English translation:cash levels/holdings
Explanation:
Your context isn't entirely clear, but since you've headed your question "stock exchange news", I'm assuming they're talking about the market as a whole rather than one fund. However, I think my translation works either way.

It means that more equities were added to portfolios (or the portfolio), so less was held in cash.

Example sentence(s):
  • A Bank of America fund manager survey found cash levels were at 5.8 percent in October — the highest since 2001... A 1 percent to 5 percent cash holding probably won't change much in terms of reducing risk."
