Thursday Coffee with MarkZ

 Thursday Coffee with MarkZ. 07/31/2025

Some highlights by PDK-Not verbatim

MarkZ Disclaimer: Please consider everything on this call as my opinion. People who take notes do not catch everything and its best to watch the video so that you get everything in context.  Be sure to consult a professional for any financial decisions

Member: Good Morning on this “August 1 eve” 

Member: hope we are on the eve of the RV (announced by DJT tomorrow)?

Member: IMO -For Trump to say August 1 is a HUGE day for America, has to be something big because we’ve already been bringing in tariff income.

MZ: It might be another nothing burger…or it might be life changing…..we will see.

Member: Praying that good news arrives quickly - many are losing hope because the struggle to survive is overwhelming. Any RV news today Mark????

MZ: I do have a bond contact with a meeting tomorrow…..A couple more rumored to go today…but they are not my sources. I believe they are at the “tail end” which gives me a lot of positivity

Member: TNT is reporting the lower denoms are out and dinar rate is $5.41. Rumor?

MZ: Unfortunately I cannot verify that one,…my folks are saying it is not true..….but the rate would not surprise me. We have seen some older lower denominations in circulation…..but not the new ones yet.

Member: They need to audit the Fed, The Treasury and Ft. Knox….then reset.  

Member: They need to get rid of Powell, bring in Judy Shelton to shut the Federal Reserve down, just like McMahon is doing with Dept of Education

MZ: They are an out of control entity right now….Clearly Trump has a plan to rein them in. 

Member: I believe its all coming together…just not as quickly as we would like

MZ: I agree…..I really wanted it to happen way faster. 

MZ: “Turkish minister : We have sent Iraq a draft of the new agreement on the oil pipeline” Iraq has indicated they can double or triple their oil output right away. This could be enormously profitable for Iraq. Its all coming together is we pay attention to the tapestry the world is weaving. 

MZ: “State-owned  bank announces the settlement of 87% of Iraq’s external debt file”  that external debt file was huge between the end of Saadam Hussein and the Kuwait invasion up through today. Settling 87% is a huge number or debt repaid. They are in a great position for their currency and country internationally.  

Member: Any new news on the dong ? 

Member: I wonder if there is any chance that Vietnam goes tomorrow leading Iraq down that road based on their trade dependency?

Member: I wonder why the good guys have not allowed the RV take place already??

Member: Mark - My monthly PNC Checking Account Statement came yesterday and now says PNC Virtual Wallet Account.

Member: Chatter says Iran dropped zeros? 

MZ: We talked about this last night and shared an article on it. The earliest they will start making decisions is this fall. 

Member: I hope everyone has a great Thursday !!

Member: Thanks Mark for always being there for us even when news is quiet…..We appreciate you.

🇮🇶 Bank System “Lockout” in Iraq
