ETF Dynamics
Within the realm of exchange-traded funds (ETFs), units act akin to shares. Investors engage in the buying and selling of units like stocks, with the added flexibility of unit creation and destruction to meet investor demand. Regular monitoring of changes in shares outstanding data on a week-over-week basis allows for the detection of notable inflows (signifying the creation of many new units) or outflows (indicating the destruction of many old units). The creation of new units prompts the purchase of underlying holdings, while the destruction of units involves the selling of these holdings. Notably, substantial flows can impact the individual components within ETFs.
