Playing the I fund

It's looking like a good +FV steal day..that is if you got out this morning.


Iagree, if the US market holds, we are looking at +10 FV. If the dollar was to fall another .2, we might get +15 or +20 FV.:)


Although, I've never seen a 15 cent FV myself, just +/- 10 or 20.
 
Now can we see a huge follow through tonight in the foreign markets. Europe closed after the big buy at 2:45PM, so I'm thinking tomorrow will be a major up day for all markets.

Snort Snort:D :D :D
 
Can someone do a "Doug Heffernan" and incessantly hit the refresh button on the MSCI site until they post? Thanks, I have to battle rush hour.
 
It's in and we got screwed. Look for a +FV

0.305%

I don't think we got screwed. That's essentially the 7 cents that was predicted above, just before the trading deadline, and represents the state of things at noon. Nothing after that time can affect the price except through an FV, which I certainly hope for and expect. If we don't get it, then "screwed" is an understatement.
 
Remember EZ was in the RED and it comprises about 75% of the I fund. Asian is only 25% of the I fund. Dollar rebounded a bit and the FTSE is the heavy weight in the bunch and the USD was stronger against the Sterling. Don't forget the I fund does not track the EAFE exactly and I have seen it do this before. This last Monday I feel the I fund got shorted and squeaked some FV out of it the next day.

you should think --who-- what-- and ---where not i got screwed (my english teacher taught me that to discribe an action) something like that but we must understand why things happen and this is what the forum is all about.
 
There was no FV on the 11/7.

You are correct.:embarrest: The more correct way for me to put it would be the EAFE and the I Fund gains were out of sync.

Nov. 6th EAFE was up 1.482% but the I fund showed up 0.717%.

Nov. 7th EAFE was up 0.112% but the I fund showed up 1.140%.

If you bailed out of the I fund on Nov. 6th you got screwed out of 0.70%. If you jumped into the I fund on Nov. 6th you got a bonus of + 1.03%. Probably clear as mud.

The EAFE is meaningless. I only use it to guage the possibility of a FV.

Here's how I would've said it; If you bailed out on the 6th, you screwed YOURSELF out of .70%. If you jumped into the I fund on the 6th, you made agreat move and EARNED 1.03%.:)
 
G---
F+.02
C+.10
S+.20
I+.17-----looks like +.10 cent FV (remember they will correct it tomorrow or the following day)


Yes, and I would add this: For those of you that are still in the I fund, the FED minutes will be released tomorrow in the afternoon. If US market rallies big on those minutes, Barclay might hold off on correcting today's FV till the following day. That's just my opinion.
