It’s important to note that ETFs function similarly to stocks but involve trading “units” instead of “shares.” These units can be created or destroyed based on investor demand, enabling flexibility in trading. Weekly, we track changes in outstanding units to identify ETFs with significant inflows—indicating many new units created—or outflows—indicating many units removed. The creation of new units typically requires the purchase of the ETF’s underlying assets, while the destruction of units entails selling those holdings. Thus, large inflows or outflows can influence the individual assets within these ETFs.
