Money market funds now manage a record-breaking $7.4 trillion equivalent to roughly 15% of the S&P 500's market cap, up from 13% in February.

That’s a staggering $2 trillion increase in just two years.

All this, even after the Fed slashed rates by 100bps since September 2024.

The Crane 100 Index reports an average yield of 4.14% across the top money funds.

In today’s market, capital is clearly favoring safety.
