I've been out of the loop for a few hours. Lot's of folks moving to the I....are you seeing what I'm seeing (most of the OSM indexs sitting at support) or did I lead a blind charge down a high risk path? 
By the way things look currently, I'll be moving to the S in a day or two.

Japan, where white collar workers are known as salarymen, is ripe for management buyouts, known as MBOs. It is filled with companies trying to refocus after more than a decade of economic stagnation and amid lingering worries about overseas competition and an aging population. Low interest rates are helping fuel the boomlet, because buyouts often involve lots of borrowed money. A wave of hostile takeover battles is also helping drive the action, as many managers want to move first before their companies are eaten.
So far this year in Japan, 53 management buyout deals valued at a total $3.2 billion have been announced. That number is 33% more than the $2.4 billion posted during all of 2005, and more than six times the $522.5 million racked up in 2001. Those figures pale in comparison to the U.S., where 112 MBOs valued at $63 billion have been announced this year. But Japan's management buyout market is much larger than those in other large countries, like Germany where there have been 33 announced MBO deals totaling $59 million this year..

Why would there be a FV today? Dollar up, US market a little less than flat and Overseas a loser? If they slop a -FV on us today they are really nitpickin'! Crooks!Probably put what ever there is in the bank for another day!
So what happens for a day like today? There were losses after the OSM closed (just before noon) but not large enough to trigger an -FV. The losses did not hurt people invested today (like a negative FV would have) but still have to show up. Am I correct that they show up in an adjusted opening price? That is, the MSC index will open lower than it closed. If currency and OSM were absolutley flat, price would rise quickly to offset, by an amount equal to what a +FV would have paid back. So those who jumped from the lilly pad to I fund for tomorrow still get the benefit of the afternoon losses, just as if a positive FV were applied tomorrow. Is this how it works?

No. I'll try to put this in a nice way. You are completely wrong.
Didn't I already mentioned to you about not using the EFA? The EFA is NOT the I fund in our TSP. It's an ETF that gets traded during the day along with the USM. Our I fund(MSCI EAFE), ends at 1200 eastern, when Europe closes, period.
Please go back a few months and read through this thread to get an understanding of the I fund.
