​​Member: Any idea what we might be waiting on? what is holding us up?

MZ: We have Al Alag (Governor of the CBI) in New York right now…he arrived overnight in New York……I hear from contacts at the Treasury that after meeting with financial people all week……the rumor is he will have a short diversion to DC mid week.  I think its good news for us that they are here. 

MZ: So we have a delegation from the  Central Bank of Iraq over here including the Governor of the CBI. I cannot imagine they came all this way to only discuss the 4 or 5 banks the Fed has an issue with as they clean up corruption. IMO there is something bigger going on. 

MZ: The whole world needs this. 

Member: wouldn't it be beneficial for Iraq to revalue sooner than later especially since what a 23 24 25 budget has been passed but yet we're nearly into 25 and there's nothing that's benefiting them

MZ: it would be beneficial for them to revalue sooner. I can tell you that they want to. 

MZ: MilitiaMan just did a great recap of all the progress Iraq is making. Be sure to go watch it. I will see if he can join us this week

MZ: AS usual on a Monday morning it’s pretty quiet. Nothing yet from the West Coast and Reno side of this. 

MZ: I did hear something from one or two of the groups – that they may take samples from one or two of the groups – and go ahead and exchange them to test the system before going ahead and letting it rip….I hope that is accurate because that would mean a few people will be getting money. 

Member: If they are short on test subjects…I volunteer…lol

MZ: I am told it will be random choosing the test subjects to test the exchange policies and system…..and it could be as early as this week. This could be huge and I understand why they would do this. 

MZ: I will let you know if I can confirm anybody being taken as a test subject. 

Member: We definitely want everything going smoothly when it’s our turn….so test away!!!.  ;

MZ: “Wall Street experts and Main Street investors see gold climbing higher next week as momentum builds” . This week they see it going higher….like I said before many people in the industry I know say $2500 is a concrete bottom for pricing. A major gold move may be coming this week. This may also push the central banks to get things done sooner. (RV?)

Member: Silver spot price is at $30.11 today

Member: Read an article about JP mortgage announcing taking XRP for credit card and mortgage payments

Member: I'm not sure how much water this holds but I heard that September 18th may be a possibility for our reset and re-evaluation

​​Member: MarkZ, What do you think about the Goldilocks article about Oct 21st for all final comments on the Financial changes??? Are we waiting until October??? I believe US is the hold up

​​Member: I’ll be really surprised if we get to the finish line by Election Day

MZ: I am not hearing we are waiting until after the election 

Member: Remember the big BRICS Summit is in Oct if I'm not mistaken…Maybe new gold backed currency and new financial system???

DINAR REVALUATION : Iraq's Economic Outlook for 2024: Stability, Security, and the Dinar's Strength, 26 AUGUST

Iraq's Economic Outlook for 2024: Stability, Security, and the Dinar's Strength

Iraq's economic landscape in 2024 is characterized by a mix of challenges and opportunities. Its economy, heavily dependent on oil, is navigating through a period of global economic uncertainty, which has implications for its fiscal health and overall stability. 

Economic Growth and Oil's Role

Growth in 2024 is anticipated to be modest, influenced by OPEC's production cuts and the fluctuation in oil prices.   Iraq, as the second-largest producer within OPEC, is adhering to these cuts, impacting its export revenues. The revaluation of the dinar in February 2023 has further complicated the situation by weakening the local currency equivalent of exports.

Non-Oil Sector: A Bright Spot?

Despite challenges in the oil sector, the non-oil GDP growth is expected to be bolstered by investment projects funded by the USD 150 billion budget approved by Parliament in June 2023.   Infrastructure projects, such as the reconstruction of Mosul airport, and increased public spending, including a raise in the minimum wage, are anticipated to support private consumption and stimulate economic activity.

Fiscal Situation and Oil Dependence

Iraq's economy remains heavily reliant on oil, with revenues from this sector accounting for a significant portion of government income.   This dependence exposes the country to volatility, as seen in the fluctuation of oil prices and its impact on Iraq's fiscal health. However, in 2021, government revenues surged due to higher oil prices, reaching a surplus of 5.3% of GDP. 

Challenges Ahead

The IMF has highlighted the need for Iraq to reduce its oil dependence to ensure fiscal sustainability.  This will involve controlling the public wage bill and increasing non-oil tax revenues. Moreover, enabling private sector development through labor market reforms and financial sector modernization is crucial for higher economic growth and to absorb the expanding labor force. 

Stability and Security Implications

Iraq's political and security situation is inextricably linked to its economic stability.  The overreliance on oil revenues has contributed to political and economic strife, with any downturn in oil prices leading to fiscal stress. The health of the economy, in turn, affects social cohesion and the country's security landscape.

Outlook for the Dinar

The strength of the Iraqi dinar is influenced by oil prices, fiscal policies, and global economic conditions.  Its revaluation in 2023 has affected the economy, highlighting the interplay between the currency's value and the country's economic stability.

