Rising oil and gas prices rattled investors, raising concerns about the impact on the businesses they were invested in.

We are starting to see that impact, with Qantas Airways Ltd (ASX: QAN) doubling its jet fuel cost estimates for 2H FY26 today.

Fortescue Ltd (ASX: FMG) chair Dr Andrew Forrest has also revealed they paid up to double for emergency fuel supplies last month.

With all this in mind, it's interesting to look at how Aussie investors repositioned their ASX ETF portfolios as the conflict unfolded.

Aussies have $329 billion invested in ASX ETFs, and last month they ploughed an additional $5.6 billion into their favoured funds.

That makes March the third-highest month for net inflows ever. It seems the volatility caused by the war did not dampen their interest.

A new report from Betashares, which shows the top 10 ASX ETFs for inflows and outflows last month, reveals some interesting trends.

Let's take a look.

Top 10 ASX ETFs for inflows last month

Top 10 ETFs for outflows

How ASX ETFs investors repositioned last month

The VAS ETF is the most popular Australian shares ETF on the market, so it's no surprise to see it take out the top spot.

VGS is the most popular international shares ETF, so it's routine to see it close to the top as well.

The presence of IHVV in the top inflows list, and its unhedged counterpart IVV ETF in the top outflows, shows investors are mindful of currency changes over the past 12 months.

The Australian dollar has risen from just over 60 US cents 12 months ago to a three-year high of 70.8 US cents today.

As James Gruber, Equity Market Strategist at CommSec, points out:

When the Australian dollar strengthens, your international ETF returns shrink, and if the Australian dollar weakens, your returns improve.

Outflows from QAU ETF reflect profit-taking amid a 21% decline in the gold price over the first three weeks of March.

Sprott Managing Partner, Paul Wong, said investors need not be worried though.

Wong added:

Gold's March drop reflects a liquidity crunch, not a breakdown in its long-term role. 

As financial stress builds, gold is likely to reassert itself as a key monetary anchor.

Another interesting trend is the inflows into non-US international ETFs, reflecting the poorer performance of US markets this year.

In the year to date, the S&P 500 Index (SP: .INX) has lifted just 0.6% compared to a 3% bump for the ASX 200.

How is ASX IOZ performing?

The ASX IOZ aims to mirror the performance of the S&P/ASX 200 Accumulation Index, before fees and expenses.

The Accumulation Index is different to the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) because it assumes the reinvestment of dividends.

Therefore, the index reflects total returns over a given period, whereas the benchmark ASX 200 Index only reflects capital gains.

This ETF provides an easy way to invest in the top 200 companies by market capitalisation on the ASX.

It includes exposure to the biggest ASX 200 banks and mining shares, which have traditionally paid some of the largest dividend yields.

They include the market's largest company, Commonwealth Bank of Australia (ASX: CBA), as well as BHP Group Ltd (ASX: BHP) shares.

Over the 12 months to 31 March, ASX IOZ returned 11.71% to investors.

The ETF's three-year average return is 9.47%. The five-year average return is 8.56%.

The management fee is 0.05%.

Those ETFs include iShares Core S&P/ASX 200 ETF (ASX: IOZ) and iShares S&P/ASX Small Ordinaries ETF (ASX: ISO).

IOZ ETF delivered a solid 10.36% return for 2025 in line with the strength of the benchmark S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) last year.

The ISO ETF outperformed, producing a 24.54% total return as ASX small-cap shares benefitted from three interest rate cuts.

Small-caps have market valuations of between a few hundred million dollars and $2 billion, and carry more debt to fund their growth.

Perpetual portfolio manager Alex Patten said 2025 represented the first time that small-caps had outperformed "in a number of years".

Patten said:

… now that rates are starting to come down, we're seeing more interest in small and micro caps and bit more liquidity in the market.
