Investors pour money into stocks, helping propel the rally. - Apr. 12, 2013

Investors have been rushing off the sidelines this year and show no signs of letting up.

So far, they've pumped more than $60 billion into mutual funds and ETFs that hold U.S. stocks, according to research firm TrimTabs.

That's already more than any full calendar year since 2004. And if the pace keeps up, this year's inflow would be the largest since 2000.

Investors dove right in at the start of the year, pouring more than $30 billion into U.S. stocks in January, but inflows in February were barely positive.

It could belong here, depending on how much of that money is because the FED is buying to pump it up.

You are correct. The FED's QE 4 creating a Trillion new dollars out of thin air in 2013 certainly has artificially kept interest rates low and made stocks more attractive.

But since he didn't mention that, it seems off topic.

I was a big buyer at the bottom, but I won't be pumping more money into the stock market other than my typical 401K contributions.

Are you not aware of QE infinity ? $85 billion a month is pumped into the system by the Fed Reserve and there's no end date.