Conclusion

Iraq's path to economic stability in 2024 is contingent on a multitude of factors, both internal and external. The government's efforts to diversify the economy and manage fiscal resources effectively will be key determinants of success. The country's security situation and social cohesion are also crucial, as they directly impact economic performance and investor confidence.

Strong economy strong dinar, 26 AUGUST

Mohammed Saleh Al-Badrani

 Any talk about improvement in any field is theoretical talk that will not produce anything unless stability, social cohesion and a stable security situation are achieved. This matter requires attention to details and loose threads.

Civilization needs foundations to be a platform for advancement, and stability is the basis. It is a general word that includes the societal structure, reform of institutions and administration, and the establishment of an ideology that everyone seeks to achieve through which plans are built, sectors are supported, and prosperity is one of its outcomes.

This requires the advancement of education, support for general culture, and aspirations towards movement without obstructive limitations. Other than this, everything we say or will say becomes mere wishes and desires that have no means or institutions to achieve them . 

Stability and the crystallization of the character of the state and its institutions will be built accordingly, and it is the same path of progress that expands and opens up the fields of renaissance by forming the nation and then by forming the stable state .

1. Relying on oil without investing it will not improve the economy or increase the strength of the dinar. Rather, it is an invisible deterioration, and everything that is treated with it is like wood dye that is eaten by termites. For this reason, oil and other resources such as customs revenues and taxes must be invested, not by increasing taxes and exhausting the citizen, but by making it flow in a way that makes the citizen comfortable, so that it is in harmony with the state and its plans and is part of its plan, and the state is not considered a feudal lord or a squire who wants to stray from its paths .

2. Taking care of the countryside and returning people to it with plans, projects, industries and factories for agriculture and raising poultry, cows and sheep to produce meat and other things, with managing the land to grow fodder, and establishing fodder factories in strategic areas, and factories for animal products and canning them. As for the citizen’s return without a plan, it will be a matter whose feasibility will weaken unless capital enters from somewhere as capital for those who have money and find a way to operate it. This will be practical and realistic after stability .

3. Stopping government appointments with the absence of projects and the increase in colleges and universities means producing a cadre that is not good at taking care of itself or doing any work in order to live. It is necessary to establish private projects and companies and the state encourages their stability and facilitates their establishment with the establishment of a retirement guarantee similar to the state retirement system, and thus the momentum for work in government jobs is reduced.

This may come through partnerships with companies in industrialized countries to localize major factories and food and mechanical industries such as cars and machinery and support them with oil at cost price, in exchange for social care supervised by the state and looked into by the state so that those who work in these companies, facilities or industries are not harmed if one of the companies decides to abandon work. This means establishing contract models that specify the workforce, job positions and expertise and developing them through continuous education .

Regional environment

4. Establishing interest-based relations with the regional environment, and establishing water agreements in a way that realistically looks at everyone’s interests, and through cooperation in water management, investment, and joint planning as management and facilities so that there is no clear gap between desires and reality, and between proposals that have not entered the logical filters, as climate change is likely and to a large extent, but its results cannot be determined, so confronting it today through projects that do not put the country in a state of death and are capable of supplying economic and human movement is very important .

5. Desalination of Gulf water and engineering its pumping so that it covers and revives every inch of Iraq, and the rapid transformation to modern and economic agriculture will reduce pollution. The marshes will not be relied upon as water bodies, but rather as tourist investment areas such as winter resorts and fish farms, as is suitable for them.

 The dinar and the economy need real work and confidence in the currency is confidence in the economy of the countries, which expresses confidence in the management of the country itself.

 What we write here is the salt in the perspective of the reality of the situation, so that the effort of the meetings is not wasted and becomes air in the net, as they say. It is certain that there are specialists in the country, but they should not look at the experiences of others and transfer them as templates. Capitalism is not a fragmentation system, but rather a system that built itself for hundreds of years until it settled in the situation we see, and those who live in it will not see it as an option. Likewise, socialist systems do not have direct scientific applications.

We need to benefit from these systems in making a suitable system successful, as China did, which has a strong economy that does not look at the exchange rate of its currency, but is strong in its global dealings

. Perhaps if the countries of the region united to create their own currency and trade, they would gain a position in managing the global economy. All of this requires effort and time, and before that, determination in understanding and preparation and a will to implement   link

THE PURPOSE OF QFS BY MR. POOL, 26 AUGUST

 The Purpose of QFS, Mr. Pool on Telegram

  • The purpose of the QFS is to end c********n, u***y and m**********n within the banking system. “Banks” will no longer need to make huge profits from money transfer transactions.
  • The QFS will be completely independent of any existing “centralized” system and all other transport systems will be obsolete.
  • QFS is not a cryptocurrency. After REVAL (revaluation), the currency of all nations will become obsolete, collateralizing assets and ensuring a stable value (this process is simply a bank of information in the computer’s memory).
  • Activation of the QFS ends the ‘central banking system,’ perpetuating so-called ‘debt s*****y’
  • Official site of Quantum Financial System (QFS): Enter your personal information and find out how much money you have in your account. https://t.me/+9c_RzxhDf6E5ZDAx
