Adam Montana – I mentioned 2 major things last week: Parliament and Price of Oil.  Parliament is stalled… no news out of them this week.  But it won’t stay that way for long – things will pick up speed again, just as sure as the sun will go down and come up again. So forget about Parliament for a minute, and let’s talk about Oil.  Crude has crashed over the past couple months, and I’m not going to bore you with  a long analysis…I’m just going to give you my opinion – as of this morning, I’m finally starting to feel like we may have reached the bottom. Once we’ve reached the bottom, prices should stabilize and that’s when I believe the CBI will loosen it’s grip on Parliament (yes, I believe that the CBI has MAJOR strings to pull in the GOI), and once we’re looking at a consistent uptick in oil… THAT is what we are looking for. It could trigger the HCL out of sheer necessity, and then we’re in business. Of course, I could be wrong on this “bottom”.   [post 2 of 2]

Adam Montana – To be completely frank on the situation, the IQD isn’t nearly as complicated as a lot of people make it out to be… but in some ways, it’s much MORE complicated.  Here’s how it is simple: The CBI has the final say in the exchange rate of the Dinar. PERIOD! The IMF doesn’t control the rate, Maliki has no control over it…  When the CBI says “The new rate is X”, that’s it. No approvals from Obama, no vetoes from Putin, nothing will change it. When the CBI pushes the button, it’s DONE.  Now here’s how it’s complicated: The IQD isn’t currently traded on FOREX. It’s not a currency you can go to Wells Fargo or Chase and exchange at the counter. It’s not at the Currency Exchange booths in airports, and you can’t currently use it to buy bread at your local store.  But the IQD does have an impact on the bigger global picture. The world, at least the intelligent and aware portion, is well aware that the IQD is in existence and has the potential to create BIG waves in the global economy!   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Millionday – THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE REIGNS — THIS IS HANDS OFF AND JUST MONITORING — NOT DOING ANYTHING BUT MONITORING — THE HELP TO GET TO THIS POINT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS AND NOW THEY HAVE FORMALLY ANNOUNCED THAT IRAQ IS READY TO IMPLEMENT AND THE IMF WILL MONITOR…THIS IS HUGE.  IRAQ IS THEIR OWN COUNTRY AND CBI IS INDEPENDENT.

Kaperoni – There is no revalue or overnight event…but a gradual appreciation based on the economic growth, GDP of Iraq. The process to raise the value is based on economic principals, not some arbitrary number. Most importantly, the dinar is directly related to the creation of a market economy.  So as the world comes to Iraq to invest (once the laws are in place), it will create an economic boom of sorts, and as a result of billions of dollars will begin flowing through the CBI’s capital account to participate in investment projects, the result will create inflationary pressure in the country. When the CBI moves to Article VIII (which we expect this year to happen at or about the same time as the passing of the laws), and begins to float the dinar, the dinar will rise in value gradually to counter that inflationary pressure created from the influx of investors…it is absolutely necessary that the dinar appreciate in value as part of the process.

Millionday – Article quote:  “IMF staff will work closely with the authorities to monitor progress in the implementation of their economic program.”   THE IMF STAFF WILL WORK CLOSELY WITH THE AUTHORITIES TO MONITOR PROGRESS IN IRAQ`S IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ECONOMIC PROGRAM — THEY ARE READY TO IMPLEMENT ACCORDING TO THE IMF LAST WEEK.  THE ECONOMIC REFORM INCLUDES ALL ECONOMICS — BANKS — MONETARY — FUNDING — MARKET — ETC.   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

wmawhite – [you once stated that IMF says before the 1st half of 2016 we will see economic change…what do you feel is their deadline…]   I do not believe there is a deadline for the public to know about. IMO, there are timelines for the CBI/GOI to meet. In fact, the IMF has told us so. Either way, the IMF has their expectations.

Blondie – Iraq is an very rich country (Dr. Shabbibi said so in a CNBC interview years ago), but they have a liquidity problem. Making a guestimate based on publicly published findings over the last 5 years or so, companies have reported “successful discoveries” of previously unknown oilfields to the tune of (guesstimating here) maybe 15 billion barrels (and there’s a good possibility that there’s even more still to be found). At $30/bbl., that’s in the neighborhood of $460B. Doing the multiplication, you get 542.8 Trillion dinars. This is in no way “scientific” and is only an educated guess, and it doesn’t include previously known and tapped oilfields that have been producing for years (where the “Oil For Food” program came from). The above is just oil, not natural gas, gold, agriculture etc. Of course, Iraq knows this. This may be why everybody is lending them money and wants to be their BFF. The “hand-holding” they’re getting from world agencies is to help ensure they do it smoothly and correctly. But do your own research and due diligence — all of this information is publicly available.

rcookie – Article quote:  “Iraq Osama Mahmoud importance of unifying laws and legislation governing economic action, pointing to the importance of linking the Iraqi dinar to the global economy and thus achieve a monetary value to him in front of the world’s currencies…”   THAT REPORT AND STATEMENTS ARE FROM…OSAMA MEHMOUD…THAT IS IRAQS LEAD STOCK MARKET ECONOMIST/STRATEGIST… WHO HAS BEEN VERY VOCAL & POSITIVE IN LAST COUPLE MONTHS…

