Each week, we monitor the changes in shares outstanding to identify ETFs that are experiencing significant inflows (indicating new units created) or outflows (indicating old units destroyed). The creation of new units necessitates the purchase of the underlying holdings of the ETF, while the destruction of units involves selling those holdings. Consequently, large flows can significantly impact the individual components held within ETFs.<\/p>\n![\"SPDR](\"https:\/\/www.nasdaq.com\/sites\/acquia.prod\/files\/ARP-Inline-Image.png\")
