ETFs, or exchange-traded funds, operate similarly to stocks, though investors are essentially trading “units.” These units can be bought and sold like stocks, but they can also be created or eliminated based on investor interest. Each week, we analyze the changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs with significant inflows, which may indicate buying pressure, or outflows, suggesting selling activity. The creation of new units typically necessitates purchasing the ETF’s underlying assets, while the destruction of units may involve selling those assets, impacting individual stocks held by the ETF.
