Exchange traded funds (ETFs) trade just like stocks — investors buy and sell “units”. “Units” can be traded back and forth just like stocks, but can also be created or destroyed to accommodate investor demand. Creation of new units means the underlying holdings of the ETF need to be purchased, while destruction of units involves selling underlying holdings.
