Wednesday, November 26, 2025 Flows Drop By $11.5B In 2 Weeks Industry inflows fell for a second week running, thanks to falling exchange-traded fund inflows and despite falling mutual fund outflows, according to the latest data from the folks at a mutual fund industry trade group. Today, the Investment Company Institute (ICI) team reports that an estimated $14.639 billion net flowed into ETFs and long-term, open-end mutual funds in the week ended November 19, 2025. (Money-market funds and funds-of-funds, as well as non-'40-Act asset management products like CITs and separate accounts, are not included.) That's a $4.554 billion net flows drop week-over-week from the week ended on November 12* (and an $11.478-billion drop from the week ended November 5), but it still extends the industry's inflows streak to 15 weeks and counting. Traditional, long-term, open-end mutual funds suffered an estimated $19.612 billion in net outflows for the week ended November 19, according to the ICI folks, down by $2.666 billion W/W. Meanwhile, ETFs brought in an estimated $34.251 billion in net inflows last week, down by $7.22 billion W/W. Fixed income led industry inflows yet again last week. Per ICI's data, an estimated $12.179 billion net flowed into bond funds and ETFs in the week ended November 19 (down by $4.205 billion W/W). $11.325 billion of that (down by $3.366 billion W/W) flowed into taxable bond funds and ETFs, while $854 million (down by $840 million W/W) flowed into municipal bond funds and muni ETFs. Equity funds and ETFs brought in an estimated $5.428 billion in net inflows last week (up by $2.169 billion W/W). Domestic equity funds and ETFs returned to positive territory, netting $1.914 billion in net inflows (a $2.726-billion net flows jump W/W), while world equity funds and ETFs brought in $3.514 billion in net inflows (down by $557 million W/W). On the flip side, commodity funds (well, ETFs) suffered an estimated $55 million in net outflows for the week ended November 19. That's a $1.269-billion net flows drop W/W. Hybrid funds and ETFs suffered an estimated $2.914 billion in net outflows last week. That's up by $1.25 billion W/W. *Editor's Note: The ICI folks note that they also regularly revise the past weeks' flows data, "because of adjustments, reclassifications, and changes in the number of funds reporting." Thus, the week-to-week flows changes may not quite line up perfectly with the numbers in MFWire's coverage of prior weeks' flows.
