Investors, heartened by an ongoing stream of economic data,
plowed $3.6 billion into
ETFs
in the past week and, combined with a rising market, total
U.S.-listed ETF assets rose to a record of almost $1.436
trillion.
The Vanguard Short-Term Bond ETF (NYSEArca:BSV) was the past
week's most popular ETF, pulling in $476.9 million. A number of
other Vanguard funds littered the Top 10 creations list, including
the Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets Index ETF (NYSEArca:VWO), which
gathered $177 million.
The 10 least popular funds included the gold bullion ETF, SPDR
Gold Shares (NYSEArca:GLD) some of the market's biggest bond funds,
including the $21 billion iShares Barclays TIPS Bond Fund
(NYSEArca:TIP) and the SPDR Barclays High Yield Bond ETF
(NYSEArca:JNK). The SPDR Gold (NYSEArca:GLD) lost $368.6 million,
while JNK and TIP bled $405.6 million and $144.6 million,
respectively.
The presence of gold and junk bonds on the redemptions table was
consistent with growing views that the economy is finally on a
definitive trajectory of healing, after more than four years of
volatile trade and choppy economic data in the aftermath of the
market meltdown in September 2008.
