4 Jul
Summary
- Investors injected $210 billion into US-listed ETFs in June.
- Year-to-date ETF inflows surpassed $1 trillion by June.
- US equity and fixed income funds saw significant investor interest.
In June, investors injected $210 billion into US-listed exchange-traded funds (ETFs), pushing the year-to-date total past $1 trillion. This inflow trajectory positions the market for a potential $2 trillion haul by year-end if current investment pace continues. US equity ETFs were the primary drivers, attracting $103 billion, while fixed income funds garnered $46 billion. International equity and leveraged products also saw substantial inflows.
The investment surge occurred during a period of strong market performance. US stocks reached record highs in the second quarter, with the S&P 500 gaining over 10% and the Nasdaq-100 advancing more than 20% by mid-year. International stocks also experienced a significant rally, increasing around 14%, though bonds offered only modest returns.
Leading the inflows were the iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) and the rapidly growing Roundhill Memory ETF (DRAM), which attracted nearly $10 billion. The iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) also saw considerable investment, collecting $4.1 billion. Notably, some ETFs experienced outflows, including the iShares MSCI EAFE Value ETF (EFV) and the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT).
