This has led to large fund redemptions, resulting in many fixed income funds rushing to sell their most liquid assets, which are typically short-duration and high-quality bonds. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"xmsonormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-IE\">Sellers by far outweigh buyers, not least because banks\u2014which traditionally provided liquidity\u2014have come under pressure themselves as their credit lines are drawn and it becomes harder for them to operate as they have done in the past. With banks less able to act as market-makers, liquidity is in short supply. We recommend to avoid trading around market open and make use of limit order.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Source: ETFWorld.ch<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vanguard: \u201eOverall across markets, we have seen muted flows across European ETFs, with investors rotating out of fixed income exposures into commodities.
