350Z's 2007 I Fund Thread

[buda]

any new estimates...im locked down tight here...

 

[350zCommTech]

Up .083% or 2 cents, plus 30 -FVC = 32 cents.

It's a NO BRAINER folks...

Remember our last no brainer last week(Thursday/Friday). Barc put the screws to us with a higher +FV. Ended up losing 11 pennys Friday. Think I'll keep 50% in US markets and put the other 50% on the I.

I'm sur Barclays has an account here and does adjustments accordingly.

lol

I'm so sorry folks. I was looking at the wrong spreadsheet.


I fund should be down .130% or -3 cents, plus 30 -FVC = 27 cents.

The small caps are the laggard of the bunch. It gave back (2.57) in 4 trading days vs. (1.03) in the I FUND 4 days. (2.12) in the C Fund 4 days.

I thought our last no brainer was on the Friday when the Fed cut the discount rate. We only made a penny the following Monday because of it.

Actually, the I fund is the laggard today. It finished down .130%. It's only making money because of the -FVC. As long as we don't get a +FV today, the I fund should be huge tomorrow.

we shall see tomorrow!!! Btw..I look at %s and the S FUND is the laggard. Today, the I Fund is the winner so far and was down 2.41 vs. 2.33 for the S Fund yesterday.

MSCI EAFE = -.110% or -3 cents.


BTW, I hate this F@%R#$%# I fund!!!!!!!

 

[Wrngway]

Looks like another +FV from the action today.

I remember posting last night that Nikkie was down 2.93%.

Call my doctor, I've got a bad case of wiplash!

350z, you got it right didn't you? -3 cents plus the +30 cents UFV gets us +27 cents for the day (any +FV today not included).

 

[350zCommTech]

(any +FV today not included).

That is what I'm pissed off about. We're going to see a +FV today.

 

[12%ayear]

you are looking at a @ +30 cents fv, that was part of the reason why I bailed to the S Fund. The afternoon BS. That +fv always sucks if you are entering the I FUND the next day. Hate that!! Barclay needs to change this policy.

 

[Jonathan]

Heh - well, I'm in the I-fund today and tomorrow, so any fv will even out...

For people in it today and tomorrow, youare fine. However;for new entries, it is unfair. They have to start the day with a ( 1.30%). That is why it is hard to trade the I Fund.

I agree. Of course, I think it's hard to trade on a day-to-day basis, anyway, given the 12:00 deadline for IFT's. A lot can happen in the afternoon that can impact any of the funds the following day.

That's one reason why I think it's better to look at long-term trends with respect to the TSP (though I'm giving Ebb's system a fair shake right now).

 

[qibovin]

you are looking at a @ +30 cents fv

Is that the MBS?
It'd be nice to see Barclay's exercise a bit of restraint for a change. They have way overshot the last couple of +FV's.:worried:

no, it is just a guess. It looks like a reversal of yesterday.

The +FV should be 20 cents. But since I went 100% I fund instead of spreading it around, Barclay will probably give us the MBS of +28 cents.


I think I need to go sacrifice a chicken or something.....
