"RV UPDATE" BY CLARE, 20 JUNE

Clare

Article: "Iraq is preparing to establish a project that will change the oil map.. Will it affect energy producers?" Quote: "Iraq's budget for the current year 2024 allocated an amount of up to 4.9 billion dollars to establish a pipeline extending from Basra in the far south of Iraq on the waters of the Gulf, to the city of Haditha, located in the far west of Iraq within the Anbar Governorate"

Article: "The European Union mission expresses its readiness to cooperate with the Iraqi banking sector”

Article: "Kuwait connects its “Fiber” network to Iraq" Quote: "Iraq will be a major corridor for passing the network, not only in the Gulf. But for the countries of East Asia, it will be synonymous with the Egyptian corridor...Iraq has become the focus of attention of countries and major international companies due to the incidents that took place in the Red Sea and the fear of the cessation of communications through this corridor."

IN 2023 THERE WAS AN APPEAL ON THE ACTUAL BUDGET... BUT WAS RULED OUT THROUGH THE COURTS. THE TRIPARTE BUDGET WAS LEGALLY PASSED, SENT TO THE PRES. WHO SIGNED IT AND WAS PUBLISHED IN THE GAZETTE.

Today's Article Quote: "I do not think there will be an appeal, and even if there is an appeal, the budget will be spent, because it was voted on and its issue was decided legally." THERE IS NO APPEAL ON THE BUDGET SCHEDULES THAT WERE JUST PASSED BY PARLIAMENT AND IT WAS NOT NECESSARY TO BE SIGNED BY PRES. BECAUSE THE BUDGET WAS ALREADY PASSED...THE MOJ HAS IT NOW AND WILL PUBLISH WHEN READY.

Article: "Iraq is preparing to establish a project that will change the oil map.. Will it affect energy producers?" Quote: "Included the project of this new pipeline with an estimated amount of 6.5 billion dinars or $4.9 billion." Think about what they just said, 6.5 billion Iraqi dinar equates to $4.9 billion...It is like saying the dinar is worth 1.32 to $0.76...That to me will be considered a REER.

All we're looking for now, to some degree, is when are they going show these amendments to be law. We heard different things about the president having to sign, not sign, we have 15 days time frames and people are debating on when that time frame starts - was it June 3rd or was it the day he received it? Do we know the exact day he received it? I don't. But we know our time is short...Once the amendments are passed into law, we'd like to think that prior to that they're going to expose the new real effective exchange rate and probably mention they've done the project to delete the zeros which get you the nominal effective exchange rate.

----

If they have a real effective exchange rate like al-Sudani said, that the dinar is going to be stronger than the dollar, the parallel market goes away...Obviously the stronger the currency is the cheaper it is for Iraq to do what they need to do. It's a no-brainer. It's that simple.

The black market is going to exist if the United States dollar is less than the Iraqi dinar...There's not much demand for the dollar now...They've got it under control. Is it showtime? I sure hope so.

I don't care if you've been in this for 20 years. What we're seeing now is completely different. It's a progression. Some people don't like the progression. They just want it to be over and done. Welcome to the club.

----

You kind of need the IMF article VIII compliance and that's what we're waiting for which is a real effective exchange rate. I think these guys are about ready to expose that. I think al-Sudani...Alaq from the Central Bank of Iraq all of them have this in their eyes to see this come to fruition and very quickly...

Anybody going with Sudani is going against the mafias and going against those that are going to have their dollar auctions dry up.

Anybody going with Sudani is going against the mafias and going against those that are going to have their dollar auctions dry up.
They're going to have lots of different little things happen to them that are going to be painful. Anybody that's holding the dollar when they change the exchange rate...those exchange companies, 197 banks that got tagged by the central bank...
they're going to have a painful experience because if you're no...FOR READ MORE:https://dinarevaluation.blogspot.com/2024/06/rv-update-by-militiaman-10-june.html

Sudanese adviser reassures Iraqis: No cash problems

Baghdad – Mil

Prime Minister’s Advisor Madhar Mohammed Saleh confirmed on Monday that Iraq has ranked a distinguished position with international groups that follow the best banking compliance systems, making it safe from any international financial risks, denying the existence of cash problems.

Saleh said, according to the official agency, and followed by “Mil, that “the mechanisms of cash issuance are one of the exclusive competencies of the Central Bank of Iraq because it is the issuing bank based on its Law No. 56 of 2004,” noting that “what is published here and there about problems in cash liquidity is far from the firm institutional basis of the monetary authority in Iraq, which is one of the most important authorities concerned with the issues of availability of cash and the stability of the payment system, which adds the sustainability of the stability of transactions in the national economy.”

He added, “Managing cash, building the cash foundation and controlling the country’s liquidity levels is subject to the principle of a long-term scheme consistent with the achievement of the operational objectives of monetary policy in order to achieve the intermediate goals of stability, sustainable economic growth and the determination of long-term cash flows.”

Saleh indicated that “Iraq has occupied a distinguished rank among the international financial groups that follow the best international banking compliance systems, which makes our country safe from any international financial risks,” pointing out that “Iraq is an essential pillar in regional and international financial cooperation institutions in the scope of combating money laundering, crime and terrorism funds.”

He pointed out that “Iraq recently received a clear positive praise in its strong anti-money laundering policies at the Financial Action Organization conference for the Middle East and North Africa region held in the Kingdom of Bahrain, a certificate from the international financial community confirming the solidity of the financial and banking system in Iraq with the principles of compliance and the integrity of financial and banking operations.”

"QFS CONVERSATION" WITH GOLDILOCKS, 19 JUNE

GOLDILOCKS

Putin visits Vietnam. Why? “The main issues relate to shoring up economic and commercial ties, including arms sales.”

Putin and Vietnam's leaders were said to have been working on an agreement regarding ruble-dong currency transactions through the banking system. This meeting is expected to enable payment for goods and services.

Currently, Vietnam is expanding the value of its currency through the expansion of its elderly population through healthcare, commercial trade, and military arms expansion.

Proper military spending over GDP stabilizes and promotes currency values of a country. Why? Money spent on the military ends up in the private sector as payment for goods and services the military requires.

Each of these are indicators of a growing economy that justifies a higher value through demand on their currency inside a Market Economy. Vision Times Education CFR Nature

Nervous about the market? Here’s one thing you could do if shares start sinking fast

Jack Janasiewicz: The bottom line … is that there’s a disinflationary impulse coming. I think [Fed Chair Jerome] Powell was right to sort of look at [hotter-than-expected] January, February, March inflation data as maybe a little bit of an anomaly or a pause but not a reversal of that trend that’s going to continue to head to that 2% target.

So, again, heading in the right direction, it may be slower than people would like. But we’re going to 2%.

And then the other thing I would point to as well — the labor side of their mandate is becoming a little more focused. [The Fed] is one of the only central banks that has the dual mandate with price stability and full employment. It feels like the price stability side is coming into better focus.

As the economy slows a little bit here, and you start to see the unemployment rate tick a little bit higher … the Fed [could start] to focus on making sure that the unemployment rate doesn’t start to rise.

That could be the trigger for rate cuts. So we’re not ruling out rate cuts by September. We could easily have a cut. The data will tell us that, but I think the big takeaway for us is [inflation] going in the right direction. CNN
