Nov. 15 (CandyPulse) — While crypto investors were heading for the exits, stock investors were doing something different: buying, and looking beyond America to do it. Global equity funds took in $50.99 billion in the latest week, the most in seven weeks, led by a record-setting rush into European funds.
Key takeaways
| Fund type | Net flow, week to Nov. 11 |
|---|---|
| Global equity funds (total) | +$50.99 billion |
| European equity funds | +$35.13 billion |
| U.S. equity funds | +$6.6 billion |
| Asian equity funds | +$6.15 billion |
| Emerging-market equity funds | +$4.65 billion |
| Global bond funds | −$507.89 million |
| Money market funds | −$37.48 billion |

About two-thirds of all the new money went into Europe. That's unusual. For years, U.S. stocks, and especially big technology companies, have soaked up most of the world's investment.
Two things changed the mood:
Investors appear to be spreading their bets instead of leaving the market.
Money market funds are where investors park cash. They lost $37.48 billion in the week, after taking in $174.22 billion the week before. Some of that cash moved into shares.
Bond funds, meanwhile, had their first outflow in eight weeks. With U.S. producer inflation at 6.5% and more rate hikes expected, bonds have become less appealing.
These figures cover the week to Wednesday, Nov. 11. That's before Nvidia's CEO resigned on Thursday and before Friday's sell-off in tech. Next week's numbers will show whether the buying survived.
It's a tale of two markets:
| Stocks | Crypto | |
|---|---|---|
| Fund flows | +$50.99 billion in a week | −$1.91 billion from Bitcoin ETFs in seven sessions |
| Mood | Rotating toward Europe | Bitcoin below $64,000 |
That tells you something useful. Investors haven't given up on risk altogether; they're being choosy. Money is moving toward companies with solid earnings and away from the most volatile assets. For crypto, the encouraging reading is that the cash exists and is willing to be invested. The discouraging one is that, for now, it's going elsewhere.
One bridge between the two worlds opened this week: 200+ European stocks are now tradable as tokens.
Next week's fund-flow report will capture the Nvidia shock. Also watch Nvidia's results on Tuesday and the Fed meeting on Dec. 8–9. Our crypto glossary explains "money market fund" and "fund flows".
