In October, FMS investors significantly increased their equity allocation, marking the largest rise since June 2020, according to a report by Bank of America (BofA). Household equity allocation also reached notable levels. This surge in equity allocation reflects a strong market sentiment driven by fear of missing out (FOMO). Concurrently, there was a notable shift in investment preferences, with allocation to staples falling at the fastest pace since 2005, while allocation to consumer discretionary saw its biggest monthly increase on record since 2005.
