Thursday, March 24, 2011 Heavy Inflows Pour into Japanese Equity ETFs It's going to take more than a seismic earthquake and a nuclear meltdown to dampen these investors. Japan-focused equity exchange-traded funds hauled in an estimated $1.2 billion in the week after disaster hit Japan on March 11, the heaviest weekly inflow on record, according to new data from TrimTabs. A week after the earthquake and tsunamis shook the country, Japan equity ETFs hauled in an estimated $700 million on March 16, the heaviest one-day inflow on record and twice as large as the previous one-day record in 2003. The New York Times also covered TrimTab's latest data. Printed from: MFWire.com/story.asp?s=36356 Copyright 2011, InvestmentWires, Inc. All Rights Reserved |
