ETFs across various categories pulled in $19.5 billion in capital last week. International equity ETFs led the way with $8.6 billion in inflows, followed by inflows of $4.7 billion in U.S. equity ETFs and $2.4 billion in fixed-income ETFs. Notably, China ETFs registered strong inflows.
iShares China Large-Cap ETF (FXI - Free Report) , Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO - Free Report) , Schwab U.S. Large-Cap ETF (SCHX - Free Report) , iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV - Free Report) and Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF (ASHR - Free Report) dominated the top creation list last week.
The three main bourses wrapped up the week on a positive note, with the Dow Jones and S&P 500 touching new records. In fact, the S&P 500 Index topped 5,800 for the first time, given the solid start of the third-quarter earnings season with companies issuing bolder forecasts due to the Fed’s rate-cutting cycle. Additionally, the latest inflation report renewed investors’ confidence about easing pricing pressure. Inflation cooled down to 2.4% in September, down from 2.5% recorded in August and in line with market expectations of 2.3%-2.4%. The inflation rate peaked at a 41-year high of 8.9% in June 2022.
Investors continued to pile into China ETFs last week despite a sell-off in Chinese stocks.
