You are using Money 2005, and the amount comes from a number that
should not have any effect. But there it is. I don't know why some
positions are affected and others are not.
If you care to do QIF export and import, it can be eliminated by not
entering an estimate when you create accounts. Otherwise you can
live with it and hope a later version rectifies it; use the
GroupBy:AccountName when you want the MarketValue column to work
properly.
