Understanding ETF Trading Dynamics

Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) function similarly to stocks; however, investors buy and sell “units.” These units can be created or eliminated based on investor demand. Our weekly monitoring tracks changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs with significant inflows (new units created) or outflows (units removed). The creation of new units requires purchasing the ETF’s underlying assets, while a reduction involves selling them, potentially impacting individual components.