Frank26 – [Is the main CBI branch in Baghdad distributing LD’s?]   no…no one is distributing LD’s right now.  [Rumors say that OPEC is stepping in to raise oil prices, how will that affect Iraq’s RV rate?]    we hope it would fuel it…in fact OPEC is in cahoots with the US and we are making these arrangements to raise the price of oil now…IMO  [Do you think there is a chance that all the steps are done and they are keeping it quiet?]   no…no…there are things that need to be done and they are doing them.
______________________________________________________________

Breitling – …The IMF is not in the position right now, nor do they want to mess with Iraq’s economy or currency.  Here’s the math….I’ve got to go back through a lot of papers and research about how I got to that number but if the IMF took control tonight and tried to get their money/investment back they could actually raise the value of the dinar like .27 cents and that’s it.  That’s all the management rights they have from the loans that they gave.  That’s a default.  Iraq is paying the interest on their loans and they can get refinanced if they have to.  So there is no handling by the IMF right now.  Iraq is not doing anything bad.  If the oil market goes down and they have to adjust their budget and they have to change their payments with the IMF…guess what?  The IMF is more than happy to do that.   They do that all the time…they don’t care…they always adjust.  So the IMF would only get involved in Iraq if they default and stop paying and if the IMF did take control they could revalue the currency up to around .26 to .27 cents.  Very easy but they are not in that process right now.

SteveI – Article: “Association of Iraqi banks sign a partnership agreement and exchange of experiences with the Union of Arab Banks”  Quote:   “…this will be the biggest opportunity in order to open the door for investment in Iraq’s banking sector.”   Things are really starting to line up and this is yet another great article.  I love where all of this is headed.

Aggiedad77 – …just what its the value of Iraq’s resources…   I seriously think they may not know…as for the oil, I have said for a number of years, their seismic information is or has been very old and outdated…unless they have paid for new surveys I doubt there have been any updates…and it’s my opinion that they have hardly scratched the surface to know what their true reserves might be…their precious metals and minerals are largely untapped and unknown as well…true value…who knows.
______________________________________________________________

Breitling – Does the IMF control the situation in Iraq with their currency because of the loan they gave out?  So I started doing my research to look at any article that came out…Come to find out there is none.  There is nothing out there that says anything…That’s why we go by the numbers.  What the IMF can do and the way they’re structured…  The IMF gives out loans to emerging economies or economies that are in emergency.  Let’s say Iraq’s plan is to get to a buck (that’s true by the way, their plan is to get to $1.17) well the IMF because of the management rights they have because of the loans…if they needed to add value to that currency to get their loan back it’s only a small percentage like 26-27% and even more any country they get involved with it’s almost the same formula they use with every country… [Post 1 of 2 stay tuned for the rest of the IMF and Iraq story…]

Frank26 – The IMF is working with Dr. Shabibi…the IMF is working with the CBI.  …from the IMF…”The Government Will Gradually Remove Remaining Exchange Restrictions and Multiple Currency Practices with a View to Eliminate Rate Distortion”…come on man…how much clearer can that be...the government will gradually remove remaining exchange restrictions…those things are preventing us from moving from a program rate to an international rate…

SteveI – [there sure has been some very telling articles about what Iraq is doing and how they are doing it to join the globe…along with how they will back their currency…its as if they are driving the field for a touchdown and they are now on the 10 yard line…lets do this Iraq.]   Great analogy, as long as there is no fumble or interception on the final few plays.  The finish line is near!

Backdoc – ABOUT 3 OR 4 DAYS AGO, IRAN SAID THEY WOULD NOT LAUNCH OR RE-ENTER THE WORLD WITHOUT IRAQ BECAUSE IT WOULD CAUSE A TRADE IMBALANCE! THIS MEANS THEY ARE ADHERING TO “THE DEAL”.  WE SEE IRAN STATE THAT IN A WEEK OR TWO THEY WOULD BEGIN TO RE-ENTER THE WORLD SLOWLY!  ISN’T IT INTERESTING THAT 2 WEEKS FROM TODAY [MONDAY 1-25-16]  IS THE 8TH?  ONCE THEY START, THEY SAID IT WOULD TAKE A LITTLE LESS THAN A MONTH!   ​IF IRAN AND IRAQ BOTH LAUNCH WITH OTHER SIGNIFICANT CURRENCIES LIKE THE DONG AND RUPIAH (WHICH THEY WILL), THEY WOULD BE IN COMPLIANCE FOR WTO INDUCTION IN JUNE!  [post 2 of 2]

Iraqi Dinar Currency to be Powerful to Enter in the Global Currency Markets

Osama Mehmoud, the global stock representative in Iraq stressed about the importance of integrative laws and economic action of law making. He also pointed out that linking the Iraqi dinar currency to the global economy has its own importance. The Iraqi currency should achieve its value against the global currencies. It would allow in providing more power to the economic process in the country. He further added in his press interview that current economic condition in Iraq needs more care. He pointed out that most of the laws related to the Iraqi economy are still need to get regulations for the economic management in the economic sector, according to the formula. The process in trade and economy are following an open economy as it is called market economy.

He further added that it would improve the economic management that would produce an uncertain economy. There are many industrialized nations depending on the open market that implemented the processes of production and the theory of import and export. The commercial exchange process between a numbers of companies should adopt a unified economic system. He gave an example of Iraqi economic reality that is continuously depending on letters of guarantee issued to the traders to manage the operations of import of goods. It is showing the limitations to the Iraqi verbal disapproval within the banks. It is also stopping to spread the Iraqi dinar currency into the international markets. As a result, the Iraqi dinar value decreased and unable to trade outside the Iraq. He stressed that importance of presenting the Iraqi dinar currency in the global currency markets.
