RE: Petra Post Thursday Night  

Ross: I always thought the CBI would be first to reveal the rate change and not the GOI.  IM hopeful maybe the process/notice has already started and the last day of January will be the great reveal. Just dreaming again. Great opportunity for Iraq to not kick the can again.  If you are hanging on by just a thread like me then this would be an opportune time to fast and pray IMO.

Briscom:  IMO, it maybe a good idea for us all to keep peeking at the overseas markets Sunday evening into early Monday morning.

Pimpy Article: "The president of the Republic receives a written message from the king of Jordan" Each country's currency gets its value from strong economies...so when you see these countries coming together to work with one another in business and and trade all it does is strengthens their economy. That's what we want to look for. I told you don't just look for an RV or an RI...there are other factors that we can be watching. Pay attention to what's happening in the economy...

Jeff  ...You've seen this financial article...that said the dollar exchange rate would remain high for a period of 3 years...there were things I've taught you guys in this but you didn't apply it...how many of those articles did you see?  Only one.  Nothing more.  I've taught you that you need to see more than one.  When they devalued the currency on December 20th we saw a lot of articles.  Not just one.  We saw a bunch.  Second, the article talking about the dollar exchange rate remaining high...that only came from the Parliamentary Finance Committee...if it doesn't come from the Central Bank it's don't hold any credibility...I need to see it from the Central Bank...we need to see more than one article and it's got to come from the Central Bank...
