BofA institutional clients dump stocks at historic rate, retail keeps buying
-- In its latest equity client flow trends note, Bank of America analysts revealed a notable divergence in equity flows, with "Institutional selling accelerat[ing] vs hedge funds & retail buying." Last week, despite the S&P 500 rising 1.5%, BofA's clients were "modest net sellers of U.S. equities," driven by single stock sales, though ETFs saw inflows. The selling was primarily fueled by "institutional clients, who have sold for five weeks straight." BofA states that "Cumulative selling by this group YTD is the largest of any comparable period in our data history and the largest since '17 when normalized by market cap." In contrast, "Hedge funds were buyers for a second week," and "Private clients also were buyers and have now been buyers in 25 of the past 26 weeks (a record buying streak in our history)," said the bank. Corporate client buybacks also "accelerated week-on-week and were above typical seasonal levels for the first time in four weeks." Clients divested from stocks in five sectors, with "Staples," "Financials," and "Comm. Services" leading the outflows. Conversely, "Consumer Discretionary saw the biggest inflows, with inflows for 7 straight weeks (the longest recent buying streak of any sector)." A preference for domestically oriented sectors over globally-exposed ones was also observed, with clients being "bigger buyers (or smaller sellers) of domestics for the last six weeks." BofA's valuation work suggests that tariffs and de-globalization are largely "priced in" for domestically-oriented stocks. In the ETF space, clients reportedly bought for the first time in three weeks, favoring "Blend and Value ETFs" while selling "Growth ETFs."

Sacramento Railyards soccer stadium plan faces key city council vote
A key Sacramento city council vote deciding the future of Republic FC's new soccer stadium is set for Tuesday. Plans for Republic FC's new home, an expandable 12,000-seat facility, can't come to life without figuring out how to cover infrastructure in the area – things like roadways, pedestrian bike lanes, and traffic lights that the city estimates will to cost north of $90 million. Tuesday's vote will be to approve a special tax district that the city is looking to use to cover the cost. "I think this one is a good investment. We're not investing, subsidizing the stadium," said Sacramento Mayor Kevin McCarty. The Railyards development will cost an estimated $321 million at least, according to city numbers, with most of it privately funded, like Republic FC's stadium and the area around it. Developers of the project – including Indomitable Ventures, formed by Republic FC – would pay for the infrastructure costs up front, then be reimbursed through funds generated by the special tax district. "We're subsidizing the infrastructure by giving a return on property taxes that but for this project wouldn't be generated anyways," McCarty said. If approved by the council, the deal would commit the city to paying more than $90 million to the project developers in the form of future tax revenue from the soccer stadium and central shops. McCarty says construction would start this year if the plan passes. The stadium is planned to be opened by 2027.
