1 ? Morningstar Direct SM U.S. Asset Flows Update Morningstar Manager Research 16 June 2016 Data through May 31, 2016 U.S. Mutual Funds and Exchange- Traded Products Alina Lamy Senior Analyst Markets Research Taxable- and Municipal-Bond Funds Continued to Attract the Highest Flows in May After outflows for most of last year, the tide turned for taxable-bond funds; they once again became popular with investors in February 2016, after the January sell-off in the stock market. The taxable-bond Morningstar category group received the highest inflow of all category groups in May: $15.4 billion. Municipal-bond funds took second place, with an $8.2 billion inflow. The taxable-bond category saw its inflow almost evenly distributed between active and passive funds. For muni-bond funds, active funds received the bulk of the inflows, which makes sense given the scarcity of passive muni-bond fund options out there. U.S. equity remained stuck in its pattern of passive inflows and active outflows. Worries over weakness in the most recent employment report were offset by hopes that the same weakness might lead the Federal Reserve to postpone raising interest rates. (This will be discussed at the next meeting on June ) International equity sustained outflows across the board, active and passive, prompted by concerns over potential disruption in Europe if Britain decides to leave the European Union at the upcoming June 23 referendum. May s $6.6 billion outflow was the worst since August 2011 for international equity.

The U.S. stock market has recovered after its January and February losses, and monthly returns since then have been positive. Now, however, investors are worried over Britain s potential exit from the European Union (commonly known as Brexit), and these worries are reflected in the flows. (I cover Brexit and its potential implications in more detail in my video here.) Exhibit 1.

3 Page 3 of 12 Exhibit 2 takes a closer look at fixed-income flows, illustrating how flows into taxable-bond funds have been positive since February but decreasing since March. Muni-bond flows have been increasing, slowly but steadily, for the past 12 months. With the interest-rate uncertainty nowhere near to being resolved and no stellar news on the equity front (domestic or international), investors are turning to muni bonds for their relative safety and tax benefits.

4 Page 4 of 12 Gold Sees Another Surge in Flows in May Flows into commodities spiked again in May, after being on the decline since February. The majority of these inflows, $2.5 billion, went into passive funds, especially precious-metals funds. May s inflow was nowhere near February s in magnitude; however, gold prices increased by 14% so far this year, so it could be a case of chasing returns. Furthermore, market disruption and volatility caused by Brexit (if it happens) could spur a flight to safety that would push gold prices even higher. Intermediate-Bond and Foreign Large-Blend Are the Top-Flowing Categories Once again, no surprise: Intermediate-term bond was the category with the highest flows in May. Intermediate bonds are a reasonable middle-of-the-road choice for most investors, because short-term bonds don t yield enough and long-term ones have higher interest-rate risk. The same reasoning applies to muni bonds (the muni national intermediate category had the third-largest flows), plus the tax benefits, of course. Top- and Bottom-Flowing Morningstar Categories Active Passive Estimated Net Flows* May Assets May Assets 1 Year 1 Year $Mil 2016 $Bil 2016 $Bil Leading Intermediate-Term Bond 7,077 20, ,319 41, Foreign Large Blend (56) 10, , , Muni National Intermediate 2,988 20, , Large Value 42 (29,825) 800 2,542 19, Commodities Precious Metals ,330 8, Lagging Large Growth (9,235) (44,044) 1,166 (372) 6, High Yield Bond (391) (12,535) 250 (2,795) 2, World Allocation (3,121) (29,763) 305 (0) (76) 0 Europe Stock (205) 1, (2,643) Mid-Cap Growth (2,094) (15,461) 238 (277) *Excludes money market.
5 Page 5 of 12 What is surprising is that foreign large-blend appeared on the list with highest inflows despite the fact that the overall category group, international equity, sustained outflows. Even more of a contradiction: Europe stock was among the categories with the largest outflows and foreign large-blend was among the categories with the largest inflows, but foreign large-blend is concentrated mostly in Europe. So, apparently, investors took money out of a category concentrated in European equity and poured money into another category concentrated in European equity. Within the Europe stock category, the two funds with the highest outflows were ishares MSCI Eurozone EZU and WisdomTree Europe Hedged Equity Fund HEDJ. Since the dollar has stayed relatively flat against the euro this year, it looks like investors are deciding that hedging is no longer worth it. This may all change going forward, however, if the pound and the euro depreciate in Brexit s aftermath, diminishing the returns of European holdings for U.S. investors. On the foreign large-blend side, inflows were led by Vanguard Total International Stock Index Fund VGTSX, Vanguard Developed Markets Index Fund VTMGX, and ishares Edge MSCI EAFE Minimum Volatility EFAV. We have seen this happen in the past, since Vanguard decided to increase allocations to international stocks within its fund-of-funds lineup. The majority of flows into the top two funds in the foreign large-blend category most likely originated from other Vanguard funds, principally their target-date open-end funds, as well as target-risk and targetdate offerings from 529 plans. These funds of funds are privileged in the sense that they tend to enjoy regular flows in the form of monthly investor contributions as opposed to lump sums, and then they turn around and invest these flows into their constituent individual funds. Last month, we discussed how ishares Edge MSCI USA Minimum Volatility USMV pulled the large-blend category up to second place in the top-flowing five. The exact same thing is happening this month with ishares Edge MSCI EAFE Minimum Volatility EFAV and the foreign large-blend category. These minimum-volatility exchange-traded funds seek to track the investment results of an index composed of U.S. or international equities that, in aggregate, have lower volatility characteristics relative to their broader equity market. Investors have been turning to these vehicles lately because they are still interested in U.S. and international equity s potential returns but unwilling to shoulder the increased risk and volatility these markets have experienced recently. USMV returned 6.8% this year through the end of May, a more attractive prospect than SPDR S&P 500 ETF s SPY 3.5% return during the same time period. Both ETFs have reasonable expense ratios of 0.15% and 0.20%, respectively.

