Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) operate similarly to stocks; however, investors buy and sell “units” instead of shares. These units are flexible, as they can be created or eliminated based on demand. Each week, we track changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs with notable inflows (new units created) or outflows (existing units destroyed). The generation of new units requires purchasing the underlying assets of the ETF, while the elimination of units entails selling these assets, potentially influencing the individual securities held within the ETFs.
