Dinar Observer Daily

Babysmom – Dinar Guru  …THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC IS “REVIEWING” THE BUDGET. …HE HAS 15 DAYS TO SIGN/ RATIFY THE BUDGET OR IT AUTOMATICALLY BECOMES LAW. HE HAS SAID ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS HE PLANS TO SIGN IT.

Paulette – Dinar Guru  Community comment [Thank you for your Application to join the WTO Iraq – just an FYI – ‘You ain’t getting in with a program rate of 1,300 to 1’]  I disagree…the rate is irrelevant to the World… Very relevant to the CBI who has to supply the actual money…look at Vietnam… Instead, I believe ‘You ain’t getting in unless you are recognized by the IMF as Article VIII compliant‘ is the more appropriate statement.  This brings the IQD back to FOREX and easily exchange worldwide.

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  They said in numerous articles that once we have the budget law done that the next step would be to expedite the oil and gas, which is the hydrocarbon law that takes care of the citizens.

Kaperoni – Dinar Guru   Passing the tripartite budget is more or less the beginning of events that will follow. They now have the ability to launch the rebuilding of their country, encourage foreign investment, continue to develop the banking system.

Paulette – Dinar Guru   ALL is GOOD as of today.  Look at all they have and are putting in place just this year.  I like this window going into July for something to change.   However, stay grounded as we really do not know…We know they have plans to change their currency and ultimately, they need to RI their currency.  Whether 2 hours, 2 weeks, 2 months…a change is coming.

Pimpy – Dinar Guru  People are claiming they can’t do reconstruction and anything else with the 1300 exchange rate.  Yeah…They sure the hell can.  That’s why the entire budget is based on that rate…The budget is the largest in history of Iraq.   It’s a 3-year budget.  So for you to go, ‘Oh, they can’t do it at that exchange rate.’ Is absolutely false.  All the calculations were based on the exchange rate they came out with.

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  The budget will not work with a mechanism of 1310 exchange rate. Not a chance.. Al-Alaq the CBI Governor knows that imo.. Very much so…A three year budget is meant for to keep pricing for materials in check and stable. Keep in mind a strong currency will make it cheaper for Iraq to buy materials to re construct the country. It may be something to think about coming here soon.. What an awesome time it is. This budget is not something to take lightly. It is going to be an historic event.

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru  If the CBI was successful in regulating the use of the dollar in Iraq and now the conversion solely to Iraqi dinars as their national currency, then the redenomination to the lower denominations this could go quickly. Of course, there is lots going on here and there will probably be some hiccups as they may expose more corruption in the banks or black marketeers as usual. Anything can happen but there is no turning back now on the process.

Paulette – Dinar Guru  The Budget is NOT law yet…Usually at least 7-10 days to be approved and signed by the President and then 3 days Gazette posting…

Militia Man – Dinar Guru   JP Morgan one of the largest banking entities on the planet, worth about 4 trillion dollars didn’t come into Iraq to do business in a quagmire.  They came to do business in a functioning government with a 3 year budget.  That’s what’s got them motivated to come in and do international trade.  It’s amazing and it’s a key sign things are happening.  So all the folks out there that seem to think there’s no such thing as a reinstatement of the Iraqi dinar or no revolution in the future are highly mistaken…

Pimpy – Dinar Guru  There was a change to the exchange rate.  Yes you heard it.  They changed the Iraq exchange rate. Sure enough it was in there and yes it went in the right direction.  Article quote “…the budget set the exchange rate for oil revenue in US dollars at 1300 dinars per dollar.”   So we shaved another 20 dinars off the exchange rate.  I know 20 dinars is not that big of a deal but anytime we’re taking a step in that direction I’m going to celebrate it no matter how small…Keep removing the amount of dinars you get per dollar, that’s what we want…like I said it’s going to happen in increments.  Hopefully a much bigger step next time but I’ll take it…take the W and be happy with it.

Kaperoni – Dinar Guru   This is a very good first move for Iraq now that they passed this tripartite budget.  It gives them a 3-year window to begin to diversify away from oil.

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru  …what took place these last 4-5 days culminating in completing the passing of the budget, getting it ratified and in the gazette…is important not because the RV rate is in it because it will NEVER be in the budget…The rate used in the budget is $IQD 1300 per 1 $USD certainly not the rate we are looking for…this rate is NOT important and this rate is “flexible”.  I assure you that the reinstatement if [is?] going to happen and is just around the bend…I am still under the timing of quite possibly going to the bank sometime this week. I would be VERY surprised if we don’t. But remember if we don’t, it will still be VERY soon.

