Charting the ETF Course
As exchange-traded funds (ETFs) navigate the market, investors engage in a unique form of trading. Instead of traditional “shares,” they deal in “units.” These units can be traded akin to stocks while also being generated or eliminated to match investor demand. Weekly scrutiny of changes in outstanding shares is essential to detect significant flows, signaling either new units created or old units extinguished. The creation of new units necessitates the acquisition of the ETF’s underlying assets, while the dissolution of units involves divesting those assets, thereby affecting the individual components held within the ETF.
