Investor Demand For High Yield Funds Spikes In September

FYI: Lipper’s High Yield Funds peer group (including both mutual funds and ETFs) has taken in almost $5.0 billion in net new money over the last two fund-flows trading weeks. This is the best two-week result for the group since mid-December 2016, when high yield funds had total net inflows of $5.8 billion. This surge has corrected a mini-slump that the peer group suffered through in August (net outflows just shy of $5.0 billion) and puts it back on track to record its first annual net inflow since 2016. To put this in perspective, high yield funds have taken in $15.7 billion in net new money for the year to date after experiencing their worst annual net outflow ever in 2018 (-$45.7 billion) and seeing money leave their coffers in five of the previous six years.
Regards,
Ted
