Frank26   What have the articles been telling usThat the Iraqi dinar and the American dollar are divorcing by mechanisms...It's causing the American dollar to go down...just in one week 150 to 140 to... 135.  The value of the Iraqi dinar is going up as the American dollar inside of Iraq is being put away...it's not in the picture anymore.  

Mnt Goat   Article:  "SUDANESE ADVISOR: EXCHANGE RATES WILL REACH 135 THOUSAND PER 100 DOLLARS SOON"  If this really does happen we will be in great shape to see the one more program rate change we have been waiting for. But remember they will probably wait and monitor the rate to ensure it is first stable, How long we don’t know.  But this is fantastic news today.
