Dinar Observer Daily

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru    Some good news…Article: “THREE BLOWS TO MALIKI IN ONE NIGHT… HIS CLOSEST ALLY SIGNALS A RETREAT”  It appears that the bloc supporting Maliki is shrinking day by day. We read that the Framework has already begun discussing the alternative to Maliki. It appears that more and more resistance factions are gradually distancing themselves from supporting Maliki and moving to the opposing side…  [Post 2 of 2]

Pimpy – Dinar Guru  People are asking me how come you’re not doing a lot of [talking] on Iraq?  I said, what is there to talk about?  They’re too busy trying to establish a government.  They still haven’t done that.  You think what’s on their mind is the Iraqi exchange rate?  No.  They’re trying to decide who is going to be the prime minister.  They’re trying to decide who’s going to be the president.  All of that kind of stuff has to be worked out first before anything else.  Yes, I’m keeping an eye on what’s going on over there in Iraq, but…until they get their shit together and establish a government, you’re not going to get a whole lot of too much…

Clare – Dinar Guru   Article:  “Exclusive – US State Department:  Nominating Maliki will force us to reassess our relationship with Iraq”  Quote:  “The US State Department confirmed on Wednesday that the United States’ position remains “firm and unwavering” regarding the nomination of State of Law Coalition leader Nouri al-Maliki for the Iraqi premiership, hinting at harsh  diplomatic measures if this option is pursued.“

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  They need to have stable pricing.  What’s that going to be?  That’s going to be a real effective exchange rate with a commercial digital dinar that needs to be supported with real fundamentals.  

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru   Article:  “MP: GOVERNMENT AGREEMENT TO RAISE THE DOLLAR EXCHANGE RATE TO 180,000  DINARS”  Such a high rate (a massive devaluation) is contrary to the work of the CBI.  It would favor the dollar and the money exchangers selling dollars, something the CBI needs to break…to even suggest it tells a story in itself where the Iranian backed Coordination Framework is coming from as far as leading the way to the destruction of Iraq.  We know that al-Sudani will not go along with a devaluation and leaves these matters to the CBI.  

Jeff – Dinar Guru  Right now Iraq is…going 50 directions at the same time.  It’s a very difficult  investment…Nobody right now can gauge this investment accurately.  I don’t care who it is.  I don’t care how sharp of a thinker  they are…The news…can be perceived as very misleading and confusing right now. 

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  Clear evidence of WTO readiness.  The files are complete, negotiations are active still...I  think the timing is impeccable…Iraq now has the foundational requirements covered.  The successes today are real and the next  logical step as, I see it, is exposure to a managed real effective exchange rate that reflects those successes.

Clare – Dinar Guru  Article: “Standard & Poor’s praises the stability of Iraq’s economic indicators” Quote “Standard  & Poor’s (S&P) credit rating agency released its February 2026 report, affirming Iraq’s rating at B-/B with a stable outlook. The  agency stated in its latest assessment that the Iraqi economy is steadily progressing towards greater fiscal sustainability despite  regional challenges.”

Jeff – Dinar Guru   The Trump administration made it very clear they will not allow an Iranian influence in the country of Iraq.  But because bankers drafted the rate change and scheduling dates…they want to keep us in the dark about the timing and completion of the formation of the government so we don’t know perspectively when the rate is going to change.  Those are two different scenarios.  We’ve got to see how that plays out…We’re all in the dark in this together.

Militia Man – Dinar Guru    Iraq’s central bank is independent.   We’re not waiting for WTO ascension.  They can do what they need to.  Alaq and the gatekeepers can have a move in Iraq dinar anytime they choose is prudent…

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru  We see in articles…that the US, under President Trump is not going to backdown, compromise or negotiate and thus allow any outside nation, most importantly Iran, to influence Iraqi politics…if President Trump is going to work with Iraq to mold it into the financial and economic powerhouse, he must have a government in place that he can  work with and will not betray his foreign policy…  [Post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Mountain Goat -Dinar Guru   Nori al-Maliki…time and time again…has not lived up to agreements and promises made to the US.   Instead, he has chosen to work with dark elements behind the scenes of US foreign policy and Iranian influence…we have read many articles already on the Trump dream to “Make Iraq Great Again”…As investors, if we have any chance of seeing the reinstatement of the Iraqi dinar and thus revaluation, if will be under the Trump administration.   [Post 2 of 2]

Samson – Dinar Guru   Article: “US SENATOR : IRAQ HAS MADE REMARKABLE PROGRESS IN DEVELOPMENT PATHS“

Pimpy – Dinar Guru   Once the prime minister has been selected, then they got to form the government.  Once they form the government, then everything is on track.  The last time…it took them over a year just to get a prime minister…This election was last November…3 months now since the election and they have not picked a president, nor have they picked the prime minister yet…What I’m thinking is they haven’t selected a president yet is because they’re not ready to figure out who is going to be the prime minister.  Once you select a president you have to hurry up and select the prime minister.  Right now they’re stalling…I’m waiting for them to make a move.

