US equity fund inflows eased before Fed decision and big tech earnings
Update: 2025-10-31
Description
**Summary:**On October 31st, a significant slowdown in money flowing into U.S. equity funds was observed, with investors putting in about $1.8 billion, a stark contrast to the nearly $10 billion invested the previous week. The Federal Reserve's interest rate cut and uncertainty about future rates, along with mixed earnings reports from major tech companies, contributed to a cautious market mood. Large-cap funds saw inflows, while mid- and small-cap funds experienced outflows. The technology sector performed well, but sectors like financials and consumer discretionary lost money. In bonds, investors snapped up nearly $5 billion, marking a fourth straight week of gains, with a preference for short-to-intermediate investment-grade funds and general fixed income options. Money market funds also saw back-to-back weeks of new inflows, indicating a preference for safer bets amid economic uncertainty.
