ETF flows have turned weak, $IG's largest LQD faced -$1.5b in outflows over rolling week while largest HY (HYG) not far behind on -$700m.

Credit spreads have waved past equity weakness this week (€IG basket is -1% to yest.) to continue a slow move tighter - one that has extended to local HY spreads. Both regions look unch today.
