The S&amp;P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average both recovered from a brutal correction on Monday to end the week in the positive, but ETFs have yet to recoup their losses.

U.S.-listed ETFs lost more than $29.6 billion to outflows from Sept, 17 to Sept. 23, according to ETF.com data provider FactSet, with approximately $27.5 billion in outflows on Monday alone.

A quartet of fears swept across the market between a potential default of Chinese property developer Evergrande, a Federal Reserve meeting that ultimately signaled tighter monetary policy on the way, brinkmanship in Washington over the debt ceiling and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic heading into the winter.

**Broad Indexes Retreat**

Broad vanilla index funds have been steady gainers through most of 2021 but spent this week filling the outflow leaders chart.

The [**SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (SPY)**](https://etf.com/SPY) had the largest outflow of funds, with $5.8 billion being pulled, while the [**Vanguard Extended Market ETF (VXF)**](https://etf.com/VXF) suffered the largest loss of percentage of assets under management, with a 16.21% drawdown.

The [**Vanguard Growth ETF (VUG)**](https://etf.com/VUG), the [**Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG)**](https://etf.com/VIG) and the [**Vanguard Mid-Cap ETF (VO)**](https://etf.com/VO) rounded out the top five losers, with outflows of 3.3%, 4.3% and 4.6%, respectively.

**Mixed Bag Of Inflow Leaders**

The leaders chart for the week is varied, with some gains suggesting a portion of investors think deals were to be found in the correction. The [**iShares Russell 2000 ETF (IWM)**](https://etf.com/IWM) led gainers by dollar amount with inflows of $2.2 billion and a 3.3% gain in AUM. The [**SPDR S&amp;P Oil &amp; Gas Exploration &amp; Production ETF (XOP)**](https://etf.com/XOP) was the largest gainer by AUM percentage, adding 9.0%, or $311.3 million, in net flows.

Investors also made buys into several sectors of the fixed income space. The [**iShares Broad USD Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF (USIG)**](https://etf.com/USIG) led that segment, with a gain of 5.5%, while the [**iShares 7-10 Year Treasury Bond ETF (IEF)**](https://etf.com/IEF) and the [**PIMCO Enhanced Short Maturity Active ETF (MINT)**](https://etf.com/MINT) were also in the top 10 list, with 3.2% and 2.2% in inflows, respectively.
