Market Focus06-16 00:19

On June 16, iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (IEMG) rose 3.23% in regular trading, trading at $84.54/share, with turnover of $353 million.

On the news front, rising US CPI expectations — potentially reaching 4.3%, the highest since 2023 — have intensified concerns about the Federal Reserve maintaining elevated rates or even hiking, pressuring US equities and prompting capital reallocation toward emerging markets. China stock ETFs have led net inflows among emerging market funds, reflecting renewed investor confidence in developing economies.

Meanwhile, the pace of outflows from US-listed emerging market ETFs has significantly decelerated, with net outflows narrowing to $460.4 million in the week ending June 5, down sharply from $1.45 billion the prior week. Year-to-date inflows remain robust at $40.8 billion, suggesting the recent withdrawal trend may be reversing as investors seek alternatives amid US macro uncertainty.

The fund generally invests at least 80% of its assets in the component securities of the underlying index, which is designed to measure large-, mid- and small-cap equity market performance in the global emerging markets.
