LONDON, Nov 12 (Reuters) - Foreign investors pulled a record amount of money from U.S. equity funds tracking Saudi Arabia in October as the Middle East's worst violence in decades shook the region's business-friendly narrative. The iShares MSCI Saudi Arabia ETF saw record net outflows in October of more than $200 million, LSEG data shows, cutting 20% from what it held at the beginning of the month. "Capital flight can be quite indiscriminate," said Torbjorn Soltvedt, principal analyst for the Middle East and North Africa with Verisk Maplecroft. The iShares MSCI Qatar ETF (QAT.O) lost $7.7 million in funds in October, while the iShares MSCI UAE ETF (UAE.O) suffered outflows of $2.75 million. Nearly all the region's main economies are strong enough to weather some turmoil, investors say.

Oct 23 (Reuters) - Outflows from exchange-traded funds (ETFs) tracking Israeli stocks accelerated in the last two weeks, tracking a sharp slide in share prices as the conflict between Israel and Palestinian group Hamas widens to other fronts. The iShares MSCI Israel ETF posted net outflows of $2.5 million between Oct. 9 and Oct. 20, leaving it with assets of $111.62 million, according to Lipper data. "The market doesn't like uncertainties," said Sammy Suzuki, head of emerging market equities at AllianceBernstein. Israel ETFs were underperforming most of their peers prior to Hamas' attack, said Steven Schoenfeld, CEO of Market Vector Indexes, who created the index behind the $78.4 million BlueStar Israel Technology . ETFs tracking Israeli technology stocks such as the BlueStar Israel Technology ETF and the $75.4 million ARK Israel Innovative Technology ETF recorded net outflows of $1.9 million and $7.2 million, respectively, in the last two weeks.

New York CNN —Growing unrest in the Middle East has cast a shadow on global financial markets. Israeli stocks listed in New York and Tel Aviv have sunk to recent lows, underscoring the growing economic uncertainties in the war-torn region and leaving investors unsure of where markets go from here. Funds in the US hold more than $43 billion in Israeli stocks and bonds, according to a Bloomberg tracker. Big names, big exposure: As the war continues, businesses with headquarters, factories and inventory in Israel appear increasingly at risk to geopolitical turmoil. “If the war remains confined between Israel and Palestinians, it’s likely that the markets will forget about it after a few days,” he wrote.
