2-20-2014 Newshound Guru Adam Montana

2-20-2014   Newshound Guru Adam Montana   [After crunching the Currency Auction Data, I come to the realization that Iraq is running on USD rather than IQD. We don't seem to be waiting on events such as Erbil, CH7/8 or the 2014 budget but rather Iraq becoming a International tradable currency. How do you feel about that?]   Actually - my answer is going to explain why I don't pay too much attention to the auctions. Iraq is not "running on USD" - they have a currency (IQD) that is pegged to the dollar (USD) and the purpose of the auctions is merely for the CBI to control the money supply, inflation, and the value of the dinar.  With that said, I do still believe that the keys to progress here are still the same (such as Erbil, HCL, etc).
