ETFs, such as TIP, function similarly to stocks. However, instead of purchasing “shares,” investors buy and sell “units.” These units can fluctuate in number according to market demand. Each week, we track changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs with significant inflows (indicating new units) or outflows (indicating units being retired). The creation of new units requires buying the underlying holdings, while retiring units necessitates selling them. Therefore, substantial outflows can impact the individual assets within ETFs.
