By Dave Nadig and Olivier Ludwig | July 28, 2010

Investors on Tuesday pulled $323.7 million from the Pimco Enhanced Short Maturity Strategy (NYSEArca: MINT), a money market fund proxy that has become popular this year, in a possible sign that some of the fear gripping markets since spring may be fading.

They also poured another $1.72 billion into equity ETFs on a day stocks were mixed, according to data compiled by IndexUniverse.com. The Dow Jones industrials average posted slim gains, while other indexes, including the Nasdaq, ended lower.

The large-cap SPDR S&P 500 ETF (NYSEArca: SPY) recorded $964.87 million in creations, followed by the small-cap iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSEArca: IWM), which had inflows of $532.9 million. The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund (NYSEArca: EEM) and the Vanguard MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (NYSEArca: VWO) were third and fourth on the creations list, with $296.7 million and $192.1 million.

In second place on IndexUniverse.com’s redemptions list was the PowerShares QQQ (NYSEArca: QQQQ) of Nasdaq’s 100-biggest companies. That was consistent with the Nasdaq index’s decline of 8.18, or 0.36 percent, to 2288.25. The “Qs” recorded outflows of $153.2 million, respectively.

Total assets in the more than 1,000 U.S. ETFs now listed in the U.S. rose to $835.28 billion, an increase of less than 1 percent over the prior day that reflected $2.01 billion in total creations plus market movements.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose on Tuesday 12.26, or 0.12 percent, to 10,537.69.
