Investors poured $2.43 billion into the SPDR S'P 500 ETF (SPY), as the equities market drifted lower a day before the Federal Reserve was set to begin a two-policy meeting at which it is expected to consider whether more measures aimed at boosting the economy are warranted.
Overall, SPY was the leading edge of net inflows on Monday, July 30, of $4.59 billion, and total U.S.-listed ETF assets rose to $1.210 trillion from $1.204 trillion on Friday, July 27, according to data compiled by IndexUniverse.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 2.65 points to 13,073, as markets turned placid before the Fed renders its decision on Wednesday regarding more stimulus. Some in the market are hoping the central bank unveils new quantitative easing, which is likely to lift stock and commodity prices.
Yesterday’s least popular ETF was the iShares Russell 2000 Value Index Fund (IWN), which suffered outflows of $192.4 million.
