5 Most Loved ETFs of Last Week Amid Market Turmoil
Read MoreHide Full Article
ETFs across various categories pulled in $16.1 billion in capital last week, pushing the year-to-date inflows to $532 billion. U.S. equity ETFs led the way with $9 billion in inflows, followed by inflows of $6.9 billion in U.S. fixed-income ETFs and $1.1 billion in international fixed-income ETFs.
iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV - Free Report) , Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO - Free Report) , iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT - Free Report) , iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF (AGG - Free Report) and Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3x Shares (SOXL) dominated the top creation list last week.
Wall Street saw dismal trading last week, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index falling 3%. This pushed the index into correction territory (more than 10% off its most recent peak on Jul 10). The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Index lost 2% each. The small-cap Russell 2000 Index, which took charge of the latest rally, fared even worse, posting a weekly loss of about 6.8% (read: Inverse ETFs Spike as Nasdaq Enters Correction).
The turmoil came after a softer-than-expected jobs data report spurred worries over a slowing U.S. economy and earnings from Amazon (AMZN - Free Report) and Intel (INTC - Free Report) failed to cheer. The labor market cooled in July as the economy added 114,000 jobs, 35% fewer than expected. Unemployment rose from 4.1% to 4.3%, the highest since October 2021, and represented the fourth consecutive monthly increase. The data prompted concerns about a recession.
The latest data from the Institute for Supply Management also indicates slowdown worries. Manufacturing activity fell in July, marking the fourth straight month of contraction.
