The Investment Company Institute released its latest "Money Market Fund Assets" report, as well as its monthly "Trends in Mutual Fund Investing" and "Month-End Portfolio Holdings of Taxable Money Funds" for February 2023 on Thursday. Both asset series show money fund totals hitting record levels, with the new weekly statistics putting ICI's MMF totals at just under $5.2 trillion, after breaking the $5.1 trillion barrier for the first time ever the week prior. The previous 2 weeks were the 5th and 6th largest weekly increases ever and the largest in history if you exclude 4 coronavirus lockdown panic weeks in March and April 2020. The failure of Silicon Valley Bank has raised concerns over uninsured bank deposits, and large investors are fleeing into money funds. Over the past 52 weeks, money fund assets have risen $608 billion, or 13.2%, with Retail MMFs rising by $436 billion (30.4%) and Inst MMFs rising by $171 billion (5.4%). ICI shows assets up by $463 billion, or 9.8%, year-to-date in 2023, with Institutional MMFs up $267 billion, or 8.7% and Retail MMFs up $196 billion, or 11.7%. (According to Crane Data's separate Money Fund Intelligence Daily series, money fund assets hit a record on Wednesday but `declined by $14.0 billion on Thursday. Note that ICI's asset totals don't include a number of funds tracked by the SEC and Crane Data, so they're over $400 billion lower than Crane's asset series.)
