Activity transactions on the (FITR) platform"

Iraq is now showing transaction activities on the FITR platform. FITR are Exchange Traded Funds that come under the category of cross currency swaps. 

Currency ETFs are exchange-traded funds that track the comparative value of a currency. These investment mechanisms allow people like you and me to gain exposure to the forex market. 

"Cross-currency swaps are commonly used for fixed income investments where the cash flows are known with a high degree of certainty. Hedging currency risk with a cross-currency swap effectively creates a synthetic local currency denominated bond by converting the bond’s foreign currency denominated cash flows or risk into a stream of local currency payments. Cross currency swap hedging strategies can be tailored for either active strategies or passive buy-and-hold fixed income strategies."

Here is how the above quotation works. The Exchange Stabilization Fund (ESF) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury can purchase or sell foreign currencies. 

The ESF also includes Special Drawing Rights (SDRs), which are international reserve assets created by the International Monetary Fund. The ESF can also enter into "warehouse" swaps with the Federal Reserve System. 

The Federal Reserve has a repurchase facility for foreign and international monetary authorities, also known as the FIMA Repo Facility. 

This allows foreign account holders to temporarily exchange Treasury Securities for dollars to meet potential liquidity needs. 

"According to TreasuryDirect, Treasury Bills, Notes, Bonds, TIPS, and FRNs are transferable, so you can buy or sell them in the secondary market."

Yes, foreign currency, also known as forex, is traded on the secondary market, which includes equities and fixed-income instruments like bonds.

The foreign exchange market is a decentralized, over-the-counter (OTC) marketplace that determines the exchange rate for currencies around the world.  

Let me end this dialogue where we began it. And, this is a direct quote from the CBI website, "Activity transactions on the (FITR) platform." 

This gives us an idea of how close we are. Let me be clear, we do not know if these are testing transactions or actual transactions at this time. But, we do know they are in training for the use of this trading mechanism for a reason.

Iraq To Release a New IQD Rate in July🚩Wow, This is a Done Deal?🤔Dinar R...

Marketing 600,000 FTTH fiber optic lines in Iraq

 7/12/2024  Baghdad

The Ministry of Communications announced today, Friday, the development of a plan and schedule with the companies contracting with it, in coordination with the Baghdad Municipality and the governorates, to deliver and implement fiber optic lines (FTTH) in all regions and governorates, while indicating the marketing of 600,000 fiber optic lines.

The Director General of the General Company for Communications and Information Technology at the Ministry of Communications, Ali Yassin, said: “The Ministry of Communications, represented by the General Company for Communications and Information Technology, has implemented more than 3 million FTTH fiber optic lines, and 600,000 lines of them have been marketed so far,” noting that “the ministry has developed a plan for the transfer of the rest of the governorates and a schedule with the companies contracted with it for the purpose of implementing and completing the rest of the governorates of Iraq.”

Yassin added, "Coordination has been made with the Baghdad Municipality to facilitate the work of companies contracting with the General Company for Communications and Information Technology to implement and extend cables for FTTH technology, as well as coordination with the governorates to facilitate the task of companies contracting with the General Company for Communications and Information Technology and to set controls and standards for implementation."

He pointed out that "the areas where the lines have been completed, including those on the Karkh side (Al-Saydiya, Al-Jami'a neighborhood, and Al-Adl) and on the Rusafa side (Zayona, and Palestine Street), are all equipped with FTTH service, as are the governorates such as Karbala and Najaf."

He pointed out that "the advantages of the lines are improving the quality of service provided to citizens at competitive prices, especially since most citizens complain about poor Wi-Fi service."

Therefore, FTTH service on optical cable will save them from that.”   LINK

Member: Welcome to the weekend

Member: Hear any great news today Mark?

MZ: The biggest news today came from banking, wealth management, redemption folks . I was told they do have to work this weekend. It’s mandatory that they have to work this weekend. It is only part time hours….They do not have to work a full day. That could change? But this is unusual. 

MZ: Normally they set them up as a “call in” But no- this weekend they have to work. I hope it means something lovely. 

Member: Perhaps those being called in to the banks to work part time this weekend; maybe it's for final training before the big show????

Member: Did anyone else see the Fox story reporting on Nesara from Charles Payne…….This was on the 10th. 

MZ: They never mentioned the term Nesara….They talked about a great wealth transfer and the need for debt forgiveness….It was still a great piece…and they mentioned all about the things needed to do to make this happen. 

Member: Two weeks back I saw an article that the Pope was calling for Metal back currency and a Debt Jubilee.

Member: Bingo! Timing is everything.

Member: I thought you said this week that Iraq has the rate already?

MZ: I absolutely believe they have the rate….. I don’t think Iraq is stalling….I think they are waiting for the “go” signal. 

Member: I would love to know who gives the “GO” signal. 

Member: I think the US is stalling.

Member: Iraq only accepts dinar for their oil…something is happening.

Member: Mark, wolverine said this weekend we will receive our notice ….I sure hope this is  true?

MZ: Most of what I am getting is for earlier next week…..BUT, I did just find out that some of my banking/redemption contacts said they have to work this weekend. It’s not “on call” Its mandatory to work…..so it is possible. 

MZ: “DOW hits all time high in broader market rally”   Reminds me of 1929……a lot. And Forbes just released that thy think the markets are about to have a massive correction. 

MZ: This is a melt up…watch it. Markets do this just before a big correction. 

Member: What is your guy saying Mark?

MZ: My gut is screaming it will be this month…...

Member: Article: The 2024 budget will be returned to the house of representatives …saying its “unconstitutional”? 

MZ: It’s my understanding they sent it back and the official story out if Iraq is they are correcting some minor issues with tables…and the rumor is running that we will see a rate change when they correct the tables. At least that is the rumor running around Iraq…. 

Member: I received an email from Chase bank inviting me to the “Private Side” I only have $25 in my checking account.
