Like individual stocks, ETFs are traded units that can be bought and sold. The creation or destruction of these units affects the underlying holdings of the ETF. Monitoring changes in shares outstanding data can help investors track notable inflows and outflows, which can impact individual components within the ETF. For example, a significant increase in new units might require purchasing underlying assets, while a large decrease in old units could involve selling those same assets.
