Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) function similarly to stocks, but instead of trading “shares,” investors buy and sell “units.” These units can be traded just like stocks, but they can also be created or destroyed based on investor demand. Each week, we track changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs with important inflows (new units created) or outflows (older units destroyed). The creation of new units requires purchasing the ETF’s underlying holdings, while unit destruction leads to the selling of those holdings. Thus, significant flows can influence the individual components within the ETFs.
