ETFs, like SUB, operate similarly to stocks. Investors buy and sell “units” instead of shares. These units can be traded just like stocks and can also be created or destroyed based on investor demand. Each week, we monitor the changes in shares outstanding, looking for ETFs with significant inflows (new units created) or outflows (old units destroyed). An increase in units typically means that new underlying assets need to be purchased, while a decrease involves selling assets, potentially influencing the individual components within the ETFs.
