PowerShares ETF QQQ (QQQQ) is tracking the Nasdaq 100. The index of the largest non-financial stocks traded on Nasdaq Stock Market. Today we could see unusual volume. Traded volume reached 597 million shares which is 3.5 times average volume. Another the most liquid ETF underlying broad market index haven't even doubled average daily volume. SPDR S&P 500 (SPY) with 469 million shares.
This confirms trend from the beginning of the year. YTD net cash outlflow from QQQQ is only around 3%. SPY has faced significant money outflow around 13%. More or less the same negative trend can be seen with foreign stocks, iShares MSCI EAFE Index (EFA), 10% and emerging markets, iShares MSCI E.M.I.F. (EEM), 16%.
Another interesting trend is with two ETF underlying the same index S&P 500. SPDR S&P 500 (SPY) vs. iShares S&P 500 (IVV). From the beginning of the year iShares has gained market share with net cash inflow 10% against already mentioned 13% outflow from SPY.
Technology laden QQQQ seems to be safe peer in financial turmoils for ETF investors.
