I'm wondering where the money goes when there's big down days on the stock market.
I mean let's say there's a 5% down day on the sp500.
Does all that money from the sales all go to cash or is it going to bonds?
Cramer I think said something about “its a mistake to think that market sell offs go into cash and that rather it's just being moved around to other assets.”
So let's say we have a 20% sell off over the coming months.
Is most of that money making its way into value, treasuries, etc? Or maybe energy? Which I assume is considered value.
I'm sure a good deal is also sitting in cash by institutions waiting for certain entry points into certain assets also.
But in general I would think that during 20 to 30% corrections that eventually that money will find its way back into stocks at some point.
I mean treasuries aren't going to give a positive real return nor bonds I would assume with 9% inflation.
