Well look at that! The F fund and the G fund were the only ones to post positive for the day (even though AGG finished in the red). The F fund has redeemed itself

I watched EFA and saw it end @ -.20% and thought, "eh, that's not too bad."
Difference between the EFA and actual I fund strikes again. But yes, at least the move was still profitable. At least more profitable than the F was the last 3 days.

Make you wonder if BlackRock is on to the Daily, and is intentionally keeping funds from matching the target index on a day to day basis.

The F train never really was much of a chugger in the first place

I think they do adjust based on the total net amount purchased or sold...they only have 4 hours to readjust--F/C/S holdings are generally pretty close to the benchmark while the I Fund pricing tends to lag.
