ETFs function akin to stocks, but instead of “shares,” investors deal in “units.” These “units” are tradable commodities like stocks but possess the unique characteristic of being created or destroyed in response to investor demand. We diligently monitor the weekly fluctuations in shares outstanding data to trace ETFs witnessing significant inflows or outflows. Noteworthy inflows indicate the creation of new units, necessitating the acquisition of the ETF’s underlying holdings, while noteworthy outflows denote the destruction of units, involving the sell-off of underlying holdings, thereby potentially influencing the individual components held within ETFs.
