U.S.-listed ETFs pulled in $38.3 billion during the week ended Thursday, June 17, boosting the year-to-date inflows to a stunning $455.8 billion. That compares with year-to-date inflows at this time in 2020 of just $198.4 billion, meaning this year’s numbers have more than doubled. U.S. equity ETFs, in particular, dominated during the week, pulling in $27.3 billion, up from just $7.5 billion in inflows last week.
There are now $6.5 billion in assets under management by U.S.-listed ETFs, compared to approximately $4.4 billion during the same week last year.
**US Equities Continue Charge**
U.S. equity-focused funds claimed the top seven spots for the ETFs with the largest inflows this week, amounting to a combined total of nearly $15 billion in flows. Vanguard dominated creations, with five of its ETFs claiming spots in the top 10, with roughly $12 billion in new flows.
The [**Vanguard Growth ETF (VUG)**](https://www.etf.com/VUG) led the way during the week, posting $2.8 billion in inflows. It was followed closely by the [**Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI)**](https://www.etf.com/vti) and the [**iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV)**](https://www.etf.com/ivv), which each pulled in roughly $2.5 billion.
Interestingly, the [**SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY)**](https://www.etf.com/spy) led outflows for the week, with a loss of $2.4 billion. Given the fact that so many U.S. equity ETFs overshadowed the leading creations, it seems likely that some investors may have simply been rotating into lower-cost products. Both VTI and IVV charge an expense ratio of 0.03%, while SPY charges 0.9%.
**Junk Bonds Retreat**
Two junk bond ETFs found their way into the top 10 ETFs for outflows during the week. The [**iShares iBoxx USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (HYG)**](https://www.etf.com/hyg) claimed the No. 2 spot after SPY, with a loss for the week of $1.1 billion. The [**SPDR Bloomberg Barclays High Yield Bond ETF (JNK)**](https://www.etf.com/jnk) was in the No. 8 spot, with a loss of $437 million.
With the Fed projecting inflation of more than 3% through 2021 and potentially above 2% through 2023, it’s not surprising the [i](https://www.etf.com/SHY#overview)[**Shares 1-3 Year Treasury Bond ETF (SHY)**](https://www.etf.com/SHY#overview) lost $836.7 million through outflows in the week.
That compares to the [**iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT)**](https://www.etf.com/TLT) , which posted inflows of $963.9 million in the same period after the Fed made multiple calls that short-term inflation pressures would subside as the broader economy recovers from the sugar high generated from pent-up spending as the U.S. continues to emerge from COVID-19 lockdowns.
