Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) operate like stocks. However, instead of trading “shares,” investors buy and sell “units.” These “units” can be exchanged just like stocks but can also be created or redeemed to reflect investor demand. Each week, we analyze changes in shares outstanding, identifying ETFs that experience significant inflows (indicating new units created) or outflows (signifying units extinguished). When new units are created, the ETF must purchase its underlying assets, while the destruction of units compels the sale of those assets. Therefore, large transactions can significantly influence the components held within ETFs.
