Jan 30 (Reuters) - U.S. ⁠equity ⁠funds ‍experienced renewed inflows in the week to January 28, supported by ‍upbeat expectations ahead of mega-cap earnings ​despite jitters over President Donald Trump's latest ​tariff threats.

Equity sectoral funds ​in particular, had $6.07 billion weekly net investments, the largest ‌amount for a week since at least 2022.

Leading sectoral net investments, tech, ​financials, and metals and ⁠mining sectors attracted $1.72 billion, $1.44 billion and $1.39 billion, respectively.

Bond funds had ‌the recent run of net purchases extended into a fourth straight week as these ‌funds drew $13.16 billion in weekly net investments.

Investors bought ‌U.S. short-to-intermediate investment-grade funds, general domestic taxable fixed income funds and municipal debt funds the ‍most, pouring in $5.31 billion, $3.28 billion and $2.06 billion, respectively into these ⁠funds.

Meanwhile, money market funds ended a two-week selling streak by drawing in a net inflow of $9.64 billion.
