Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) operate similarly to stocks. However, when buying ETFs, investors acquire ”units” instead of ”shares”. These ”units” can be traded like stocks but can also be created or destroyed based on investor demand. Each week, we monitor changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs experiencing significant inflows (indicating many new units are created) or outflows (referring to the destruction of units). The creation of new units necessitates the purchase of underlying holdings, while the destruction requires selling these holdings. Thus, large flows can also affect the individual components held within the ETFs.
