BofA, citing EPFR Global, says U.S. equity funds saw $8.5bln of net outflows in the week to June 24, the first weekly withdrawal in three months. Technology funds led the move with a record $9.3bln outflow; the prior week tech funds had posted a record $19.2bln inflow, BofA’s Michael Hartnett team noted.

Overall equity funds recorded $5.0bln of redemptions, money-market funds had $25.5bln of outflows, European funds posted an 11th consecutive week of withdrawals, and investors rotated into fixed-income funds, which attracted $16.6bln.
