Some institutional investors establish a significant position in etfs such as SPDR SP in order to find ways to drive up its value. Retail investors, on the other hand, need to know that institutional holders can own millions of shares of SPDR SP, and when they decide to sell, the etf will often sell-off, which may instantly impact shareholders' value. So, traders who get in early or near the beginning of the institutional investor's buying cycle could potentially generate profits.
Please note, institutional investors have a lot of resources and new technology at their disposal. They can put in a lot of research and financial analysis when reviewing investment options. There are many different types of institutional investors, including banks, hedge funds, insurance companies, and pension plans. One of the main advantages they have over retail investors is the fees paid for trades. As they are buying in large quantities, they can manage their cost more effectively.
