It was another big month for ETFs in February. Equity ETFs picked up some $110 billion in net inflows, according to Factset data. ETFs have continued their ascent in the investment landscape once more, following a strong 2025, so what can be made of that data? ETF Database data shows some interesting takeaways from the top five funds for inflows in February.
Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO)
Leading the way, the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO ) pulled in $17 billion for the month. The strategy, often placed in the same tier as the State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY ) which itself saw outflows, holds a staggering $875 billion in AUM. VOO offers exposures to the S&P 500 for just three basis points (bps).
Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP)
The Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP ) saw some $5.6 billion in net inflows. Charging 20 bps, the strategy tracks the S&P 500 Equal Weighted index, offering an alternative to market cap-weighted approaches to the S&P 500 like that of VOO.
Vanguard Total International Stock ETF (VXUS)
The Vanguard Total International Stock (VXUS ) brought in $4.3 billion for February. It charges just five bps to offer exposure to its FTSE Global All Cap x US index. The strategy’s flows may have benefitted from significant appeal among investors for international equities.
Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI)
The Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI ) charges just three bps for its exposure to the U.S. equity market writ large. VTI tracks the CRSP US Total Market Index, and brought in just under $4 billion for February, at $3.9 billion, per Factset.
iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF (IGV)
The iShares Expanded Tech Software Sector ETF (IGV ) rounded out the top five equity ETFs by flows for February. The tech ETF charges 39 bps to track its S&P North American Technology-Software Index, targeting medium cap software firms. It added $3.7 billion in February.
Together, those five equity ETFs reflect some familiar asset manager names, but also a diverse group of equity ETFs overall. For those investors wanting options for different ways to approach domestic, international, and tech stocks, they could be worth examining further.
