BGG ~ Announcement coming tomorrow…
______________________________________________________________
mike (Dinar Guru) – Article: “The terms of a loan of the International Monetary Fund for Iraq .. prejudice to national sovereignty” When you get down to it…Iraq is a sovereign country, they should make their own decisions without coercion. The problem is, they have no political will to make changes on their own, they have to be led by their nose to get anything done. It’s embarrassing that the IMF and WB have to step in and right the ship, but at this point, Iraq must be used to others coming in and fixing their problems.
______________________________________________________________
BGG (Dinar Guru) – …they are moving forward at great speed – right now… most are justifiably excited right now.
______________________________________________________________
Chattels (Dinar Guru) – Parliament will reconvene Tuesday and completed questioning of the Minister of Defense. Otherwise a very unremarkable agenda for Tuesday.

wmawhite and rcookie (Dinar Guru) – The Kuwaiti Experience…What does Iraq have in common with what Kuwait experienced. We do know that from the summer going into March of the next year that the Kuwait dinar was off the markets…the banks were closed. We do know that exactly 26 days after the end of the war the banks reopened by instituting a new Kuwait dinar at a value of 50 – 55 cents per dinar and the old Kuwait dinar that anyone may have left the country with fleeing the war at 1 – 1. The Kuwaiti experience is instituting a new currency at an old rate and all of the other banking functions that had to be started back up…credit cards, debt cards etc…that is what they [Iraq] are getting ready to do. They have a brotherly neighbor that is a success story that they are mirroring and look where Kuwait ended up…!
______________________________________________________________
ADMINBILL (Dinar Guru) – ANOTHER WEEKEND HAS COME AND…GONE WITH THE HOPE OF THE ELUSIVE RV AND THE RUMORS AND SPECULATION THAT SURROUNDS THE CONCLUSION…NOT HERE YET …TODAY HAS BEEN A VERY STRANGE DAY IN DINARLAND. A DAY THAT HAS BEEN REFERRED TO AS “DEAD QUIET” BY SEVERAL CONTACTS. UNDERSTAND THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN INCREDIBLY COMPLEX AND DIFFICULT PROCESS TO COMPLETE…I KNOW MANY…ARE HOPING AND PRAYING FOR THE COMPLETION OF THIS EVENT. DON’T STOP. BE AT PEACE.
______________________________________________________________
rcookie (Dinar Guru) – Article “Invalid: donor funds will move Iraq development and attract foreign investors” Quote: “Prime Minister’s Adviser for Economic Affairs Mohammad Saleh appearance, the donors ‘ Conference funds represent “a step” to move the development in Iraq and bring stability to post “ISIS”, noting that it also represents an opportunity to attract foreign investors.” THERES THAT STABILITY WORD AGAIN…AND DIRECTLY ADDRESSES DOUBTERS WHO THEORIZE THAT IF THEY KEEP GETTING LOANS..WILL SLOW DOWN DEVELOPMENT AND REFORM PROCESS…

______________________________________________________________
rcookie (Dinar Guru) – 1ST WE REPORTED LICENSES BEING ISSUED…AND NOW… “Iraq Stock Exchange is preparing to launch investment funds and expert prepared “solution” to the problems of funding and unemployment” BOULAYAAAAAAH! Article quote: “IRAQI STOCK EXCHANGE ANNOUNCED TODAY THE LAUNCH OF INVESTMENT FUNDS AND ADD NEW FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS FOR TRADING IN COLLABORATION WITH THE CENTRAL BANK AND GIVE THE FUND A PRIORITY AWAY FROM THE COMMITTEE ISSUING LICENSING FROM JULY 17TH IN THE SECURITIES COMMISSION DEPARTMENT OF REGISTRATION OF COMPANIES TO ATTRACT NATIONAL AND FOREIGN SAVINGS & INVESTMENT IN SECURITIES AND ADD TOOLS TO FINANCIAL TRADING…” FOLKS THEY ARE SOOOOOOO READY!
______________________________________________________________
Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Iraq Stock Exchange is preparing to launch investment funds and expert prepared “solution” to the problems of funding and unemployment” They been talking about this for a couple of years. ISX transactions are in Dinars so until the CBI changes its monetary policy, I do not think it can happen. We shall see. A good thing for sure.

ADMINBILL (Dinar Guru) – NO ACTIVE RV AS YET…SOURCES POSITIVE. MUCH IS HAPPENING.
______________________________________________________________
wmawhite (Dinar Guru) – [Executive order 13303…what is it and what does it mean for us dinar holders?] What is an Executive Order? An Executive Order enables the president to by pass or step around the normal appropriation process the way it is laid out in the constitution and to do things and to use his executive power to carry out certain events and in this case directing funding, primarily humanitarian funding and assistance, through all of the different Federal agencies toward the country of Iraq. And it says because of the emergency and in the last couple of years it’s been humanitarian emergencies… Each time it has been signed, I read it over and over and I can’t see anything in there that pertains to whether or not…being a sovereign country having it’s own currency…as to whether or not it will change it’s value or not change it’s value. I don’t see any impact on it one way or the other. So what is the rumor…has it been signed or not been signed…I don’t see a connection between the two.

wmawhite (Dinar Guru) – [Among the factors encouraging foreign investment, how important is the current IQD low exchange rate?] the low value is always good for a country to encourage investment…in a limited capacity…however…with Iraq when the flood gates open, Iraq will need to leverage its currency with a greater value.

Bondlady (Dinar Guru) – Article quote: “Baghdad She said the oil marketing company Iraq (SOMO) said in a statement on Thursday that Iraq pumped 4.632 million barrels per day of crude oil in the month of July, recording an increase of 4.559 million barrels per day in the month of June.” the most oil pumped per day during saddams time at the end was 3 millon bpd. this is just awesome and they’re pumping more an more every day. even tho low oil prices this is great for them and it will only get better now as they get there crap together economically more an more every day…love it .

tlm724 (Dinar Guru) – Article quote: “Parliamentary Finance Committee unveiled on Thursday a new law to regulate the work of government banks, is done within the Commission. As it pointed out that this law will cancel all previous laws on banks” …now thats hot! we have waited soooooooooo long for these banking laws and here they are…
