I see. You are using the $IEE chart, which is the Morgan Stanley $EAFE Index, while today I used the EFA, which is the AMEX EAFE Index Ishares. I am a student also, so I cannot see much of a difference in both charts; although both show that the signal has not risen above 20, which is usually a buy signal for many traders (something which I am not). Anyway, we can easily get whipsawed, unless the U.S. indices keep rallying. Because of the many limitations, including having to do TSP IFT's before noon EDT, unless the Japan and European markets are energized this evening and tomorrow, we have to be ready to pull out in order to avoid shameful losses (IMHO). If you see somethiong of importance, I will appreciate your saying so! Thank you!

Playing the I fund

Fivetears, Gilligan, and Wheels,I acknowledge your fine efforts in calculating the I-fund closing prices as well as FV, and I am grateful. I have to tell you that I have to take my hat off to you, because I don't have that ability. Question: From yesterday's prices, the dollar appears to have risen today, and before noon EDT, in relation to the YEN and the EURO. Assuming that Barclays decides to effectuate FV today, what is the most likey scenario: a positive or a negative FV?
Like I've said before, Barclays doesn't necassarily need a reason to FV, and they don't always go the way you would think. That being said I don't see anything in today's dollar movement that would trigger one. If our markets continue to rally however, that might trigger a positive FV.
Thanks Wheels!

We are even, Barclays normally evens it up within 2 trading days.

Well said. If the US markets hold up, we might see a +10 cent FV.

A couple of months ago it seems like we were getting FV’ed every other day. The last time I remember getting a FV was August 29th for 15 to 16 cents and then we got the correction on August 30th,that keep the share price at $20.12, so to keep up with Barclays 20% FV quota, we are due a FV.

That I fund represents a gain of about 1.2% so we have ourselves an FV of .11 cents.

Japanese Stocks May Gain on Cheaper Oil, Yen; Toyota May Rise
By Patrick Rial
Sept. 13 (Bloomberg) -- Japanese stocks may rise after oil declined for a seventh day, lowering costs for companies and consumers, and the yen weakened against the dollar, boosting exporters' revenue. Toyota Motor Corp. may pace gains.
``The markets are set for a rather large rebound today,'' said Hiroichi Nishi, an equities manager at Nikko Cordial Securities Inc. in Tokyo. ``With oil at a more than 5-month low, it's looking like companies will report profits on the higher end of expectations next month.''
Nikkei 225 Stock Average futures expiring in December last traded at 15,955 in Chicago, up from 15,650 in Osaka and 15,665 in Singapore. The Bank of New York Japan ADR Index, which tracks the nation's American depositary receipts, added 0.6 percent.
Yesterday, the Nikkei declined 0.5 percent to 15,719.34 and the broader Topix index fell 0.7 percent to 1585.98.
Stocks may also gain after better-than-expected profit from companies including Goldman Sachs Group Inc. increased confidence earnings will continue to grow in the U.S.
A weaker yen increases the value of Japanese exporters' dollar denominated sales when converted back into local currency, while their products become more competitive abroad.

And Asia is off the the races.
Even with FV a lot of us are hoping for a really good showing in the I fund. Well we are off to a great start, so lets hope it follows through. Only economic data out tomorrow is Treasury Budget.
What we really need is.........................the dollar to tank for a day or two after the Nikkei closed up 3%.
