Understanding ETF Trading

ETFs function similarly to stocks; however, investors are actually trading “units” rather than shares. These “units” can be bought and sold just like stock shares, but they can also be created or destroyed to meet investor demand. Each week, we examine changes in outstanding unit counts to identify ETFs that face significant inflows (new units created) or outflows (old units dissolved). A surge in new units indicates that the ETF’s underlying assets must be acquired, while a decrease suggests that these assets are being sold. Significant movements can influence the performance of the ETFs’ components.
