Money-market funds saw a small outflow last week (surprisingly small given how close to Tax-Day we are), leaving them still near record highs over $6 Trillion (and the trend of increased deposits at banks has been accelerating)...

Loan volumes shrank significantly last week with Small Banks seeing volumes tumble $12BN - the most since the SVB crisis. Large banks also saw loan volumes shrink, by $2.8BN...

Bank reserves picked up last week - after diving the prior week - but still remain hugely divergent from US equity market cap...
