Institutional investors have poured billions into US equities while everyday traders keep selling.<\/p>\n

Those large accounts bought $4.1 billion in American stocks during the week ending September 18th, their third weekly purchase in the past four weeks, lifting the four-week average to $2.9 billion, reports <\/a>The Kobeissi Letter.<\/p>\n

Hedge funds added another $1.2 billion of buying over the same timeframe, pushing their own four-week average to $1.6 billion in net purchases.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, retail accounts moved the other way, selling $2.2 billion and extending an eighth straight week of outflows, with a four-week average weekly exit of $1.9 billion.<\/p>\n

While institutional investors are snapping up shares, not all names are benefiting from the buying spree. The Kobeissi Letter adds<\/a> that small-cap names are witnessing massive outflows.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Russell 2000 ETF (IWM)\u00a0posted -$3.3 billion in outflows last week, its 2nd-largest weekly outflow this year.<\/em><\/p>\n

This also marks its 3rd-largest weekly withdrawal in nine years.<\/em><\/p>\n

This comes as the S&P 500 has outperformed the Russell 2000 for five consecutive weeks, the longest streak in at least 12 months.<\/em><\/p>\n

This streak is on track to extend to six weeks, which would mark the longest stretch of S&P 500 outperformance over small caps in eight years.<\/em><\/p>\n

Since mid-August, the Russell 2000 has declined 7.3%, to its lowest level since June 10th.<\/em><\/p>\n

As a result, the ratio of the Russell 2000 to the Nasdaq 100 has fallen to 0.09, its lowest on record.<\/em><\/p>\n

Small-cap stocks are struggling as rates move higher.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
