This Saturday I had my normal call to my CBI contact in Iraq and was told they too are waiting for the signal to go ahead with the Project to Delete the Zeros. This is the next step. Everything from the Iraqi side has been cleared but the US Treasury has not yet given their assurance of the reinstatement once the process moves to the next step

The CBI now wants this in writing and a formal document stating the approvals. They are waiting for this to come.  ...we know that what has been accomplished in the de-dollarization process is hard to undo at that point...So, there is no turning back and they must move ahead.

Comment: ...I am starting to think this is all bullcrap…please talk me off the cliff.   MarkZ:   Were you paying attention yesterday morning?   Did you see the article yesterday where they are “OPENLY” talking about changing the rate

 [Reference MarkZ posts 1 & 2, 3-11-24, below]

  …and we know they have formed a committee to educate folks on the repricing because of changing rates. We know its going to happen…it’s the “when” that is still the monkey on our backs….

  [Reference MarkZ posts 1 & 2, 3-11-24, below] 

 If Iraqs rate comes out at .76…Wonder what VND rate will be?  MarkZ:  ...that could mean...dong at .36 - .40 cents…we always thought the VND would be 3/4 of the value of the IQD. And I believe those rates are the worst case scenarios. So nobody panic. I still very much think that we could get up to $4 on the dinar…and closer to $2 on the dong...
