A slowing screech in money-market fund inflows hinted at a slowing prance of deposit outflows from the US home-based business banking map closing week (regardless of the indeniable reality that the closing three weeks agree with thought of MM inflows prime $300bn), nonetheless that changed into as soon as not what we seen, with deposits (ex huge time deposits) tumbling $131bn (on a seasonally-adjusted foundation)…
