If we have a ratio of two fund returns, under the risk-neutral measure $y=frac left. F_T^2 middle/ F_0^2 right.left. F_T^1 middle/ F_0^1 right.$.
Let $X_t$ represents the price of asset 2 at time $t$.
$$Xt=E_tleft[fracF_T^2expleft(int_0^T r_u d_u right)right]$$
Then it can be seen that
$$X_t=fracF_t^2 expleft( int_0^t r_u d_u right ) underbrace E_tleft[ frac left. F_T^2 middle/ F_t^2 right. expleft(int_t^T r_u d_u right)right] _=1$$
My question: why is the last expectation equal to $1$?

    Please check if I messed up the math in my edit. BTW if you're doing this kind of big fractions a lot you should learn to use the middle slash, as well as a good habit of using the automatically sizing delimiters.
