Understanding Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)
Unlike traditional stock shares, ETFs function by trading units that can be bought or sold similarly to stocks. These units are flexible, allowing for creation or destruction based on investor demand. Tracking weekly changes in shares outstanding helps identify notable inflows (creation of new units) or outflows (destruction of units) within ETFs. Noteworthy flows can significantly impact the underlying holdings within ETFs.
