Walkingstick There is no issue with the HCL and the Kurds and Baghdad. IOO ( in our opinion) the budget equals the HCL and the HCL equals the new exchange rate.
Militia Man …Alaq, the Central Bank Governor, he’s not new to Iraq. This man’s been involved for many many years. He led the Arab Monetary Fund. He spent time there as the head honcho and now he’s back here to do what? To finish this process. He recently stated the Iraqi dinar and/or subsequently the project to delete the zeros from the exchange rate still exists. If anybody’s telling you this is a joke you really got to think about it and say did he really say that?

While some might shrug it off, it’s wreaking havoc in the commercial real estate world. Office landlords in major cities are struggling with vast, vacant spaces. And on the home front? More folks are finding it tough to keep up with their mortgages.
According to Mike, crossing the 4% mark on the 10-year treasury rate is a game-changer. It affects our home payments and influences where people invest. Mike breaks it all down in his video.
It’s a must watch to stay ahead of this potential developing crisis in commercial real estate.
