ETF investors poured $36.3 billion into U.S.-listed exchange-traded funds during the week ending Friday, April 11, bringing year-to-date ETF inflows to more than $340 billion.

The flows came amid a week of extreme market volatility. On Wednesday, the S&amp;P 500 surged 9.5%, its biggest one-day gain since 2008. The Nasdaq-100 did even better, jumping 12%—also its best day since the financial crisis. Meanwhile, bond yields soared, with the 10-year and 30-year Treasury yields shooting higher in a move that spooked policymakers and rattled investors.

Despite the turmoil, the S&amp;P 500 ended the week well off its lows—more than 7% higher than Tuesday’s close, when the index had flirted with bear market territory—as hopes grew that President Donald Trump might ease off his escalating trade war.

## Equity ETFs Lead Asset Class Flows

U.S. equity ETFs were the biggest beneficiaries of the rebound, pulling in $35.1 billion. That dwarfs flows into every other asset class. In contrast, international equity ETFs saw outflows of $2.8 billion, while U.S. fixed-income ETFs had modest inflows of $727 million.

Among individual ETFs, the [**SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (SPY)**](/spy) and the [**Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF (VOO)**](/voo) led the pack, hauling in $19.3 billion and $11.3 billion, respectively.

Other notable inflow magnets included the [**SPDR Bloomberg 1-3 Month T-Bill ETF (BIL)**](/bil), the [**iShares 0-3 Month Treasury Bond ETF (SGOV)**](/sgov), the [**iShares 7-10 Year Treasury Bond ETF (IEF)**](/ief), the [**Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3x Shares (SOXL)**](/soxl), and the [**SPDR Gold Shares (GLD)**](/gld).

## Gold Hits Another Record High

The price of gold hit fresh record highs above $3,200 per ounce on Friday as the U.S. dollar briefly hit a three-year low.

On the flip side, the [**iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF (IVV)**](/ivv) saw outflows of $8.4 billion, the most of any fund.

The [**Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLF)**](/xlf) lost $1.7 billion. High-yield bond ETFs also saw redemptions, including the [**SPDR Bloomberg High Yield Bond ETF (JNK)**](/jnk), which shed $1.4 billion amid a notable widening in junk bond spreads.

The [**KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (KWEB)**](/kweb) also lost more than $1 billion as trade tensions between the U.S. and China remained sky high.

For a full list of the week’s top inflows and outflows, see the tables below.
