"RV UPDATE" BY SANDY INGRAM, 10 APRIL

 Zimbabwe has a new structured currency...People will have 21 days from Friday April 5th to exchange their currency for the new structured currency...[We] were always concerned Iraq would use this same process to eliminate the millions of Iraqi dinar banknotes outside the country.  If this were Iraq and not Zimbabwe, you would only have 21 days to exchange the currency within Iraq.

  Iraq's prime minister will be in Washington, DC in less than 8 days to meet with President Biden.

 The real effective exchange rate (REER) is a measure of the relative strength of a country's currency in relation to an index or basket of other major currencies.  The REER is used to judge whether the country's currency is undervalued or overvalued or, ideally, fairly valued... 

Nominal Effective Exchange Rate (NEER)...It is an index of the weighted average of bilateral exchange rates of home currency with respect to a basket of currencies of trading partners.  An increase in NEER indicates an appreciation of the local currency against the weighted basket of currencies of its trading partners.

 Iraq's top five export trading partners are India, with $38.8 billion, China with $34 billion, the United States with $10.3 billion, South Korea with 8.21 billion, and Greece with $6.27 billion.    Based on Iraq's export partners the Iraqi dinar definitely could be worth more.  However everything is speculative until the US and Iraq give the green light to float, revalue, reinstate or increase the value of the Iraqi dinar...This could happen overnight but it is unlikely.

  Question: "How long do you think we'll have to exchange IYO? I don't know.  Normally they give you anywhere from 6 months to about a year.

  When you hold up the new lower notes you will not be able to see all the safety features, not even with a black light.   This currency is so far advanced you cannot counterfeit it because you don't even know what's in it. 

 Question "I lost my receipt, is that going to be a problem?" 

  ;Yeah that's a problem when you get  audited but that's the only time it's a problem.  When you get audited they're gong to ask you when did you buy that and if you've held your dinar for one year and have proof of a receipt you'll probably be in the 20% but if you have held it for one year and you don't have a receipt you'll probably be in the 40%.  I'd rather pay $200,000 on a million than $400,000.   You lost your receipt?   Call the person you bought it from to see if their records have it...Did you write a check?  Got to your bank and ask...please look  up my check statement on this date on this month on that year.

"RV UPDATE" BY MILITIAMAN, 10 APRIL

 Militia Man

  Iraq is getting ready to go international and they are going to become a powerhouse in the world because they have a lot of value.  They have a a lot of assets.  They have natural resources to the extent...they're 1st, 2nd, 5th, 10th in the world of having the biggest deposits in the world.  They also have one of the youngest populations and growing populations... The WTO and the World Customs Organization are probably chomping at the bit waiting for Iraq to do what? Give themselves a Real Effective Exchange Rate and to move forward..

Al-Sudani is coming to America and hopefully coming home that he has accomplished everything in Iraq's favor as a whole.   So give or take, whether it's before he comes home or after he comes home Iraq is going to be whole.   That means everything is in Iraq's cards...they have the ability to be sovereign again.  That's what we're waiting for.
