FYI: The first half of 2019 was marked by investor jitters centered on slowing growth, trade wars and geopolitical risk, all of which led to a rush to safety in the form of fixed income ETFs. The first six months of the year were also marked by a healthy appetite for risk, with the S&P 500 penciling in new record highs, and its strongest start to a year in two decades.
This has been a market where just about everything seems to be working well. And ETF investors have put money to work across various asset classes and segments at a pace that now exceeds that of 2018’s.
