Yes, this makes sense.  The MOQ does not sound right.  I like to think of it
more in terms of growth.  Hopefully agreement has a place there.  As I
reread my own sentence I would perhaps say, "on the outcome of MOQ in a
general sense".  This also has its problems since it is anticipating
something which I cannot box in at this time.  So, your comment was well
received, mine was somewhat poorly expressed.

Thanks,
Mark
