BGG (Dinar Guru) –   [Do you think that the IMF meeting with the CBI and GOI this weekend could be the GO/No Go meeting for the Revalue of Iraq’s currency?]   IMHO it looks as if all these “talks” will happen first – THEN the Executive Board will decide and vote on, what to do.  …the next few days are going to be very, very full of activity. Followed up by the IMF Executive Board.   I’m saying – the end of April… up through about the 29th – is a VERY BUSY TIME for Iraq and the world financial overseers.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –    […what your thoughts on that no float….I did some research and there are advantages and cons about a pegged rate. I read if theyd come out low it will help with trade but on the other hand it could raise inflation.]  Not could – will…it would start an inflationary trend that might not be easy to stop.  IMHO – it will be a “managed float” – meaning: it will look so much like a fixed rate – it might as well be fixed.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –    [Do you think that the IMF meeting with the CBI and GOI this weekend could be the GO/No Go meeting for the Revalue of Iraq’s currency?]  I will offer that it is a very important meeting.  With the frozen funds coming back on line in June seems strategic.

Breitling (Dinar Guru) – …Think about all the numbers we’ve been watching over the years…we knew what we needed to look for…We always talked about the note count.  The note count has to be going down.  At it’s peak when I got into the dinar…it was 15 trillion dinar…NOT NOTESdinar.  The max Iraq has had is 9 Billion notes which represented about 30 trillion dinar.  So what does that mean?  If you have 1 note that’s worth 25k and one note that’s worth 10k, you can see how there are more dinar than there are notes and that’s why we need to be able to parse those numbers to understand exactly what’s going on.  But the total was 30 trillion dinar out there and they brought that number down by reducing the note count.  So what are we at today?______________________________________________________________

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Central Bank Governor: no room to cancel the sale of the dollar window, if canceled, the exchange rate has become 3 or 4 thousand, and perhaps more”    Article quote:  “On the prospects of floating Aldenarabraghi, similar to other countries in the region, Keywords said that it is Matrouh sealed now, and we are working on editing currency and not float, a large difference between the two”  that is a BIG ARTICLE…there won’t be any FLOAT… (no float).

1bobby (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Parliamentary economy talks about the provisions of the law “Trademarks”  As we delved further into what we are seeing is a WTO requirement. The TRIPS Agreement within the WTO guidelines mainly deals with intellectual property protections, it also go into trademark issues. Some ask if this needed for an RV. What it is needed for is promoting trade which is one of the pillars that influences exchange rates.

1bobby (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “Iraq and Kuwait to discuss mechanisms for achieving economic complementarity”   When they speak of “mechanisms” that means that the substance(s) of the agreement have been met, now they are looking towards implementation. Kuwait and the other ME Countries are learning that they can not survive by oil alone and they need to open the doors to more of a non oil revenue based economy.   Iraq has lifted a ban that basically gives the right to Kuwati citizens the right to own property and invest in Iraq.  Now Iraq wants the same from Kuwait.  Kuwait calls Iraq “An important and promising market“.

DayTrader, a News Researcher for DinarUpdates.com, recently had some interesting commentary.

Here are his thoughts:

Article 140 is much more complex than many realize. If you read Article 140 in the Iraq constitution, it refers to Article 58 of the Law of Administration for the State of Iraq for the Transitional Period that outlines all the steps that must be completed. This was a document constructed by Paul Bremmer to be used until a permanent constitution could be developed and ratified by Iraq. Article 58 states:

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   […I saw the ad for Zain prepaid phone cards in denominations of 250, 500, and 1000 IQD. I would assume they would be similar to 25, 50, and 100 dollar cards. Is this then telling us they are removing 1 zero and not 3? Not sure what to think.]  Could just be moving toward increased value.  I highly doubt they “take off one zero” since the whole “three zeros project” isn’t about nominal value – or moving the decimal point. It’s about increasing the value.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Jubouri Kubiche: The victory of the security forces returned to the political stability of the country”   ...if Iraq was waiting for this (as they have said over and over) then yes, it should be a sign of good things to come.  That being said, I continue to believe the CBI must meet compliance with the IMF before anything currency related can occur… and they are not in compliance.

