Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) function similarly to stocks, though investors buy and sell “units” rather than shares. These units are traded like shares but can also be created or destroyed to meet investor demand. Each week, we monitor changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs with significant inflows or outflows. The creation of new units entails purchasing the underlying assets of the ETF, while the destruction of units involves selling off holdings. Therefore, large flows can significantly impact the individual components held within ETFs.
