Investors poured $17 billion into U.S.-listed ETFs during the week ending May 30, despite a shortened trading schedule due to the Memorial Day holiday on Monday, May 26.

That brings year-to-date ETF inflows to $442 billion, putting 2025 on track to be one of the strongest years ever for fund flows.

U.S. equity ETFs led the way last week, picking up $6.3 billion in net inflows. U.S. fixed-income ETFs followed with $3.6 billion, while international equity and international fixed-income ETFs added $3 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively.

Stock markets climbed last week as optimism held steady despite escalating tensions between the U.S. and China. Both sides [accused](https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/business/money-report/china-says-the-u-s-undermined-geneva-trade-deal-after-trump-accuses-beijing-of-violations/3757991/) each other of violating the temporary trade truce struck in May, but investors largely shrugged off the noise, betting the situation would stabilize.

Bond yields edged lower but remained near recent highs. The long end of the curve remains under pressure, with the 30-year Treasury yield stuck near 5%.

## QQQ, IBIT &amp; VGT Dominate

The [**Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ)**](/QQQ) led all ETFs with nearly $3 billion of inflows. The [**iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT)**](/IBIT) followed with $1.5 billion, while the [**Vanguard Information Technology ETF (VGT)**](/VGT) was close behind with $1.1 billion.

Tech remains a dominant theme, fueled by the continued boom in artificial intelligence. Other tech-heavy ETFs, such as the [**VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH)**](/MH) and the [**Invesco Nasdaq 100 ETF (QQQM)**](/QQQM), also landed in the top 10.

Bitcoin prices cooled after hitting record highs above $111,000 in the previous week, last trading around $104,000. Still, interest in crypto remains strong.

Gold demand also held up. The [**SPDR Gold Shares (GLD)**](/GLD) took in $820 million as prices consolidated near recent highs. Despite a stronger stock market, gold has remained resilient as investors continue to view the metal as a strategic hedge.

Rounding out the top 10 was the [**Global X Defense Tech ETF (SHLD)**](/SHLD), which saw $402 million of inflows amid continued demand for defense-related exposure.

On the outflows side of the ledger, the [**iShares Russell 2000 ETF (IWM)**](/IWM), the [**SPDR Bloomberg 1-3 Month T-Bill ETF (BIL)**](/BIL) and the [**iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF (IVV)**](/IVV) topped the list.

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