Russia's Putin On Talks With U.S., Says Situation Is Starting To Move; Let's See What Comes Of It; Putin On Trump's Request To Spare Lives Of Ukrainian Troops, Says 'In Case They Surrender We Guarantee We Will Save Their Lives, Ukrainian Authorities Need To Give Order To Surrender'

U.S. Secretary Of State Rubio Says Reason To Be Cautiously Optimistic On Ukraine-Russia Situation; U.S. Recognizes That Ukraine Ceasefire Issue Continues Is Still A 'Difficult And Complex' Situation; U.S. Feels 'Good' About The G7 Joint Statement

ETFs that follow U.S. and European equities have witnessed a change in investor sentiment over the past year. While historically, the U.S. has dominated <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">ETF market </a>performance and inflows, European equities have beaten American equities since the beginning of 2025. This has raised discussion on whether European ETFs are a better investment option for investors in the current scenario.
According to a report by the Financial Times, European stocks have&nbsp;outperformed&nbsp;U.S. stocks by more than 10% since January, despite Trump's &#8220;America First&#8221; policies. A number of factors have been responsible for this outperformance.
European&nbsp;countries,&nbsp;led&nbsp;by&nbsp;Germany, have&nbsp;strengthened&nbsp;their defense&nbsp;expenditures due to geopolitical tensions. Germany&#8217;s recent move to relax fiscal restraint is its most important policy shift to date since reunification. China&#8217;s rebound on the economic front has also supported European exports.

European Investors Pulling Out Of U.S. ETFs
A&nbsp;prevailing&nbsp;trend&nbsp;recently is that European investors are stepping back from U.S. equity ETFs. Europe-domiciled ETFs that have invested in U.S. equities&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ft.com/content/d5bd3163-fee5-4924-87f1-902169ffde90" target="_blank" rel="noopener">saw&nbsp;</a>outflows of $510 million in February, compared to November 2023,&nbsp;when these funds&nbsp;saw&nbsp;record&nbsp;inflows of $22.8 billion,&nbsp;accounting&nbsp;for&nbsp;nearly&nbsp;80% of&nbsp;total&nbsp;European ETF&nbsp;purchases.
On the other hand, U.S. investors have&nbsp;remained&nbsp;loyal&nbsp;to&nbsp;their&nbsp;home&nbsp;market. U.S. equity ETFs&nbsp;received&nbsp;$48.1 billion in February,&nbsp;accounting&nbsp;for&nbsp;nearly&nbsp;half of&nbsp;total&nbsp;ETF inflows in the&nbsp;country,&nbsp;according&nbsp;to&nbsp;etf.com.
These&nbsp;numbers&nbsp;underscore&nbsp;the&nbsp;divergence&nbsp;of&nbsp;investor sentiment between&nbsp;the U.S.&nbsp;and&nbsp;Europe.
What's Behind the Shift?
Benoit Sorel, the global head of ETF, indexing, and smart beta at Amundi, noted several reasons behind&nbsp;European investors&#8217; dramatic withdrawal from&nbsp;U.S. equities.&nbsp;In&nbsp;an&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ft.com/content/d5bd3163-fee5-4924-87f1-902169ffde90">interview&nbsp;</a>with&nbsp;the Financial Times, he&nbsp;referred&nbsp;to &#8220;geopolitical developments with progress towards the resolution of the conflict in Ukraine for Europe and inflationary measures in the U.S.&#8221;
The&nbsp;other factors contributing to this are&nbsp;the Trump administration&#8217;s&nbsp;tariffs&nbsp;and threats of tariffs,&nbsp;the&nbsp;diverging monetary policies&nbsp;of&nbsp;the U.S. and Europe, and&nbsp;worries&nbsp;regarding&nbsp;the growth and valuations of&nbsp;U.S. mega-cap tech stocks,&nbsp;as&nbsp;per&nbsp;Sorel.

