Investors added $11.1 billion to U.S.-listed ETFs this week, adding to their strong haul from May. Inflows for the week—which was shortened due to the Memorial Day holiday—included $1 billion of creations for U.S. equity ETFs, $5.7 billion for international equity ETFs and $2.8 billion for U.S. fixed income ETFs.

Year-to-date net inflows for all U.S.-listed ETFs now stand at $403 billion, well ahead of the $160.1 billion seen at this same time a year ago.

Taking a look at the top weekly inflows list, the iShares Global Financials ETF (IXG) and the iShares GSCI Commodity Dynamic Roll Strategy ETF (COMT) took the lead, each with inflows of more than $1.1 billion. Both funds more than doubled their assets during the week.

Meanwhile, the Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets ETF (VWO), the Vanguard Total International Stock ETF (VXUS) and the iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (IEMG) also saw strong interest among investors looking for international stock exposure.

On the outflows side of the ledger, the Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) topped the list, with redemptions of $1.6 billion, followed by the iShares Russell 1000 Growth ETF (IWF) and the iShares iBoxx USD Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF (LQD), each with more than $1 billion of redemptions.

Tech and growth stocks edged slightly higher this week, continuing their recovery from their lows in May.
