…there is always one news article to grab my attention and stands out from the rest…WOW, WOW, WOW news. It says that the purpose of foreign currency in Iraq is to deal with it outside the [national] economy, so it is not possible to consider the existence of a price in the dollar and a price in the dinar: one rises and the other falls. No monetary policy can control such a situation…Folks this is just what we have been waiting for so long to hear…This is huge news. [Post 1 of 2……]
They are finally getting off the sanctioned use of ONLY US dollars for trade outside Iraq. Yes, they are beginning to act now like they are out of the UN 1991 & 2003 sanctions, that by the way, happened over a year ago. So, yes, it is about time. We all should be jumping for joy and maybe even taking a couple sips (I said just a couple) of that refrigerated champagne… lol.. lol.. lol. Save the rest for what is coming next and that includes going to the bank. [post 2 of 2]
