No, that money wasn't invested in stocks, bonds or securities - it was stuff like Honda and Mercedes factories. Even more went into the markets - >>Complementing that flow of direct investment was more than $450 billion worth of portfolio investment -- that is, net purchases of stocks, bonds and other such long-term securities. And the portfolio flow has continued to soar this year. According to recent U.S. Treasury figures, portfolio investment reached $155 billion in the first three months of the year, by far the highest level in history. Almost $100 billion of that money came from Europe, though a portion of it may have been purchases made by European financial institutions or brokers on behalf of individuals or firms in other parts of the world.<<
