Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) operate similarly to stocks, but instead of purchasing “shares,” investors buy and sell “units.” These units can be traded like stocks, while also being created or destroyed based on market demand. Each week, we monitor weekly changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs with notable inflows or outflows. The creation of new units requires purchasing the ETF’s underlying assets, while selling existing units implies selling those holdings. Therefore, significant inflows or outflows can directly affect the individual components within ETFs.
