Risk appetite among investors is skyrocketing:



Risky asset fund inflows have exceeded safe asset fund inflows by a record $220 billion over the last 4 weeks.

Risky assets represent equities and corporate bonds, among others, while safe assets include money markets and Treasury bonds.

This stands in sharp contrast to 2025, when safe asset funds drew more inflows than risky funds for most of the year.

The recent surge even surpasses the highs of ~$200 billion seen during the 2021 meme stock frenzy.

To put this into perspective, during the 2020 pandemic, safe asset fund inflows exceeded risky fund inflows by more than $500 billion.

Investors are taking on more risk than ever.
