Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) operate similarly to stocks, but investors trade “units” instead of traditional shares. These units can be bought and sold like stocks but can also be created or eliminated to match investor interest. Each week, we analyze the changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs undergoing significant inflows (new units created) or outflows (units destroyed). When new units are created, the underlying assets of the ETF must be purchased, while selling existing units entails liquidating those assets, making large shifts influential on the individual components held within the ETFs.
