(Reuters) - Investment flows into U.S. money market funds surged to the highest in over a year in the week to May 26, on caution as investors awaited U.S. data expected to offer clues on inflation. Refinitiv Lipper data showed U.S. money market funds drew in a net $66.6 billion in the week, the biggest amount since April 2020, with investors concerned about a rise in inflation levels and the impact on the direction of U.S. monetary policy. Meanwhile, U.S. equity funds attracted a net $5.06 billion, as stocks rallied somewhat after U.S. Federal Reserve officials reaffirmed a dovish monetary policy stance.
