Global assets in exchange-traded funds (ETFs) surged to a record $15 trillion in 2024, marking a 32% increase from the previous year. This growth is attributed to significant market performance, with 60% of the increase driven by market gains and 40% from investor inflows. In 2024 alone, investors contributed $1.7 trillion to ETFs, representing the first time the industry has seen over $1 trillion in inflows in a single year. The 50-day average of daily inflows into equity ETFs reached a record $4.7 billion on December 3. Notably, sectors such as Small Cap and Broad Debt are experiencing the largest inflows, while Theme and Health Care sectors are seeing outflows. The bullish sentiment is further highlighted by a notable increase in trading activity in leveraged ETFs, reflecting a shift in investor confidence towards US-focused ETFs.
