U.S.-based taxable bond funds drew $9 billion, the fourth straight weekly inflow, while $5.9 billion flowed into money market funds, Lipper data showed on Thursday.
Other significant allocation milestones included the largest weekly inflow into financial/banking sector funds since 2008. The $3.6 billion that moved into financials was the 11th straight inflow and the third largest in Lipper’s records dating to 1992, coming as the S&P 500 financials index reached record highs.
Energy sector funds drew $2.8 billion, which was the third largest inflow on record, as the S&P energy sector index reached its highest level since June.
International equity funds attracted $3.9 billion, the biggest weekly inflow since February 2013, according to Lipper.
