Equity Inflows and Money Market Outflows Both Collapse

Industry fund flows returned to positive territory this week, in part thanks to the collapse of money fund outflows and despite the collapse of equity fund inflows, according to the latest data from the Lipper team at Refinitiv.

In the U.S. Weekly FundFlows Insight report for the week ending September 8, Tom Roseen, head of research services at Refinitiv Lipper, reveals that $3.8 billion net flowed into mutual funds and ETFs in the U.S. this week. That's the industry's sixth week of net inflows in the past seven weeks, and it's up from $1.1 billion in net outflows last week.

Fixed income funds led the pack this week, thanks to $7.1 billion in net inflows, up from $6.3 billion last week. Equity funds brought in $1.1 billion in net inflows, down from $12.7 billion, while money market funds suffered $4.4 billion in net outflows, down from $20.1 billion.

Equity ETFs brought in $3.8 billion in net inflows this week, their second week in a row of net inflows but a drop from $19.2 billion last week. Conventional (i.e. non-ETF) equity funds suffered $3.1 billion in net outflows this week; it was their 11th week in a row of net outflows, and it was down from $6.5 billion last week.

Within conventional equity funds, domestic equity funds suffered $3.1 billion in net outflows this week, their 11th week in a row of net outflows and a drop from $5.7 billion last week. Conventional non-domestic equity funds brought in $367 million in net inflows this week, their ninth week of inflows in the past ten weeks.

On the fixed income side, ETFs brought in $1.9 billion in net inflows this week (their seventh week of inflows in a row), up from $1.8 billion last week. Conventional fixed income funds brought in $5 billion in net inflows (their fifth week of inflows in a row), up from $4.5 billion.
