ETF Investors Are Ditching Corporate Credit For Treasury Bonds: Text & Video Presentation
FYI: Investors in exchange-traded funds are done with corporate bonds. At least that’s what you see in the recent flow numbers. Almost $1.4 billion has fled three popular debt ETFs over the past two days, according to Bloomberg data. Among them is the largest ETF tracking high-yield bonds, the iShares iBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (HYG), which recorded outflows of $715 million, the most since a three-week selloff over a month ago.