Pimpy – Dinar Guru   Oh yeah!  It’s done.  Finally.  A 3 year budget has finally passed the House of Representatives.  Is this a good thing?  Is this a bad thing?  It really depends on the government that’s in place.  Now we’re going to see Maliki and his people’s true colors come out.  The budget has been passed.  They don’t have to kiss anybody’s butt.  The money has been allocated.  This is definitely going to be interesting and this is what I’ve been waiting for.  Let’s see this government’s true colors.

Samson – Dinar Guru  Article:  “Al-Hakim: Urges the House of Representatives to proceed with the entitlements that follow, such as the oil and gas law and other laws that have direct contact with the lives of citizens.“

Kaperoni – Dinar Guru  There are several articles that have been released from the prime minister’s office over the last few weeks stating passing the tripartite budget will put Iraq on the verge of a major reconstruction movement in all sectors.

Nader – Dinar Guru  With it’s approval, the budget now awaits the signature of the President of Iraq after which it will be sent to the Gazette to be enacted into law...

Clare – Dinar Guru  Article: “International Monetary comments on Iraq’s budget and re-warns of inflation in the currency”  Quote: “international monetary concern is due to fears that large government spending will lead to”inflation” in the Iraqi currency, which in turn leads to a spiral of economic deterioration affecting the future of the country“

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru   …we are in a “vital” period since the three-year budget has been passed on Sunday June 11th.  On Tuesday it was announced that the approved budget would [go?] to the president to be ratified. So now we sit and wait. Literally, anything could now happen and is going to happen very quick from this point. In fact, this week could be pivotal.

Kaperoni – Dinar Guru  I want to remind everyone despite the fact that Iraq past a 3-year budget yesterday, Iraq still has a lot of work to do.  Parliament needs to pass several laws to encourage and support investment.

Paulette – Dinar Guru  Finally!  I have waited nearly 14 years to see what just happened…Stage is set.  Bring on the Oil and Gas Law NOW!!  The underlying basis is established by the Tripartite Budget…The arguments and fight should be over…

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  The 2023, 2024, 2025 budget having been very contentious took about 4 days to finish the reading and getting it done…but they were successful...it was about 5 in the wee hours of the morning they finished it and hammered it out.  What they’re going to do now from that point on is they’re looking to proceed with the entitlements that follow the budget which is the oil and gas law.

Clare – Dinar Guru  Article:   “The Iraqi Trade Bank and JPMorgan are discussing the development of banking operations”  Quote “…the directives of Prime Minister Muhammad Shia’a Al-Sudani to advance the country’s economy, and to ensure that the best services are provided to the Iraqi citizen according to the best.” Available methods and means within international standards, which will reflect positively on the Iraqi economy.“

Kaperoni – Dinar Guru  ‘an RV is in the budget.’  That is not how it works. The passing of this three tripartite budget gives Iraq the opportunity now to diversify their economy and begin significant reconstruction.  Only with the success and growth of their economy will the dinar go up in value.

Angel1 – Dinar Guru  This is no game.  This is real life.  There are a lot of people, my friends are there, are excited and encouraged because their economy is exploding.  It is exploding now.  Can you imagine what’s going to happen when that rate reflects the true value?  They can’t wait.

Clare – Dinar Guru  Member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Youssef Al-Kalabi Tweet “Tomorrow the budget will be sent to the President of the Republic for approval”

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  Who’s the authority?  Central bank is the authority to talk about the exchange rate.  The government is the authority to talk about the program, the rollout, the process.  That’s Sudani…

Pimpy – Dinar Guru  Article:  “What does JPMorgan’s willingness to support Iraqi banks mean?”  This is not good…this is like jumping into bed with the devil…What they’re trying to do is force Iraq to use U.S. dollars along with anybody else that deals with the IMF or the World Bank…it doesn’t mean we won’t benefit from it, for those who are invested in the Iraqi dinar, we will.  But I’m thinking more for the Iraqi people.

Clare – Dinar Guru  Question:  “Once they announce the Budget completed, does that give us the HCL? or is that a whole separate thing we need to deal with?”  THE HCL IS IN THE BUDGET...THERE IS AN ARTICLE …THAT STATES THAT.  THE BUDGET WILL BUST EVERYTHING WIDE OPEN…

Kaperoni – Dinar Guru  It appears tonight that Iraq Parliament has voted on the budget for the next 3 years. Excellent news.  This new tripartite budget is critical to Iraq diversifying their economy over the next 3 years.  I believe this is how we will see the dinar rise in value as a result of Iraq’s diversification away from oil and economic growth.
