Expense Ratio: The fund's operating expenses, including management fees, can affect its overall profitability and impact the price.

Supply and Demand: The balance between investors buying (demand) and selling (supply) the fund's shares influences its market price, potentially leading to premiums or discounts relative to its NAV.
