB; it's listed on the NYSE. It's a world wide supplier of big energy solutions for governments and regions; electrical distribution equipment, etc. etc. They pay a dividend and they are one of the best managed companies in the world. The more you research it the more impressed you'll be.
I know ABB. I worked for a competitor of theirs. It is a great company for sure. Noted.
ALSO...get out of mutual funds and pension funds wherever you can. Already, they are lobbying for the gating of withdrawals. There are juices left in these places that the banksters are lusting for.
Illiquidity for toxics are building and you can see this even in the TBTF Banks trading results. More of these toxics have to be warehoused particularly with second tier banks and the poor EC Banks. Sovereign Wealth Funds from creditor nations are not touching these papers. Another Lehman moment can arrive.
Smart Monies usually better advised by their HFs are paranoid on risks.
