A second-straight record day for the S&P 500 saw investors pile into the venerable SPY ETF: Here are the daily ETF fund flows for Feb. 20, 2025.
The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) pulled in more than $4 billion in new assets Wednesday as the S&P 500 index closed at a record-high for a second straight day, bringing the exchange-traded fund's total assets under management to $636 billion, according to etf.com daily fund flows data.

On the outflows side, the Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLV) experienced outflows of $628.8 million, while the Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLY) saw $452.7 million exit the fund. The VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH) recorded outflows of $371 million.
U.S. equity funds led all categories with over $7.9 billion in new assets, while commodity ETFs added $716 million. International equity funds pulled in $1.4 billion. Meanwhile, leveraged ETFs saw outflows of $131 million and all ETFs recorded total net inflows of $11.9 billion for the day.
