Which part of these investments "funnel back into" the economy?

The rich do not invest back into the economy. That's a campaign trail lie we've all been fed. They amass and hold wealth, very little of which contributes to the economy.

The poor and middle class are the largest commodity buyers, usually from the companies owned by the exceedingly wealthy, who by and large invest their money away from commodities.
