U.S.-listed ETFs just hit a new milestone with $43 billion in weekly inflows through Nov. 7âenough to push 2025âs year-to-date total past $1.14 trillion, officially surpassing 2024âs full-year figure. Equity funds took center stage in this rally, with three heavyweights leading the charge: the $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ claimed the top spot with $12 billion in fresh capital, followed by the $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ at $2.8 billion and the $Vanguard S&P 500 ETF(VOO)$ at $2.4 billion. Notably, VOOâs year-to-date inflows have now crossed $105 billion, solidifying its position as 2025âs biggest asset gatherer among ETFs.
While high-growth tech saw some pullback, it didnât deter all investors. The $VanEck Semiconductor ETF(SMH)$ raked in $1.3 billion, as traders jumped at the chance to buy AI-linked chip stocks at discounted prices.
On the flip side, several funds faced notable outflows. The $SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust(DIA)$ led the redemptions with $1.7 billion in outflows, while the $Vanguard Information Technology ETF(VGT)$ shed $1.3 billion and the$Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth ETF(SCHG)$ lost $935 million. Crypto-related funds also struggled: the $iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF(IBIT)$ saw nearly $600 million in outflows after bitcoin briefly dropped below $100,000 for the first time since Juneâmarking a roughly 20% decline from the fundâs October highs to last weekâs lows.
From record-breaking ETF inflows to bitcoinâs slip below the $100k mark, last week laid bare clear market splits: investors flocked to broad-market ETFs while paring back on certain growth and crypto exposures.
