Retail inflows to U.S. high-yield funds totaled $672 million during the
week ended Aug. 27, roughly on par with the $680 million inflow recorded
two weeks ago, and falling well under the $2.2 billion of inflows last
week. This week’s inflow helps to offset the $12.6 billion of outflows
for the four weeks ended Aug. 6.

The full-year reading remains in the red, at negative $2.3 billion, with 27% of the withdrawals tied to ETFs. One year ago at this time outflows totaled $6.5 billion, with 25% linked to the ETF segment.
