Denver Post's "Out of the frying pan to little gain" says, "Investors, many fleeing the stock market, have poured $215 billion into money market funds so far this year. That's grown the base of assets in these funds to a record $3.36 trillion. Unfortunately, all that cash is producing less income as the Federal Reserve has been cutting short-term interest rates, says Peter Crane, who runs Crane Data, a tracker of money funds. The average yield is 3.64 percent, down from September's 5.06 percent." Also, see Jane Kim of The Wall Street Journal's "Good Deals for Income Investors".
