Analyzing the Weekly Flows
Total weekly net flow into the channel reached $1,333M, driven overwhelmingly by the Levered implementation group, which attracted $1,407M despite negative 30-day and 90-day trends. Options Overlay products added a further $104M, while Autocallable and Currency Hedged structures saw modest single-digit-million inflows. The Inverse group was the lone outflow category, shedding $182M over the five-day period even as it holds positive YTD and 1-year flows of $548M and $147M, respectively. This pattern suggests traders rotated toward bullish, single-name leveraged exposure during the week while trimming inverse hedges.
