iShares Emerging Markets Infrastructure ETF Price & Performance (EMIF)

January's inflation data showed a cooling trend, providing some relief to investors concerned about Federal Reserve policies. Major indexes, however, remain down for February, with the Nasdaq dropping 5.5% and the S&P 500 losing 3%. Tech stocks like Nvidia and Tesla struggled, reflecting broader economic uncertainty.1

U.S.-listed ETFs saw nearly $50 billion in net inflows last week, dominated by equity funds. SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) attracted $15.3 billion, showcasing investor confidence in large-cap equities. However, Bitcoin-focused ETFs experienced significant outflows, reflecting a bearish sentiment in crypto markets.2

Emerging markets ETFs are delivering strong returns, with the Global X MSCI Argentina ETF (ARGT) leading at 71.75% year-to-date. These funds offer diversification and high growth potential but come with inherent risks. Investors are increasingly eyeing these markets for portfolio diversification.3
