STATUS OF THE RV, PART. 2 BY MNT GOAT, 5 FEB
STATUS OF THE RV, PART. 2
What else is in the news?
WOW! It’s our first Newsletter of February 2025 already. Well, it appears no RV as of yet and January is long gone. But it’s not over until the fat lady sings….
I was reading more of the recent comments on the blog. I have to once again reinforce to everyone that the issuance of the visually impaired three zero notes is not an issue. As an investor, this is not something you should worry about.
Please go back and re-read my Newsletter in the Archives for the Newsletter dated January 21, 2025. The title of the article is “IRAQ ISSUES NEW BANKNOTES WITH INNOVATIVE SECURITY FEATURES FOR THE VISUALLY IMPAIRED.. PHOTOS”. What did I tell you then about these new notes? Please stop making up stories or speculating as to what they are and why these articles now. Just relax.
At that time weeks ago, I clearly stated what this article is all about. Yes, it is actually a good thing for our investment not a negative impact. Get it? Oh… but many of you don’t get it yet. But this brings me to yet another issue.
Do you trust even what I tell you? Why do you desire to find ways to deny the facts? Are you listening to some of these so-called self-proclaimed intel guru idiots? I really don’t understand all the negativity in this regard.
Why am I here on this blog if only a few want to listen to me? Again, please go back and read this Newsletter in the Archives. I will not repeat myself in these situations anymore. If you are too lazy to read the Newsletter that is not my fault. Everyone must learn to inform yourself and get educated. Then you have to remember what you know.
Iraq: What will change under the Trump Administration?
The fact that Trump is a businessman before being a politician gives him the advantage to see the great potential for American investment in Iraq. He is not in this for the kickbacks and corruption money, as in the Obama/Biden administrations. Just let the new Trump policies towards Iraq play out. The 2025 budget is not yet even opened and being played out.
Many seem to forget what I told you in the past. I said that the CBI told us that the month of January is the most opportune time to make a major revaluation of the currency. What does this mean? But most important is why did they tell us this?
They told us this because it is the beginning of their fiscal year. But the CBI did not tell us this is the only time. Also, we can see that the 2025 budget is not yet opened and the spending began. So, if they needed a new rate the budget is “flexible” and can be adjusted.
Get it? Oh… didn’t they tell us this too in an article, an article that I showed you in the past. Did you forget? Are you even reading the articles? Why not? Why do I post them if nobody reads them? Folks, I am not making this stuff up but you have to listen to me and stop all this guessing, hype and discourse. It does nothing for you. It is not going to change the situation.
Are you listening to the prophets? There is a “shifting” going on and things will not be the same in the near future. Iraq will finally get its independence again, I can assure you of this. But change is hard and as we know it is even harder when in the last 20 years the citizens have gotten used to the all the corruption as a way of life. But now it is ending in Iraq just as it will end in the US too.

Key Insights
📊 Stable Economic Measures: The approval of the budget law amendment is a proactive step by the Iraqi government to ensure financial stability and operational capacity for the coming years, especially in light of potential economic fluctuations due to declining oil prices. This shows a shift towards more sustainable budgeting practices.
🛢️ Strengthening Oil Exports: The delivery of oil from Kurdistan to the Federal Ministry of Oil represents a significant development in Iraq’s oil strategy. This not only promises to increase revenue but also facilitates the ongoing negotiation dynamics between the Kurdish region and the central government in Baghdad. The 300,000 barrels per day figure reflects a robust output that could enhance Iraq’s position in the global oil market.
🏦 Implications of a Sovereign Wealth Fund: The establishment of a sovereign wealth fund, as proposed by Trump, could have far-reaching implications for economic management in Iraq and globally. Such funds are typically used to manage national savings, stabilize the economy during downturns, and invest in infrastructure and development projects. For Iraq, this could mean better financial management of oil revenues and improved public services, provided that the fund is managed transparently and effectively.
💵 Impact of Salary Agreements: The agreement on salary payments between the Kurdistan region and Baghdad is crucial for economic stability in the region. Ensuring that salaries are paid on time can help to maintain public morale and support, which is especially important in a region that has faced economic hardship due to political and economic instability.
📉 Exchange Rate Stability: The current exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar against the US dollar reflects a level of stability amid ongoing discussions about economic reforms and oil revenues. Monitoring fluctuations in this rate will be essential for both local and foreign investors as they assess the viability of economic investments in Iraq.
