Traditional index trackers shunned in January US ETF flows
February 11, 2025-Overall, US-listed ETFs saw net inflows of $92bn in January, according to SSGA data, a record for January, traditionally the second-quietest month, livelier only than August.
According to Morningstar, US-listed active ETFs pulled in a record $43bn in January, ahead of the previous record of $34bn, set as recently as November, following 579 active ETF launches on Wall Street in 2024.
The flows may be a sign that the traditional low-cost passive bedrock of the ETF world is being challenged by the combined forces of actively managed ETFs, derivatives-heavy products that seek to limit risk, factor-based "smart beta" ETFs and sector funds.
