floating capital


Explanation:
I have reservations about the below definition

If it is capital seeking a home that affords the best returns, the financial press usually refers to 'freely moving capital', or in a negative sense, 'capital sloshing around'.

On the other hand, it could be 'available' or 'uncommitted' capital.
