UnFair Valuation Tally
...
05/30/07 I-fund 0.163% MSCI -0.503% <= UfV 0.666%

Is anyone else bothered by a 666 FV?
Is Barclay "signing" their work?:suspicious:

Scary avatar 12%, but yes RALLY RALLY RALLY!!!!!:nuts:

Unexpectedly strong Chicago PMI is giving the dollar a lift and the 10 year yield just shot up above 4.9%. I hope this doesn't happen but I think they might sell-off this afternoon and Barclays will happily screw us with a FV correction and a -FV.

The I Fund is way overdue for a huge pop. I stayed in,betting we have one tomorrow> It seems many bailed for the G penny payout. I tend to disagree with that move.

 

[McDuck]

I feel so very fortunate not to understand a word of this. It makes me less fearful.

You don't understand how they do their Unfair Valuations?

 

[SkyPilot]

From the TSP Website:​

The return on the Barclays Fund (and on the I Fund) will differ from that of the EAFE Index on days when Barclays makes a "fair valuation" adjustment to reprice the securities held by the fund.

Fair valuation adjustments are made on days when there are large movements in either U.S. equity markets or currency exchange rates after the foreign markets have closed. Fair valuation prevents traders from exploiting "stale"
prices, thus diluting the returns of other TSP participants who invest in the I Fund.​

I'd be the last one here to contradict your predictions on the I fund. I'm just asking what you consider to be a "huge pop". At $24.52 yesterday, the share price has gone up 14 of the 20 trading days in May, with a recent 20 cent jump on the 23rd..(followed by a 35 cent drop on the 24th.) Again, just wondering, not contradicting...

Today was a big day, international market wise. If not for yesterday's +FV, we'd be getting 23 cents today.