ETF Market Growth: US Vs Europe
Notwithstanding the contrasts, both the U.S. and European ETF markets have been rising robustly. <a href="https://www.ey.com/en_gl/insights/financial-services/emeia/how-etf-trends-are-shaping-market-growth-and-innovation-for-2025">According </a>to EY, aggregate ETF AUM in Europe was nearly $2.3 trillion by the end of 2024, due to the rapid expansion of online savings retail accounts.
Another important aspect to highlight is that European ETFs have grown faster than their U.S. counterparts mainly because they have historically had a lower percentage of registered funds, EY said.
Looking ahead, EY&nbsp;forecasts&nbsp;European ETFs to&nbsp;record&nbsp;double-digit growth, with retail adoption&nbsp;propelling&nbsp;regional ETF assets to $4.5 trillion by 2030.
Tariffs And Market Volatility
The &#8220;United States versus the rest of the world&#8221; trade battle has made ETF investment trends more complex, according to etf.com. The policies have contributed to volatility in American markets, which are already prone to being volatile under conditions of uncertainty. On the other hand, European ETF investors appear to be gaining from this volatility, raising an eyebrow over the long-sustained notion of American market superiority.
Some U.S. and Europe ETFs to consider
Now that we are familiar with the latest trends, expectations and outlook for both markets, here are some ETFs to consider:
<ul>
<li>U.S. ETFs:
<ul>
<li>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) – Tracks the S&amp;P 500, which represents 500 of the largest publicly traded companies in the U.S. The fund charges an expense ratio of 0.095%, and its holdings include major blue-chip stocks across various sectors such as technology, healthcare, and financials. Apple, Microsoft and Nvidia are the top three holdings currently.</li>
<li>Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) – Tracks the Nasdaq-100, which includes 100 of the largest non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market. Managed by Invesco, QQQ is heavily weighted toward the technology sector, with top holdings often including giants like Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, and Nvidia. The fund boasts high liquidity, tight bid-ask spreads, and a relatively low expense ratio of 0.20%.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>European ETFs:
<ul>
<li>iShares MSCI Europe ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IEV#NYSE">IEV</a>) – Tracks broad large- and mid-cap companies across developed European markets. IEV aims to replicate the MSCI Europe Index, which includes stocks from countries such as the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Switzerland, and the Netherlands. Companies like Nestlé, Roche, ASML, and LVMH are among the ETF&#8217;s holdings. With an expense ratio of 0.59%, the ETF is a convenient and cost-effective option for those looking to diversify their portfolios with European equities while cutting single-country risk.</li>
<li>Vanguard FTSE Europe ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VGK#NYSE">VGK</a>) – Covers large-, mid-, and small-cap stocks across developed European markets. It tracks the FTSE Developed Europe All Cap Index, covering companies from major economies such as the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Switzerland, and the Netherlands. The fund is known for its low expense ratio of 0.07%, making it one of the most cost-effective ways to invest in European equities.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
A Temporary Rotation or a Structural Shift?
ETF investors are&nbsp;weighing&nbsp;their&nbsp;choices,&nbsp;closely watching&nbsp;larger&nbsp;trends in monetary policy, trade relations, and market valuations. For&nbsp;the moment, the&nbsp;traditional&nbsp;dominance of American markets has been&nbsp;temporarily&nbsp;reversed, but it&nbsp;will be interesting to see how&nbsp;long&nbsp;this trend&nbsp;will last.

US Vs. Europe ETFs: Is The Tide Turning?

On Thursday, March 13, U.S. markets ended notably lower, with the S&amp;P 500 entering <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44317410/sp-500-enters-technical-correction-as-trade-war-fears-rattle-markets" rel="noreferrer noopener">correction</a> territory as escalating U.S. tariffs overshadowed encouraging inflation data.
Despite cooler-than-expected PPI and CPI readings and steady jobless claims suggesting inflation is easing, and the labor market remains strong, investor sentiment deteriorated. A broad selloff, led by losses in tech megacaps like the &#8220;Magnificent 7,&#8221; dragged major indexes down. Trade tensions flared as the EU retaliated against U.S. metal tariffs.
In economic data, U.S. producer prices were flat in February, missing expectations of a 0.3% rise after a revised 0.6% gain in January. Jobless claims fell by 2,000 to 220,000, below the forecast of 225,000.

'President Trump Floats 200% Tariff On EU Wines' -Bloomberg News

On Wednesday, March 12, U.S. markets ended mixed as softer-than-expected inflation data lifted hopes for Fed rate cuts, partially offsetting investor concerns over escalating trade tensions. The S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq closed higher, driven by tech stocks while growing tariff disputes under Trump continued to stoke recession fears and market volatility.
In economic data, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) fell to 2.8% year-over-year in February, down from 3%, beating expectations for a more modest decline to 2.9%. Core inflation also cooled more than anticipated, slipping from 3.3% to 3.1%.
Most S&amp;P 500 sectors ended higher, led by gains in consumer discretionary, tech, and communication services. Consumer staples and health care lagged, closing lower.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.20% to close at 41,350.93, the S&amp;P 500 rose 0.49% to 5,599.30, and the Nasdaq Composite gained 1.22% to 17,648.45.

'Putin Eyes Way To Agree To Truce Terms With His Own Conditions' - Bloomberg News

On Tuesday, March 11, U.S. markets closed lower, extending steep losses amid escalating tariff threats from President Trump, which fueled concerns over a global economic slowdown.
The S&amp;P 500 briefly entered correction territory, down 10% from recent highs. Volatility was driven by mixed trade signals and geopolitical developments, including a potential Ukraine-Russia ceasefire and suspended Canadian energy surcharges.
In economic data, U.S. job openings unexpectedly rose by 232,000 to 7.74 million in January, up from a revised 7.51 million in December and surpassing the forecast of 7.63 million—signaling continued labor market strength amid broader economic uncertainty.
All 11 major S&amp;P sectors ended in the red, though technology and consumer discretionary—this year&#8217;s weakest performers—recorded the most modest losses.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.14% to close at 41,433.48, the S&amp;P 500 declined 0.76% to 5,572.07, while the Nasdaq Composite slipped 0.18% to 17,436.10.
