Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) operate similarly to stocks. However, instead of trading “shares,” investors buy and sell “units.” These “units” can be traded like stocks but can also be created or destroyed based on investor demand. Each week, we track the changes in shares outstanding data to identify ETFs with significant inflows (indicating new units created) or outflows (indicating old units destroyed). The creation of new units typically necessitates purchasing the ETF’s underlying holdings, while the destruction of units requires selling them. Thus, large inflows or outflows can influence the individual components within ETFs.
