Call it habit. Call it decades of conventional wisdom pushed by financial advisors and DIY investors.

JPMorgan Income ETF (NYSEARCA:JPIE) has delivered over 50 consecutive monthly distributions since its October 2021 inception, and yet most investors who hold it have never seen the share price move more than a few dollars.

The JPMorgan Income ETF holds a diversified bond portfolio, focusing on high-quality, short-term agency MBS. It's an incredibly well-rounded fund, with an above-average 5.7% yield, below-average risk and volatility, and strong risk-adjusted returns. We see lots of benefits, with no significant downsides.

Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, joined Nate Geraci on this week's ETF Prime to discuss five emerging flow trends as the ETF industry tracks toward $1.8 trillion in inflows for 2026. The industry pulled in roughly $150 billion in January, building on the record $1.5 trillion gathered in 2025.

JPMorgan Income ETF has doubled AUM post-April 2025, now exceeding $7 billion, reflecting strong investor demand.

Another blockbuster year for bond ETFs is in the books. After two straight years of record net inflows, taxable fixed income ETF assets have nearly doubled since 2020 – crossing the $2 trillion mark.

After a record $1.5 trillion year for the ETF industry in 2025, demand has not slowed down in January. Indeed, as of January 21, ETFs had already gathered $103 billion of new money.

With 2025 in the books, it will be a difficult year to top for fixed income exchange-traded funds (ETFs), but Morningstar is predicting more excitement to come. That should keep fixed income investors fixated on what new developments the space brings this year.

It should go without saying that investors who have been chasing income have had something of an unusual advantage over the last two years.

The JPMorgan Income ETF offers a balanced, income-focused approach amid current market euphoria and AI-driven volatility. JPIE's active management and liquidity allow flexible portfolio adjustments, providing stability against aggressive, momentum-driven investments. In a volatile market like the one we are in today, peace of mind does not come easy! JPIE stands like a rock while the storm surges around it.
