Hueler’s FIRSTSource Market data reveals that second quarter 2001 cash flows resumed to similar levels as portrayed in prior quarters.  While first quarter 2001 showed the strongest positive cash inflows into stable value in years, it appears second quarter cash flows were more in line with recent cash flow trends.  The positive first quarter 2001 inflows can be partly attributed to participants receiving their year end statements reflecting negative equity returns, and thus transferring into stable value due to their desire for a more stable, conservative investment option.  With the decline in the stock market and the most recent dip below 10,000, it will be interesting to see what the 3rd and 4th quarter of this year bring in terms of stable value cash flow.
