  • US Equity Funds See Outflows Amid Geopolitical Concerns Over Greenland Tariffs
    January 23, 2026, 11:46 AM EST. U.S. equity funds faced net outflows of $5.26 billion in the week ending January 21, as investors reduced risk amid President Trump's tariff threats against European countries over Greenland. Large-, mid-, and small-cap funds saw significant withdrawals, reversing prior gains. Despite outflows, sector funds, especially financials, metals and mining, and healthcare, attracted $3.3 billion in inflows. Bond funds saw modest inflows at $5.9 billion, with short-to-intermediate investment-grade funds growing 44% from the previous week. Money market funds experienced a second consecutive week of outflows, totaling $34.93 billion. The pullback follows Trump's retreat from tariff threats and denial of forceful Greenland acquisition.
