07/01/2014
tmellraney: Hi Frank and Delta. Now that you guys are on now. I know your probably waiting for tonight's CC. But can you give us a little something of what's actually going on?
Frank26: A temper tantrum with strategic emotional outbreaks usually associated with children or those in emotional distress but in this case to grab hold of political positioning before it is TAKEN.
As in toddlers this is typically characterized by a wide range from whining and crying to screaming ... Kicking ... Hitting and ........ Biting.
Hey ........ You asked ......
"What to expect next"............. Hmmm.
Remember ......... I STRONGLY BELIEVE we will see a GOI and an IR in 2014.
Almost to point of gar ran teeeeee ........... Thank goodness I do not know how to spell Guarantee.....................

harley_1: Frankie Frankie... Just needing some clarification....the article below refers to the ISX upgrading their existing NASDAQ trading platform software (which they have been using since April, 2009) to the newest platform that "complies with" international standards which will "equip ISX with a sophisticated and robust trading platform that increases investor involvement both in the Middle East and internationally".
The article never states that on July 1 (or 2) that they "will" be trading internationally, only that the new platform will provide them with the technology and enable them to do so (at some point).
I guess my analogy here would be if I bought a Corvette, it wouldn't mean that I would actually use the horsepower under the hood at all times, but it would be there for me when I am ready to use it at the appropriate time.
Is there anything we can point to that says, yes when they turn the computers on they will be trading internationally regardless of the rate of exchange?
Thanks for your time.

The Iraq Stock Exchange Upgrades to NASDAQ OMX's X-Stream Technology
NEW YORK and BAGHDAD, Iraq, June 28, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The NASDAQ OMX Group (Nasdaq:NDAQ) has entered an agreement with the Iraq Stock Exchange (ISX) to upgrade its current trading platform. Under the terms of the agreement, ISX will replace its existing NASDAQ OMX platform (Horizon) with one powered by the renowned X-stream technology. The upgrade is expected to be rolled out by mid-year 2014.
"We are committed to becoming one of the most innovative and groundbreaking exchanges, in the Middle East and across the world," said Taha A. Abdulsalam, CEO, Iraq Stock Exchange. "Upgrading our trading technology and continuing our partnership with NASDAQ OMX is a clear indication to investors, regulators and other exchanges that Iraq will continue to become a financial center for more regional and global businesses."
The upgrade to X-stream will provide ISX with a widely deployed high-end, multi-asset trading platform that complies with international standards. The migration to X-stream is a step in ISX's ambition to become a Middle Eastern hub, able to host and facilitate other regional markets. NASDAQ OMX has delivered trading technology to ISX since 2007.
"We congratulate the Iraq Stock Exchange on their commitment to a trading platform that is certain to put them at the technology forefront of exchanges in the Middle East," Lars Ottersgard, Senior Vice President, Market Technology, NASDAQ OMX. "The upgrade to X-stream technology will equip ISX with a sophisticated and robust trading platform that increases investor involvement both in the Middle East and internationally."
In less than a decade, traded shares in ISX increased almost 10-fold, to more than 1.2 billion traded shares expected in 2013, while market capitalization increased more than seven times over the same period to over $12,170 billion USD in the first six months of 2013 alone.
"We are extremely proud to support ISX's positive development and their vision to provide a well-recognized marketplace in the region," said Michèle Carlsson, Head of Business Development, Middle East and Africa, NASDAQ OMX. "ISX recently implemented one of the most successful IPOs in the Middle East and by upgrading to our X-stream technology, ISX will be running a resilient market place that will attract both Iraqi and international investors."
NASDAQ OMX's X-stream technology is currently used by over 25 exchanges globally.
