Lipper: Despite Strong Equity Market Returns, Investors Have Turned To Safe-Haven Plays YTD

TedTed
in The Bullpen
FYI: For the Lipper fund-flows week ended Wednesday, September 12, 2018, investors took their collective foot off the pedal as they focused on the escalating trade-war rhetoric between the U.S. and China and the large currency declines for Argentina and Turkey.

For the second week in three investors were net redeemers of fund assets (including those of conventional funds and ETFs), withdrawing $3.3 billion. Fund investors padded the coffers of taxable fixed income funds (+$2.4 billion) but were net redeemers of money market funds (-$3.8 billion), equity funds (-$1.8 billion), and municipal bond funds (-$136 million).
Regards,
Ted
