Total value of U.S. stock market is $95T+$46T for bond market, of housing, $33T and commercial real estate, $17T. That reflects the breakdown of "where people invest".
Because bonds make no sense by themselves and are only needed for rebalancing of stocks, 74% of investment goes into 'stock market'.
