Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) function similarly to stocks, except investors buy and sell “units” instead of “shares.” These units can be easily exchanged among investors, yet they can also be created or eliminated based on market demand. Each week, we track changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs experiencing notable inflows, indicating that many new units have been created, or outflows, suggesting that many old units have been eliminated. An increase in new units means the ETF must purchase more of its underlying assets, while a decrease signifies selling off those assets. Thus, substantial changes can impact the individual stocks within these ETFs.
