Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) operate similarly to stocks, but investors actually buy and sell “units” instead of traditional shares. These units can be traded like stocks, and they can also be created or destroyed based on investor demand. Each week, we analyze the changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs with significant inflows (new units created) or outflows (existing units destroyed). The creation of new units requires purchasing the ETF’s underlying assets, whereas unit destruction involves selling those holdings, which can affect the individual components within ETFs.
