This information is very early. I am not recommending this at all. Just put it on the radar screen. Their currency is has dropped about 10% since I started tracking it 8 months ago. Roughly 9000 to 1 USD.
This country has HUGE problems........but with all the attention and agreements with Iraq, Iran stands to gain plenty.
"Since the global trading body, with 148 member-states, votes by consensus, the United States alone was able to block Iran’s membership more than 20 times over a period of nine years.
The decision to open membership talks does not mean Iran will easily gain WTO entry; membership might take years and requires a broad range of economic and political reforms."
Sounds to me like the US made a deal. Maybe drop your nuclear program and we'll let you in?

I agree. Bet there will be quite a few home improvement projects in that country! Are the Iraqi people do-it-yourselfers? :D

Yep, reconstruction in Iraq is projected at $300 billion over the next 20 years....that's an average of $15 billion/year. At 2 million barrels per day, times 365 days/year * $50/barrel = $36.5 billion/year oil industry. The construction industry is projected to be 41% (on average) of the oil industry.
That just might help the economy. :)

I actually bought some here in Kuwait. The money changer looked at my like I was crazy. He called "Khomeini" Money and asked if I was going to party in Tehran. I told him I was going to fly up for the party......there is something strangely erotic about a woman that I can't see for the veil. LOL
God I miss my wife! Precious dear.....If you are looking in tonight.....you know I was just kidding. Don't cha? LOL

....and just so I can say it...I would like to see the Antnapolistan Dinar become an outside viable Dinar....because. The place is a cute little place and no one will let them do it.

I heard on the radio a few weeks ago that President Bush was signing legislation which allowed the seizure of assets of those dealing with the rogue nations of North Korea, Iran, and a few others. Note: This does not include Iraq because he signed a bill expressly permiting Americans to hold Iraqi currency.

good to know....I am sure there are 'outstanding reasons' for it too...
