An ETF Rundown
ETFs function akin to stocks, whereby investors trade “units” rather than shares. These units exhibit tradability akin to stocks and can be generated or eliminated as per investor demand. Weekly monitoring of the shifts in shares outstanding scrutinizes ETFs encountering noteworthy inflows (signifying the formation of numerous new units) or outflows (reflecting the destruction of an abundance of old units). The inception of new units necessitates the procurement of the ETF’s underlying assets, while unit destruction entails the liquidation of underlying holdings, thereby substantial flows exert an impact on the individual components retained within ETFs.
