This is one reason for the lower cash levels at stock mutual funds.

I am certainly one of them having bought several stock ETFs last year including VEU, ADRD, VV, VTI, AOA, and VV. Also, a lot of buying comes from overseas and from institutional investors. If the market turns lower, it will be due to other factors, such as the failure of the economy to mend as currently anticipated.
