Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) function similarly to stocks; however, investors trade in “units” rather than “shares.” These units can be traded like stocks, but they can also be created or destroyed based on investor demand. Our weekly monitoring of changes in shares outstanding reveals trends in ETFs experiencing major inflows or outflows. The creation of new units necessitates purchasing the underlying assets of the ETF, while the destruction of units involves selling these assets. Thus, significant inflows or outflows can influence the prices of individual components within these ETFs.
