TREE NEWS reports: Emerging-market ETFs rose 1.25% on Friday, September 11, leading US asset-class ETF gains, while the Dow ETF added 0.97% and the Nasdaq 100 ETF 0.87%. The US Brent crude oil fund fell 2.79% and the soybeans fund 2.27%. Year to date, the Brent oil fund is up 116.70% and the emerging-market ETF 24.64%.
Emerging-Market ETF Leads US Asset-Class Funds With 1.25% Gain; Brent Oil Fund Drops 2.79%
The standout here is the divergence between a single-session risk-on bid in emerging-market equities and the continued unwind in Brent crude, which remains the year's dominant performer despite Friday's drop. That gap suggests positioning is being trimmed in the year's biggest winner rather than a broader rotation out of risk. The open question is whether emerging-market strength persists once oil's year-to-date lead narrows further, since commodity-driven flows have been a key support for developing-market assets.
