- U.S. equity funds attracted roughly $25.0 billion as investors raised exposure to large-cap technology names ahead of the earnings season.
- Technology sector funds alone drew about $11.5 billion after analysts lifted near-term earnings forecasts tied to strong demand for AI products and services.
