  • The breadth of markets seeing net positive inflows from funds have reached the highest level since 2021.
  • In its fund flow insights update, Citi said that in the week of 18th February, bond funds saw USD 26.4bln of inflows, while equity funds saw USD 35.2bln of inflows.
  • Inflows to DM funds remain steady, with USD 15.3bln and USD 9.6bln going into Global and US funds, respectively.
  • Citi notes that European funds also had USD 3.0bln of inflows. 
Context

Given these inflows, we could see upward pressure on the USD as investors seek safe-haven assets, while also reflecting positively on metals like gold in the current market environment.
