Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) function similarly to stocks; however, investors deal in “units” instead of shares. These units can be traded like stocks, but they can also be created or destroyed based on investor demand. To keep track of developments, we continuously monitor week-over-week changes in shares outstanding. This helps us identify ETFs experiencing significant inflows, where new units are created, or outflows, where existing units are removed. When new units are created, the ETF must acquire underlying assets, while the removal of units typically requires selling off those assets. As a result, substantial flows can influence the individual components within ETFs.
