What stands out
Schwab client trading in September showed a clear tilt toward diversification: several ETFs drew unusually large inflows and five different ETFs made the top-10 buys rather than a single crowded winner. Joe Mazzola called out a pattern of profit-taking in big-name AI and chip stocks while clients rotated into SpaceX (SPCX), Nvidia (NVDA), Amazon (AMZN), and Broadcom (AVGO). The clip’s most interesting bit is that the flow data combines active profit-taking in momentum names with a broad ETF sweep, a mix that helps explain both the top buys and the top sells.
