If there are specific terms in your Marital Settlement Agreement or Judgment that address valuation at time of division, the Judgment language will control.
It also depends on the asset. If you are dividing the community portion of a retirement or brokerage acount, for example, the community would share in the gains and losses of the underlying securities. If a savings account has not been divided and has been accruing interest, both parties would typically share in that interest.
