Understanding ETF Unit Trading
Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) operate similarly to stocks, allowing investors to buy and sell “units.” Unlike shares, these units can be created or destroyed based on market demand. Each week, we track changes in outstanding shares to identify ETFs experiencing significant inflows or outflows. When new units are created, the ETF must acquire the underlying assets, while the destruction of units necessitates selling those assets. Large flows can impact the individual components that ETFs hold.
