Short US equity funds (BBUS, SNAS) outperformed last week as US markets underwent broad de-risking in preparation for Trump’s April 2nd “Liberation Day”.1 While no specifics have been revealed apart from a sweeping tariff on all US auto imports, Trump’s media comments suggest that incoming tariffs will be all encompassing – something economists fear may bring about global economic slowdown.
Uranium equities (ATOM, URNM) underperformed as utility companies further refrained from writing long-term contracts. Long-term contracts make up roughly 70% of uranium trading volume, however utility firms are holding back as tariffs against Canada and Russian sanctions have introduced massive uncertainty into the supply chain.
There were $656.5 million in reported inflows for the week and $337.8 million in outflows, marking a week of net inflows for the Australian ETF industry.
