I am keeping some graphs and statistics for the ISX on my website www.IraqStockX.com. I removed the forum in respect to investorsiraq admins, but have decided to reactivate the forum while IIF is having problems. My forum is for ISX discussion only - all other political and Dinar comments will be deleted. It is for serious ISX people only.

I will consider taking the forum back down if IIF gets going again depending on the position of IIF admins.

nice job scotty on the graphs- must've taken long time to put together.

Everyone should take note of prices from Jan -5- May 05
MEB, Commercial Bank, Warka, Dar, Credit Bank, Bank of Baghdad etc-
this was during the time of bank mergers with Dar and credit bank and government was just elected.

Citizens optimism was high.
Even Islamic and Basra,Mosul were 5x higher than now

then the sectarian killings and security deteriated and the ISX followed down.
Keep in mind the prices are not down 85% from straight losses since early 05. Splits and paid capital shares need to be factured as well

Take Warka for example
early 05 ran up to 32 then has done splits of
380%
100%
64%
29.17%

so despite the price now reflecting as 1.5 dinars per share- investors are basically break even

Security has improved greatly, now we just need the Etrade and Foreign investment law implemented

Thanks for the comments guys. My primary thought regarding the ISX is when will it take off? I have a graph on the front page showing that winners have outpaced losers over the last 20 or so trading days compared to the last 100 days. I would think that when the ISX really starts to grow, trading volume will increase consistently. I am going to place that graph on the home page also.

Do you have dates for these splits?

And do you have more info on other company splits?

These "splits" are a joke and simply their attempt to throw a few dinars at us. When is all this "foreign money" and the "brokerage accounts" going to nail this exchange and actually create true growth. Or is the Iraqi infrastructure and economy continually on hold ad infinitum. Currently, the ISX sucks as bad as the growth and expansion of the dinar, and almost as bad as the near-term future of the NYSE.

Many investors from Iraqs neighbors are waiting on 2 things-
implementation of the etrading which they believe will minimize
corruption in comparison to eraser board trading.
Secondly, they seek the protection of the FULL foreign investment and
Securities law. Law was passed in Oct/Nov 06 or so but never fully
implemented.

Earlier this year, Amman held a conference where this new securities law was discussed.
One broker believes the etrading will commence before the full implementation of the New FI & Securities Law.

Geo,
Can you repost your quote about how bad the ISX was but you have more invested in iraq than anywhere else?

that was classic!


One only needs to see the 4 single stock ISX purchases of over $ 1
million USD(since August) to realize we have invested in something
worth being patient on.

These folks didn't become wealthy by making bad investments.

What stands out even more than the $ 1million amount is the fact these
purchases were made in a bourse with only $ 1.5B market cap.
