Overall, ETFs pulled out $6.2 billion in capital last week, taking year-to-date inflows to $279.1 billion. U.S. equity ETFs led the way higher with $3.7 billion in outflows, followed by $1.3 billion in U.S. fixed-income ETFs and $629.8 million in inverse ETFs, per etf.com.

iShares Core S&P 500 ETF IVV, iShares 0-3 Month Treasury Bond ETF SGOV, SPDR Bloomberg 1-3 Month T-Bill ETF BIL, Vanguard S&P 500 ETF VOO and iShares Russell 2000 ETF IWM dominated the top creation list last week.

Wall Street extended the decline for the third week due to a rise in yields. After hitting a trough of 3.6% in April, yield on the 10-year Treasury note hit an almost 16-year high to above 4.3%, driven by expectations that the Fed will keep interest rates higher for a longer span to fight inflation. The 2-year Treasury yield rose to above 5%.

A raft of strong economic data kept alive fears of interest rates remaining higher for longer. U.S. retail sales came in better than expected, rising 0.7% in July. Additionally, inflation rose for the first time in July after 12 straight months of decline. The Consumer Price Index rose 3.2% year over year, up from an increase of 3% in June, which was the lowest in over two years. Although inflation has dropped from a peak of 9.1%, it is still significantly above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target.
