In the context of a decline in the U.S. stock market and a sluggish gold market, investors are pouring into U.S. Treasury bond ETFs on a large scale, with approximately $30 billion flowing in March, mainly concentrated in ultra-short-term products. The market lacks suitable safe-haven assets, and it is recommended to hold cash and wait patiently.

ME News message. On April 1 (UTC+8), Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas said on X that against the backdrop of a decline in U.S. equities and lackluster gold performance (as the market’s “zero correlation” premise failed, which took investors by surprise), investors are rushing in large numbers to U.S. Treasury ETFs. In March, U.S. Treasury ETF funds recorded net inflows of about $30 billion, more than double the recent monthly average level, mainly concentrated in ultra-short-term products such as SGOV and BIL. However, the market currently seems to have not many “defensive assets” suitable for investment, so the better strategy may be to hold cash and remain patient, waiting and watching. Earlier, Buffett disclosed that Berkshire Hathaway bought U.S. Treasuries worth $17 billion this week. (Source: ODAILY)
