The dash to cash has only just begun. Here’s what that means for stocks and bonds.

ملخص

The current buildup of cash by investors is reportedly lower than expected, with strategists at JPMorgan comparing it to the levels seen after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, indicating a potential further shift into cash. This could lead to decreased demand for stocks and bonds, putting downward pressure on their prices. The dash to cash may have only just begun, suggesting a risk-off environment.

Key Drivers
