iShares Russell 1000 Growth ETF Price & Performance (IWF)

The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) attracted $1 billion in inflows as investors sought safe havens during a market downturn. Meanwhile, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) saw $1 billion in outflows, reflecting heightened caution. Total ETF net inflows reached $4 billion for the day, driven by fixed-income funds.1

Growth stock ETFs, including the Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ), experienced notable outflows as the market turned lower. Investors pulled $2 billion from QQQ, reflecting shifting sentiment in tech-heavy sectors. This comes amid broader declines in growth stocks, which have underperformed compared to value stocks in recent months.2
