Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) function similarly to stocks, but instead of buying and selling “shares”, investors trade “units”. These units can be easily exchanged, but can also be created or destroyed based on market demand. Each week, we track the week-over-week changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs showing significant inflows or outflows. The creation of new units requires the purchase of the ETF’s underlying assets, while the destruction of units necessitates selling those assets. Consequently, large flows can affect the individual components within the ETFs.
