TrimTabs: Stock Mutual Funds Saw $4B Inflows Thu To Wed NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Stock mutual funds saw inflows of $4 billion during the week ended Wednesday, according to TrimTabs.com Investment Research estimates. In the previous week, the same funds saw inflows of $3.6 billion. For the week ended Wednesday, domestic stock funds saw an inflow of $800 million, compared with $600 million the prior week. International stock funds saw inflows of $3.2 billion for the week, compared with inflows of $2.9 billion for the previous week. "These funds are attracting enormous inflows as most non-U.S. stock markets continue to outperform the major U.S. stock market averages," said Charles Biderman, chief executive of TrimTabs. Bond funds saw inflows of $600 million, compared with outflows of $300 million a week ago. Hybrid funds, which mix stocks and bonds, saw inflows of $600 million for the second consecutive week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.7% during the week ended Wednesday, the Nasdaq Composite Index fell 1.6% and the Standard & Poor's 500 Index fell 0.3%. TrimTabs, Santa Rosa, Calif., tracks daily flows of 90 fund families that have about 15% of all equity-fund assets. TrimTabs then regresses those numbers by sector to estimate total flows for all equity funds. -By Cynthia Koons, Dow Jones Newswires; 201-938-2007 (END) Dow Jones Newswires April 27, 2006 17:47 ET (21:47 GMT) Copyright (c) 2006 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.- - 05 47 PM EDT 04-27-06
