This prediction is primarily supported by retail investors, while the incremental contributions from hedge funds and institutional investors are limited [1][4]. Retail Investor Dynamics - Retail investors are projected to be the main driving force behind stock purchases, with a net buying total of $630 billion expected for 2025.

It anticipates a resumption of buying from retail investors starting in July [1][4].

Structural selling from overseas institutions is also exerting downward pressure on US stocks [5][10]. - Macro hedge funds have returned to high positions after recovering from losses in April, but they are not expected to be major market drivers in the second half of the year, with the exception of quantitative funds that may still have room to increase their positions [7][10].
