Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) function similarly to stocks, but investors are trading in “units” rather than traditional shares. These units can be created or destroyed based on investor demand, making it crucial to monitor changes in shares outstanding. Each week, we track these week-over-week changes to identify ETFs that may be experiencing significant inflows or outflows. The creation of new units necessitates the purchase of underlying holdings, while unit destruction entails selling those holdings. Therefore, large flows can significantly impact the individual components held within ETFs.
