I was under the impression, the ISX only traded on Tuesday's and Thursday's. Is this correct? If so, then why would they execute a trade on November 1st, 2006 a Wednesday?

Moving the decimal point would yield 1.47 IRD= $1.00. This would then read $0.68 = 1 IRD. Still a very good number. My family has in the mid 8 figures of dinars and I can handle that math.

Your math is 100% correct, a 3 place move of the decimal will move us from
1 usd =1470iqd to 1 usd= 1.47 IQD since each dollar buys more than one IQD then each IQD is worth less than a USD

I have said before that they can do whatever they want to the exchange rate, they are not limited to a decimal place move. If they want it at $1.50 they will jsut say it is now worth $1.50, I don't see any big advantage in shifting decimals.

I was already corrected. It's Monday's and Wednesday's.

QUESTIONER: Regarding the Regional Economic Outlook that came out the other day for the Middle East, there were numbers there on Iraq, projecting growth of 14.4 percent next year after growth of 4 percent this year, though throughout the report it speaks of nothing really going well for the Iraq economy. Is this kind of a guess, hoping that things stabilize, or what goes into that 14.4 percent growth estimate?

MR. HAWLEY: I am afraid I have got nothing specific to add to what was in the REO comment on Iraq. The best I can do is to offer to have someone come back to you with more detail on the thinking behind that projection.

[The growth forecast for 2007 will depend on Iraq's ability to generate investment amounting to some 30 percent of GDP in total. To the extent that the investment cannot be undertaken, growth will be lower. As Box 3 of the latest Regional Economic Outlook notes, significant challenges remain for Iraq in pursuing its program

Okay, so just to recap what we've learned on this day (as well as to provide a public service to those who've been away most of the day today):

1. CBI Site is still down
2. Only an ***** would take the site down just to update it.
3. No auctions since Monday.
4. Kurdish Satellite News shows people with a credit-card-sized blue piece of paper that they are all just uber-stoked about having.
5. GBush (the user) is apparently is a wealth of misinformation
6. When the three-legged, one-eyed wolf howls on a moon-less night, we'll see a reval.

Did I miss anything?

And how do I get one of those snazzy blue credit-card-sized pieces of paper. They seem like happiness in your pocket. And let's keep it out of the gutter, please. :þ

umm i know oh a 3 legged 1 eyed wolf thats in the woods near my grandparents house they've been tryin to kill it for years
