U.S. equity funds took it on the chin Thursday as investors poured cash into U.S. fixed-income and international equity ETFs amid growing tariff and inflation fears, and a so-so showing by U.S. chipmaker [Nvidia Corp.](/stock/nvda/)

Fixed-income funds saw net inflows of $2.28 billion and international ETFs had a healthy influx of $1.48 billion. Meanwhile, U.S. equity issues booked a mere $593.8 million on the day. Overall, assets under management rose 0.03% to $10.8 trillion from the previous day.

Leading the ETF exodus was the tech-heavy [**Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ)**](https://www.etf.com/qqq), which relinquished $1.8 billion, followed closely by $1.33 billion that fled the [**iShares Russell 2000 ETF (IWM)**](https://www.etf.com/iwm), which tracks U.S. small-cap stocks.

The [**iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF (IVV)**](https://www.etf.com/ivv) led gainers with $836 million worth of flows, and right behind it was the [**Schwab Short-Term US Treasury ETF (SCHO)**](https://www.etf.com/scho) with $609.2 million.
