EEM, UST: Big ETF Outflows

The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF experienced the largest weekly unit outflow among ETFs tracked by ETF Channel: 24,750,000 units destroyed, a 5.3% week‑over‑week decline. The report flags this as the biggest outflow in the covered universe. Such redemptions suggest modest investor repositioning away from EM exposure but are routine and unlikely to move broad markets.