High-yield bond flows have been volatile lately, turning negative again in May after three months of inflows, including a $10.8 billion peak in March.

Outflows larger than $1 billion came out of these four ETFs: ishares MSCI Emerging Markets EEM, ishares iboxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond HYG, ishares MSCI Eurozone EZU, and ishares MSCI Japan EWJ.

On the passive side, DFA and Fidelity enjoyed healthy flows, while State Street took a hit. For the year to date, American Funds and T. Rowe Price are the only active companies with positive flows. Vanguard is not displayed in Exhibit 6 because it would dwarf all the other data points and decrease the chart s legibility (Vanguard s year-to-date flow is $114.7 billion). Exhibit 6.

Despite sizable outflows from the allocation category group, American Funds American Balanced ABALX appeared once again in the top five in May because of its consistent performance (third percentile ranking in its category in the past year). Two nonregulars on the top five list this month are AQR Managed Futures Strategy AQMIX and Bridge Builder Core Plus Bond BBCPX. AQR focuses on quantitative strategies and is known mainly for its alternative fund lineup, which managed to attract consistent flows during the past year. The Bridge Builder series is a group of funds launched by Edward Jones in an effort to move from using outside funds to offering subadvisor versions of them designed specifically for clients invested in the firm's fee-based Advisory Solutions program. This new strategy is aimed at reducing the overall costs for investors, as well as addressing challenges related to rebalancing accounts or removing assets from the funds. These funds are very recent and do not have a long-term performance record. Three Vanguard funds and two ETFs (one SPDR, one ishares) held the top five on the passive side. SPDR Gold Shares GLD was the main beneficiary of the large flows observed at the commodities precious metals category level.

11 Page 11 of 12 Among active funds, Templeton Global Bond TPINX and PIMCO Total Return PTTRX suffered the largest outflows in May. IShares once again monopolized the bottom-flowing list on the passive side with four ETFs this month (it had three on the list in April). Investors sold their positions in these internationally oriented ETFs (emerging markets, eurozone, and Japan) and started moving toward minimumvolatility international ETFs, as discussed above.
12 Page 12 of 12 Note: The figures in this report were compiled on June 10, 2016, and reflect only the funds that had reported net assets by that date. The figures in both the commentary and the extended tables are survivorship-bias-free. This report includes both mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, but not funds of funds unless specifically stated. Important methodology note: Morningstar computes flows using the approach that is standard in the industry: Estimated net flow is the change in assets not explained by the performance of the fund. Our method assumes that flows occur uniformly over the course of the month. Adjustments for mergers are performed automatically. When liquidated funds are included, the final assets of the fund are counted as outflows. Reinvested dividends are not counted as inflows. We use fund-level reinvestment rates to improve accuracy in this respect. We make ad hoc adjustments for unusual corporate actions such as reverse share splits, and we overwrite our estimates with actual flows if managers are willing to provide the data to us.
