Mnt Goat   I call my CBI contact almost every Saturday and get the full scoop of what is really happening in Iraq and the efforts of the CBI.  Since we have NOT heard of any official word of progress about the redenomination process it is not yet happening I can assure you.  However, we can sit still and know it is still in the plan because I know it is and it has to happen sooner than later, just not yet.

Frank26  [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report]  FIREFLY:  They're back on channel one saying it will be weeks now that the street rates should match the official rate...they went from weeks to soon and now they're back to weeks again...  FRANK:  ...Rumors are rampant.  One minute they say one thing, the next minute they say something else.  That's why we tell you only pay attention to Sudani and the governor of the CBI...

SHocKeR! INFLATION CONTINUES TO RISE WITH NO End In Sight! YIELD CURVE FALLS.
