First they are telling us that Abadi has a third set of reforms coming soon. This new set of reforms this time is dealing with cleaning up parliamentary procedure.<\/strong>\u00a0 We pray for the process of the currency reform, the full implementation of the Iraqi economy to full international status and the bringing of prosperity and wealth to its people.\u00a0\u00a0 [post 2 of 2]

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) –<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0Article:\u00a0 “PARLIAMENT PASSES THE OPTIMISTIC “GENERAL AMNESTY” AND THE FEDERAL COURT OVER THE NEW CHAPTER<\/em>”\u00a0\u00a0 I want to begin today\u2019s news with an update on the needed laws to initiate the mandates prior to any RV. \u00a0 I have explained to you many times already many of the needed laws for Iraq to satisfy its obligations under the mandates set forth for the phase of the Abadi government thus allow the currency reform to take place.\u00a0In other words once these mandates are completed they will have nearly a \u201cfully\u201d implemented constitution thus a full government. This will pave the way for currency reform.<\/strong>\u00a0 What is more amazing is that they are now coming right out and telling us what these laws are, their urgency and priority in parliament AND all this in ONE article.\u00a0\u00a0[post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

wmawhite (Dinar Guru) –<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0The stuff the IMF called for to be completed by the end of February 2016 is already done…implemented, done, done.<\/strong>\u00a0 This is what we are looking for today: “remove remaining exchange restrictions and multiple currency practice (MCP) with a view to eliminating exchange rate distortions<\/em>.”\u00a0\u00a0The IMF wrote that announcement in November 2015, and released it in December 2015…so the IMF did not tell us it was done…we know they are done because it has been announced by the GOI.<\/strong>\u00a0 We are at a disadvantage because we do not know exactly what to look for when looking for exchange rate restrictions, for example.\u00a0 [I’ve been in this for awhile now and I know we are closer today then ever so…I just pray it will be soon<\/em>.]\u00a0\u00a0I agree… and…the IMF has told us a lot and specifically what the government is doing at this moment…the problem is that we do not know how to identify those to items.<\/strong>

Breitling (Dinar Guru) –<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>People don\u2019t realize this but it\u2019s getting harder and harder to get different [Iraqi dinar] denominations in the United States\u2026<\/span><\/strong>that\u2019s superbly good news for us.\u00a0 A.\u00a0 People aren\u2019t willing to give it up.\u00a0 2.\u00a0 There\u2019s just not as much out there\u2026because what are they doing?\u00a0 They\u2019re reducing the note count.\u00a0 You\u2019re just looking at a natural market reaction\u2026supply and demand.<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0 And the venues that supply the dinar for us do not have what they used to have so that\u2019s a beautiful thing all in and of itself.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>[What is really the hold up<\/em>?]\u00a0\u00a0The “hold up” hasn’t changed…it’s the same thing. The CBI has to be able to maintain control of the exchange rate, and the same factors will always come into play<\/strong>. They are doing it right, and I respect them for taking their time (even though I’d like to have been DONE with this discussion years ago!).

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>While the situation is tenuous, to say the least, it is my firm view that we are almost at the point of a disorderly exit from the fixed rate.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0Once that happens there will be a temporary fluctuation, most likely down initially, in the value of the dinar, followed by a rise commensurate with the underlying value of the currency<\/span><\/strong>. I am currently prepared to buy dinar. \u00a0I will do so at the advent of this change, whenever it occurs, irrespective of the price of oil or the ISIS situation.\u00a0 I was a commodities trader in the middle to late 1980s and I learned at that time that the wise person buys at the bottom and sells at the top. \u00a0When all others panic and are ready to bail out, I will do just the opposite. \u00a0Put another way, it is always darkest just before the dawn.\u00a0\u00a0This is not a recommendation on my part by any means.<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0My decisions are mine alone. \u00a0Others will do what they will based on their own analysis and financial conditions.<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0All I am saying in this post is that, in my view, this sucker is about to move. \u00a0It is very dark right now. \u00a0So be it. \u00a0Having said that, there are people all over the world waiting for the dawn.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0[post 3 of 3]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>Having said that, however, I don’t believe that the IMF is a whole lot more savvy than the CBI in terms of control of the situation. \u00a0They have as much as admitted that the low oil prices and the ISIS situation have exacerbated…the situation to the point of crisis. \u00a0Still, they have also clearly laid out a plan which…is forthright and direct…\u00a0\u00a0Therefore, it is my opinion that we will see a disorderly exit from the fixed rate regime to a floating rate regime in the near future.<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0It will not be a surprise to me to see the initial reaction from the market to be a drop in the value of the dinar.\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0This drop will be precipitated by a lack of confidence rather than the fundamentals, in my view. \u00a0However, within a short time it will become evident that the dinar is well backed by reserves and the process will reverse itself.\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0[post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>What is clear to me from this article is that there will be a disorderly exit from the fixed exchange rate.<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0The CBI has let this go too far, even to the point of reducing its reserves by nearly 30% in an attempt to control the market rate at or near the official rate.\u00a0 The reason that the IMF has been allowed to enter into this situation is due to the fact that the CBI (without Shabibi) has no idea how to solve the problem, especially with the lower price of oil and the ISIS crisis sucking up their funds.\u00a0\u00a0The arrival of the IMF as trustee over the CBI is a clear indication to me that my prior statement is fact. \u00a0The CBI is at a loss to know what to do.<\/strong>\u00a0 However, the IMF has a clear vested interest in the success of this process of democratization in Iraq. \u00a0I believe that the die is cast in that sense: \u00a0they will not let Iraq fail.\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0 [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

For whatever the reasons, those were not accomplished. We all know parliament, Maliki, tribal, Iran, etc. all participated in holding progress back.\u00a0That being said, it’s different this time. This time we have the Prime Minister on board, the CBI Governor, the Finance Minister, and the IMF and WB.<\/span>\u00a0Sure it is not 100% but to me (and maybe I am naive) but I see the “potential meter” rising almost daily.
