Notes: Weekly fund flows are estimates that represent industry totals, based on reporting covering more than 98 percent of mutual fund and ETF assets. Actual mutual fund net new cash flows and ETF net issuance are collected and reported separately on a monthly basis; therefore, there are differences between these weekly estimates and the monthly flows. Data for previous weeks reflect revisions because of data adjustments, reclassifications, and changes in the number of funds reporting. Historical flow data are available on the ICI website.
