Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) function like stocks. When investing in ETFs, you buy and sell “units” rather than “shares.” These units can be traded like stocks but can also be created or removed based on investor demand. Weekly tracking of changes in shares outstanding helps identify funds with notable inflows (new units created) or outflows (old units removed). The creation of new units necessitates purchasing the ETF’s underlying holdings, while the reduction of units requires selling them. As a result, significant flows can influence the performance of the individual components within the ETFs.
