BREAKING NEWS: What an AC 130 is Capable Of - IQD Exchange Rate BY SANDY INGRAM

"RV UPDATE" BY MNT GOAT, 24 NOV

 Mnt Goat 

  So, how long will us investors in the IQD have to wait before Iraq is allowed to liberate its own currency

Why do I say “now is the time”?  We know they are completely out of Chapter VII sanctions since December 2022, and so why not treat them as such? 

We know they want the Iraq funds (nearly USD 115+ billion) released from the NY banks and put in their custody to do what they want with it... We know they have plans for yet more Sovereign Funds to invest their reserves. We know they are making agreements now for “currency swaps” and will no longer be using any US dollars in Iraq as of January 1st 2024

We know since January they have undertaken a massive “de-dollarization” program and told it should have taken 6 years but they decided to do it in 1 year (2023)Why such a hurry

  We know the value of the IQD right now without any further economic development does exceed even pre-1991 era ($3.22) but still at 1/6 of a penny?   We know Iraq now pumps 2/3 more oil than in pre-1991 era.  We know Iraq also has announced 132+ tons of GOLD reserves. We know they are pushing this year alone, more than any other year since 2005, for the passing of Oil and Gas law. Why?

We know for a FACT that it is the U.S. through the Treasury Dept. direction that will NOT give sign-off to allow the reinstatementWhy?  Finally, we know, the CBI has told us that January is the most opportune time to reinstate for accounting purposes, since it begins their new FISCAL year. Just be patient, the reinstatement is coming and I firmly believe with what we now are 99% sure it is going to be a January 2024 event. WOW! Finally!!!

Read The Latest Central Bank Circular: Has Dollar Trading Become Available To Everyone?

Economy |Baghdad today – Baghdad     The Central Bank of Iraq’s statement yesterday, Wednesday, that the dollar exchange rates are subject to “the forces of supply and demand in the market,” raised several questions from economists about the reasons that prompted the governor to issue a decision that only recently considered it an “economic crime” that would put the accused in prison under penalty of the Penal Code. Effective against speculators in exchange rates.

What economists have pointed out is that all the measures taken in cooperation with the American side for nearly two years have been put in vain by the return of the currency auction in a “parallel” manner, which is considered an implicit acknowledgment of the existence of a “parallel market” that imposes itself on the Iraqi economy and controls it, and there is no point in preventing it.

The Central Bank of Iraq had issued circulars to the licensed banks regarding their share and the sale of the dollar to citizens at the official price yesterday, Wednesday, as it confirmed that its circulars, No. 463/3/9, on 8/17/2023, paragraph (first), thereof, stated that the official price for selling the cash dollar to... The final beneficiary, the citizen, who amounts to (1,320) dinars/dollars, will go to the cash share received by the banks and exchange companies and mediate in buying and selling foreign currency directly from this bank/buying and selling window of foreign currency. It must be adhered to and sold according to the instructions communicated to you. Otherwise, the price is subject to the forces of supply. And market demand.

Economist Nabil Al-Marsoumi commented on this step, sarcastically,  “The militarization of the dollar has ended, after the Central Bank recognized the existence of the parallel market!!!”

 On the other hand, economic experts described the Central Bank’s action by saying that the bank was finally convinced of the futility of preventing parallel markets, and allows the exchange of the dollar currency according to supply and demand,” considering that “this step is good and will enhance the stability of the markets.”

The matter led to the raising of several questions by observers about how the Central Bank will ensure that the dollar does not go to prohibited channels, and

whether this means that the Central Bank will retreat from the step of preventing the delivery of dollar remittances to citizens, and

whether dollar circulation will become available and not be pursued and anyone can Banking can sell the dollar to anyone willing to buy the dollar, as well as

whether it will enhance the stability of the markets, especially since cash from the dollar will become available, which may lead to a balance of supply and demand and thus a decline in prices.

Saleh: Explained the Goad of the CBI regarding selling dollar outside the platform according to supply and demand, 24 Nov

Saleh: Explained the Goad of the CBI regarding selling dollar outside the platform according to supply and demand, 24 Nov

   Today, Thursday, the financial advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Saleh, explained the goal of the Central Bank’s circular today regarding trading the dollar outside the platform according to supply and demand, indicating that it will provide high flexibility in supply that contributes to market stability.  Saleh told the official agency,

 “Liberating the operations of buying and selling foreign exchange is not an alternative to the policy of defending price stability and the government’s plan to interfere in the stability of the general level of prices.”

Saleh added,   “Families, natural and legal persons in Iraq are hoarding amounts of cash in foreign currency and outside the banking system amounting to billions of dollars and are subject to two phenomena.

The first is the difficulty of disposing of their circulation outside the laws of supply and demand that create the currently free exchange rate due to deterrent legal controls and

the second is the contraction of a large monetary supply from Liquid foreign currency, which has stopped moving in the form of a cash hoarding that is immobile and outside the circle of supply.”  He continued,

"This exacerbates exchange rate fluctuations under the influence of (a liquidity trap in foreign currency resulting from an expected positive wealth due to the rise in the value of foreign exchange against the local currency)."  Saleh added,

 “Therefore, liberalizing the climate of dealing in foreign currency and giving it a white character will provide high flexibility in supply that contributes to reducing noise in the secondary exchange market,

which provides a flexible supply of foreign exchange that leads to market stability, supported by a government policy that provides commodity supply through the official price.” “For highly stable exchange and financed at an exchange rate of 1,320 dinars per dollar.”

MZ: “ The ruble is gaining and is the world’s best performing currency versus the US dollar in recent weeks amid rate hikes and energy costs”The ruble keeps gaining and the dollar is showing serious weakness.

MZ: Yesterday Moody’s downgraded some major banks. Not because of the banks but because our government and the FDIC do not have the strength to “prop up” our “to large to fail” banks.So if there is a issue…..banks are screwed.
