How investors see US economic collapse?
First it was JPMorgan, then Morgan Stanley, now it's Goldman Sachs.
 Late last week, JPMorgan's "other" quant, the house bear Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou published a report in which he said that while he maintains a risk-on, he warned that "Investors should start building up hedges against the risk of a repeat of the past two weeks' yield curve inversion episode." Panigirtzoglou also observed that "the relative signs of complacency in US equity markets relative to rate markets implied by Figure 1 illustrate the need to hedge our equity overweight." As the chart below shows, whereas equity markets now price in just an 8% chance of recession and junk bonds only 6%, bond markets are virtually certain a recession is coming, with implied odds of over 70%.
See Chart:

And now it's Goldman's turn.
In a note published on Monday afternoon, Goldman strategist Alessio Rizzi discussed something we have repeatedly touch on, namely that despite being one of the strongest rallies for risky assets, flows into equity funds have been abnormally weak YTD. In fact, as BofA recently noted, 2019 has been the worst year for stock outflows since 2008.
See Chart:

Expounding on a paradox first touched upon by Deutsche Bank in February, the Goldman strategist writes that "historically fund flows tend to be closely correlated with equity performance, but the recent divergence is one of the largest since the GFC." And so, echoing the bullish thesis presented by JPM's Marko Kolanovic, Rizzi writes that "this metric suggests a lot of investors have not participated in the equity rally and this has increased "FOMO" (fear of missing out)." 
The explanation for this divergence is obvious: a more dovish Fed has boosted the fixed income aggregate, which attracted most of the flows YTD - roughly $55 bn in credit funds and $30 bn in government bond funds. Meanwhile, within equity, fund flows in EM equity remained stronger than DM, supported by better China data, while Europe continued to be the least favored region.
See Charts:

To Goldman, the combination of worse macro fundamentals, or "bad news is good news", investor preference towards the growth factor and political uncertainty explains the declining positioning toward equities. However, other risk sentiment metrics are  suggesting a more constructive view among investors in recent weeks. In particular, future positioning is now close to January 2018 highs, and RAI momentum - which tracks risk aversion over short-term horizons - has increased materially. As a result, whereas overall investor positioning continues to pick up, it remains relatively neutral and still less bullish compared to January 2018 levels.
See Chart:

And judging by Goldman's conclusion, not even the FDIC-insured hedge fund is especially enamored with its economic optimism, which is why, after JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley, Rizzi writes that "we remain constructive in our asset allocation, but we would add protection hedges as risky assets continue to outperform and volatility resets lower."
In other words, as of this moment all three big US banks are effectively taking profits. Which, considering we are about to enter the worst earnings season since 2016...
See Chart:

... means that the banks - if one reads between the lines, since the house calls are still all decidedly bullish especially, at JPMorgan which remains convinced that S&P 3,000 is just around the corner - are now actively dumping risk to retail investors, who at least for now, are happy to buy it all.
