Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) function similarly to stocks, but investors trade “units” instead of “shares.” These units can be exchanged on the market and, depending on demand, may be created or destroyed. Monitoring week-over-week changes in shares outstanding helps identify ETFs with significant inflows (new unit creation) or outflows (unit destruction). Increased creation of units necessitates buying underlying holdings, while destruction involves selling them. This can affect the individual components within these ETFs.
