After receiving more capital inflows in January than all of 2022, the iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (IEMG) is solidifying its position on Wall Street with $72.5 billion in managed assets and $4.1 billion in cash inflows year-to-date.
Exchange-traded funds operate much like mutual funds. They are constructed to track a certain financial asset. In this case IEMG seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of large-, mid- and small-capitalization emerging market equities.
IEMG is up roughly 9.5% year-to-date, outperforming the Nasdaq, S&P 500, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
