Bank of America: We are witnessing a stock market ‘exodus’

Investors pulled a whopping $44 billion out of the stock market in the past five weeks. BAML’s Michael Hartnett, who characterized this as an “equity exodus,” noted that this was the largest redemption over a 5-week period since August 2011.

In the past week, $3.5 billion went into bond funds and $1.0 billion went into precious metals funds, which offer exposure to gold. There was also $10.9 billion poured into money market funds, the largest inflow in 13 weeks.

Here is another interesting fact. As of last week commercials (smart money) have increased their net long VIX exposure to an all time high. As per out weekly COT reports.
