ETFs across various categories pulled in $28.2 billion in capital last week, pushing the year-to-date inflows to $694 billion. U.S. equity ETFs led the way with $10.3 billion in inflows, followed by inflows of $8.6 billion in international equity ETFs and $5.8 billion in fixed-income ETFs.

The tensions in the Middle East intensified last week following Iran's missile attack on Israel. Iran launched about 200 ballistic missiles targeting Israel on Oct. 1, leading to growing fears of retaliation from Israel. The attack has accelerated tensions in the Middle East region, leading to risk-off trade. But blockbuster job reports regained investors’ confidence in the health of the economy, pushing stocks higher. Wall Street managed to end the week on a positive note after brutal trading early in the week.
The latest jobs data showed the biggest jump in six months in September, a drop in the unemployment rate and solid wage increases, pointing to a resilient economy. The United States added 254,000 jobs last month, up from a revised 159,000 in August, and unemployment dipped to 4.1% from 4.2% in August. All three major benchmarks notched their fourth straight positive weeks. Notably, the Dow Jones Industrial Average hit a new all-time high.
Coming to the international market, the Chinese stock market was the top gainer driven by the stimulus blitz, which includes interest rate cuts and freeing-up of cash for banks. This plowed billions of dollars into the ETFs targeting China stocks (read: A Few Reasons to Buy China ETFs Now).