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  Iraq enters 2026 with political clarity, strong reserves, low inflation and digital readiness, coordinated reforms and trade banking, private sector, digital systems combined with gatekeeper support positions [Iraq] for sustained growth and full participation in the global financial system…So execution phase is underway.  I think the trajectory is clear…They fired the shot.

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru  “IRAQ’S MALIKI STANDOFF: THREE EXITS, NO EASY WAY OUT”   A Framework official told Alhurra that three scenarios are now under discussion to end the deadlock… I believe none of these scenarios will work and are just conversation and not real solutions… There is in FACT only one solution and that is to give al-Sudani yet another term. I believe that in the end he will be nominated and appointed for yet another term.

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  The preparation phase for the real effective exchange rate…I think it’s complete.  The execution of that process is obviously underway.  I don’t think anything I’m talking about is speculation…Bit by bit…they’re bringing confidence to people…We’re coming towards the end.

Samson – Dinar Guru  Article:  “BY 26%, THE COST OF LIVING IN BAGHDAD IS CHEAPER THAN IN ISTANBUL, TURKEY“

Sandy Ingram – Dinar Guru   [Iraq] is sitting on more than $100 billion dollars in reserves and assets along with massive long-term economic ambitions.  Among them is the ambitious development road project… This project alone has the potential to reshape trade routes across the Middle East.  Iraq is also positioned to benefit from a multi-billion dollar tourism sector…The economic upside is enormous.  Stability is the key that unlocks that door.  Iraqi leadership knows that damaging relations with Western financial systems could slow investment, reduce access to global banking networks and complicate trade partnerships…The stakes are high. 

Clare – Dinar Guru   Article:   “Trump comments on the coordinating framework candidate: We have some options”  Quote:  “Days after his blog post, in which he spoke of not cooperating with Iraq if Nouri al-Maliki were chosen as prime minister, US President Donald Trump returned with a new statement…Trump, in response to a question from a Rudaw Network reporter about whether he had a veto on Nouri al-Maliki, said: ‘We are looking at a prime minister, we will see what happens, we have some ideas on the subject, in the end everyone needs the United States.“

Militia Man – Dinar Guru  Gatekeepers are getting exactly what they want, a controlled, credible transition to a more market reflective system…They’re telling us in full force we’re doing these things.  The political noise is…the right hand.  Left hand, pay attention.

Jeff – Dinar Guru    Iraq’s news is very difficult to study.  Most… don’t really have solid information to go on right now.  I know I sure don’t… Everything is in limbo…The political news isn’t credible.  They’re talking in circles.  They’re stating a disagreement on the prime minister is what’s delaying …voting on the president, which I know isn’t true…The most critical to see… is what the US government and military are doing with Iran…The Trump administration made it very clear there will not be any type of Iranian influence within the country of Iraq.  They’re sending an additional naval ship into the region to put more military tension on to Iran…

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru   Articles: “IRAQ HAS ‘HUGE PLAN’ TO TRANSFORM BANKING SECTOR, SAYS CBI GOVERNOR”;  “MASROUR BARZANI PRAISES AL-ALAQ’S MEASURES TO IMPROVE THE BANKING SYSTEM IN IRAQ”  …We all should know that even during the election deadlock and amidst all the ongoing saga associated with it, the independent Central Bank is still moving forward with reforms in the background.

Sandy Ingram – Dinar Guru   Once the development road project is up and running, Iraq will need to adjust its currency in order to benefit from the enormous revenue that will be generated by the DRP.

Pimpy – Dinar Guru  Question: “Do you still think the Iraqi dinar is going to go? …I thought you were the one that  said it wasn’t going to go?”  Yes [I think the dinar is still going to go].  I’ve been saying it for the longest time…I never said that it wasn’t going to happen.  I never said that.

Jeff – Dinar Guru    Press Question to President Trump: “Do you still have a veto on who becomes the Iraqi Prime Minister?”   “We’re looking at a prime minister.  We’re going to see what’s going to happen.  We’ve got some ideas on it.  But in the end, everybody needs the US.  Everybody needs us.”

Mountain Goat – Dinar Guru  The CBI is finally breaking the parallel market and this time ‘for good’. As we all know the “ASYCUDA” system was implemented in full swing recently. This system forces legitimacy of trade transactions. Remember that under the currency auctions merchants could lie and falsify papers of purchasing fake goods in order to get dollars out of the CBI. With ASYCUDA this just tightened the noose even more on the parallel market to the point where these money changes are going out of business. Funds going to Iran are also drying up.

Jeff – Dinar Guru   The news…is suggestive the formation of the new government is going to take [Iraq] into the international world, get them onto the next stage, next phase.  That’s why this government formation is the most important elections they’ve ever had going back to 2003.
