Semiconductor ETFs recorded US$5.17B in outflows, led by $iShares Semiconductor ETF(SOXX)$ (-US$4.13B) and $VanEck Semiconductor ETF(SMH)$ (-US$1.04B).
Meanwhile, $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ and $iShares Core S&P 500 ETF(IVV)$ attracted US$4.58B combined, while fixed-income ETFs gained approximately US$1.83B.
This divergence suggests investors may be reducing concentrated semiconductor exposure rather than abandoning equities or AI entirely.
My take: B, broader equity ETFs. I favour diversified, unleveraged index investing through regular DCA rather than chasing sector momentum. However, QQQ remains technology-heavy, while IVV offers broader US sector exposure.
Bond ETFs such as $iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF(TLT)$ can provide diversification but remain sensitive to rising yields.
One day's flows cannot confirm a sustained rotation.
