Retail Investors Shift Gears: From Selling to Buying in April
In a notable turn of events, retail equity investors in the U.S. moved from substantial selling to buying stocks during April. This change likely stems from a complex reaction to the Trump administration’s trade announcements. In the initial week, retail investors offloaded over $7.48 billion in equities but rebounded by purchasing a net $7.32 billion in the subsequent weeks. This shift highlights resilience and strategy adjustments from investors who remain cautious yet engaged.
