<ul> 
 <li style="font-weight: 400">Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) inflows have surged to a two-week high as the underlying asset pumped 7% on key US inflation data.&nbsp;</li> 
</ul> 
Inflows for spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States soared to $303 million on May 15 amid a big jump in BTC prices. 
It is the highest inflow since May 3 as institutional inventors pivoted back to bullish in the wake of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data on May 15 which met expectations. 
Fidelity led the pack with its FBTC fund seeing $131 million in inflows for the day, its highest inflow since March 26. Bitwise’s BITB fund also had a solid day with an inflow of $86 million, a figure not beaten since March 4. 
BlackRock’s IBIT fund saw its third consecutive trading day of zero flows, but experts have previously explained that this is perfectly normal for a fund of this nature.

Even Grayscale’s GBTC saw an inflow with $27 million returning to its flagship BTC fund following four months of outflows.

Additionally, the latest US Security and Exchange Commission filings show that one of the world’s largest hedge funds, Millennium Management, holds a whopping $2 billion spot Bitcoin ETF portfolio. 
This was commented on by prominent ETF analysts, with James Seyffart <a href="https://twitter.com/JSeyff/status/1790887457845825549">quipping</a>, “It’s only retail traders buying the Bitcoin ETFs.”

May 15 was the deadline for institutional investment firms to file their quarterly 13F report with the SEC for their positions held as of the end of Q1. 
Another major hedge fund, Paul Singer’s Elliott Capital, disclosed a stake of nearly $12 million in IBIT, and Apollo Management Holdings disclosed a stake of $53 million in ARK 21Shares’ ARKB.

Crypto markets reacted to the April CPI data in the US, which came in lower than expected at 0.3%. 
The report is a key indicator of inflationary trends, and it has increased the likelihood of the Federal Reserve reducing rates and injecting more liquidity into markets, which is good news for high-risk assets such as crypto.
