For context, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) operate similarly to stocks, but rather than purchasing “shares,” investors are trading “units.” These units can be easily bought and sold like stocks and are designed to adjust for investor demand by being created or destroyed. Each week, we track changes in the number of shares outstanding to identify ETFs with significant inflows (a creation of new units) or outflows (destruction of old units). Such fluctuations can directly influence the underlying assets held within the ETFs.
