Understanding ETF Trading Dynamics
Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) function like stocks, with investors buying and selling “units” instead of shares. These units can be traded like stocks and can also be created or destroyed based on investor demand. Each week, we monitor share outstanding data to identify ETFs experiencing significant inflows or outflows. When new units are created, the ETF must acquire more underlying holdings, while unit destruction involves selling underlying shares. Consequently, large flows can significantly impact the individual components held within ETFs.
