U.S. equities continue to lead with nearly $5.8 billion in flows, particularly through the Invesco QQQ Trust Series I (QQQ). However, international equity ETFs like the iShares MSCI World ETF (URTH) and iShares Core MSCI EAFE ETF (IEFA) saw a resurgence, adding $960 million in net flows. Investors also allocated $1.7 billion to U.S. fixed income ETFs. Conversely, gold and the ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK) experienced significant outflows, while small-cap stocks struggled to attract interest as investors favored large-cap tech and growth stocks.
