Frank26 Major powerful countries are coming into Iraq. It’s going to effect their currency exchange rate. More than anything else it will rocket their float and that when you have to be very astute. Watch it…You’ve got to watch the rate in the float. Know when to hold’m and know when to fold’m. Know when to backoff.
Breitling Look at the opportunity for Iraq. They’re saying, ‘Hey, we need to sell energy in these other currencies.’ The United States is like ‘No problem. We don’t care. We’re expanding our markets anyways.’ There might have been in the past a situation where if Iraq sold energy in other currencies that we lost market share. But that’s not the case coming down the road...Iraq…figured out a plan to go forward to be able to sell to as many customers as possible. That’s how they want to add value to the currency is taking that route. It’s good for the United States. It’s good for Iraq…
