ETFs across various categories pulled in $17 billion in capital last week, pushing year-to-date inflows to $442 billion. This has put 2025 on track to be one of the biggest years ever for ETF demand.
U.S. equity ETFs led the way with $6.3 billion in inflows, followed by $3.6 billion in U.S. fixed-income ETFs and $3 billion in international ETFs. Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ - Free Report) , iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT - Free Report) , Vanguard Information Technology ETF (VGT - Free Report) , Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO - Free Report) , and SPDR Gold Trust ETF (GLD - Free Report) dominated the top creation list last week.
Wall Street logged gains last week despite rising tensions between the United States and China. Both countries accused one another of breaching the temporary trade truce established in May. However, markets largely dismissed the rhetoric, betting on eventual stabilization. The Nasdaq Composite led the way, gaining 2.01% while the S&P 500 and Dow Jones rose 1.9% and 1.6%, respectively (read: 3 Factors That Could Boost Wall Street ETFs Despite Tariff Uncertainty).
Bond yields edged slightly lower but stayed close to recent highs. The long end of the yield curve remains under pressure, with the 30-year Treasury yield holding near 5%, signaling ongoing concerns about inflation and fiscal dynamics.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin prices retreated after reaching record highs above $111,000 the previous week, last trading around $104,000. Despite the pullback, enthusiasm for cryptocurrencies remains strong, with continued investor interest supporting the asset class. Gold demand also remained robust. Even amid a rising stock market, gold held its ground, underscoring its role as a strategic hedge in diversified portfolios.
