Investors Flock to Parking Type and Gold ETFs Amid Market Volatility

In recent financial markets, there has been a surge in investment in both parking-type and gold ETFs, largely due to global market instability. Samsung Asset Management's 'KODEX Money Market Active' ETF saw an inflow of KRW 954 billion in January alone, while KB Asset Management's 'RISE Money Market Active' ETF attracted KRW 503.4 billion in the same period. These ETFs appeal to investors by investing in short-term bonds and commercial papers, offering a potential for stable returns with low risk of loss.
Simultaneously, there is a noticeable increase in capital flowing into gold ETFs. The 'ACE KRX Gold Spot' ETF attracted KRW 39 billion in January alone. Gold is traditionally considered a safe haven, especially appealing during times of market uncertainty. This trend aligns with fears surrounding the policy unpredictability of the Trump administration and the volatility in global financial markets, attracting investors seeking to hedge against uncertainties.
