Lipper reporting $46b equity MF + ETF outflow in the past week, which is huge, but at least half of this is seasonal end of year stuff. Last 6 yrs:
2013: -$13b
2014: -$18b
2015: -$13b
2016: -$21b
2017: -$22b
2018: -$46b— Urban Carmel (@ukarlewitz) December 14, 2018
The largest equity fund outflow of the year almost always occurs in mid-December. Even so, this week's outflow of 0.44% of total equity fund assets is the largest in 15 years.
The previous record was 0.39% in mid-August 2011.