Loop (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Head of the IMF mission’s (term) interest peg to the dollar rather than a large reduction of the Iraqi economy”  The head of the IMF mission in Iraq is answering questions.  THe IMF is saying that to decrease the value of the dinar against the dollar would only lead to inflation and that the CBI has the needed reserves to support the economy.   [we certainly dont want it devalued any more. It won’t. THere is no reason for it. Their economy is expanding so why on earth would the throw it into reverse?  Just like I do not think a float is going to happen.  They also are saying that there is no issue with the debt that they have taken on to support the country as long as the follow the process as outlined in the SBA.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   The BIGGEST article of the day…  “Director of the Issuance Department of the Central Bank: Printed currency volume exceeds 11 billion and 600 million dinars”  (the title is a little weak for the content of the article)…the title should have read RV- RV- RV!!  Quote: Most of the Iraqi Central Bank steps are subject to political and legal environment of the country, especially in regard to the deletion of zeros…”   …this is what you are after – EXACTLY. PERIOD.   it’s isn’t a removing of the 000 from the notes…it isn’t a changing of the DECIMAL POINT…it isn’t a change in the nominal value…IT’S A CHANGING OF THE REAL VALUE and A BRINGING IN OF THE BIG NOTES… “…deleting the big 000 notes from the market place”  = RV.   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

BGG (Dinar Guru) –  …they have no intent on bringing out any bigger note classes – THEY DON’T NEED IT… value is going the other way…nowhere in there does it mention Article 140 – HCL – or anything else… nor does it bother to mention any laws needing passed… just a few changes.

Director of the Issuance Department of the Central Bank: Printed currency volume exceeds 11 billion and 600 million dinars

Most of the Iraqi Central Bank steps are subject to political and legal environment of the country , especially in regard to the deletion of zeros that counted specialists in the earlier trend sensitive and dangerous may still be , but the central remains the most important institution in terms of the need to adjust the financial management in light of the financial crisis experienced by the the Iraqi economy, which must have to deal with dilemmas , whether with regard to the citizen or the work of the central bank itself.

1bobby (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Office: Abadi agreed with the delegation of the Kurdistan Region to remove obstacles that prevented the activation of Article 140”  The infamous Art 140 is in the Constitution, just not activated and or implemented. Now 140 does not cover all of Iraq, just Kirkuk and the disputed territories, Kikuk being ground zero.  With Abadi agreeing to remove all obstacles to implement 140 is a HUGE step forward and something the Kurds can work with. Now while there are numerous cities/districts covered under 140, Kirkuk is the main concern. Kirkuk sits atop one of the largest oil reserves in Iraq, most reports estimate over 40 billion barrels of oil.  …If Abadi is willing to remove the obstacles, then the Kurds will control Kirkuk. This action does not require a Parliamentary vote since it’s already in the Constitution. What Baghdad wants is what the constitution states “All oil within Iraq belongs to all Iraqi’s“…So if the Kurds get what they want, Baghdad will want all oil proceeds to flow thru Baghdad and then %’s will be distributed accordingly.  We’ll just have to let this play out and see what they do, not what they say.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  [What’s left before NEEDED to be taken off programmed rate?]  Answer: That is what we are watching for.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  [We have always heard when article 140 and HCL are put into place and activated we should see the rate within hours of implementation. We know Mosul is a key part. Can they implement HCL and Article 140 on a program rate?]   Answer:   That theory is old and unfounded, and tends to put events in the wrong order, according to what we know right now. Being as this is never mentioned in any of Alaks statements when asked about what the CBI needs to make full monetary reforms, I have put it out of my vocabulary.  As to the third part of your question, can they implement 140 at program rate, I think it is so far in the future (Art140) they will have a “rate” by then. But IMO one doesn’t equal the other. They are stand alone issues, unhinged one from another. Rate is only important to us.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “Abadi: Two months separating Iraq’s exit from Chapter VII”  [It would seem that Iraq’s removal of Chapter 7 would occur before the dinar becomes marketable and begins to float…]    …though it’s important for Iraq to have it’s own currency once sovereign, I do not think they are directly related. When the dinar floats is a more of a decision of the CBI based on monetary policy. IMO, I do not expect it to begin until just before foreign investment begins to pour into Iraq.

Baghdad Says U.S. Pledges Continued Support for Iraq’s War Against IS

BAGHDAD (Reuters) – U.S. Vice President Mike Pence on Saturday assured Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi of continued U.S. support to defeat Islamic State, the Iraqi government said in a statement.

The two discussed the situation in Syria and the war on Islamic State in a phone call from Pence following Friday’s U.S. strikes on a Syrian airbase to punish a chemical attack that killed scores of civilians this week in an area held by the opposition to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) –   We are in the next step of the monetary reform… many asked why they were putting more IQD’s …more 3 zeros back into the market in Iraq?  We never said they were putting 3 zeros back into the market, we said they were putting dinars back into the market to accomplish:   #1 – MCP – elimination of the USD’s.   #2 – to educate the citizens.  It’s NOT the value of the notes thats important…IT’S THE NOTE COUNT …remember ONE 50k note …would be equivalent to FIVE 10k notes…One 50k note…that they bring into the bank…because they are going to get it as “pay” – they would have to bring back FIVE 10k notes…would they not?   [Reducing the note count]  So what about your 3 zeros notesYour 3 zero notes are going to the FEDS. It’s internally. That is where the monetary reform (MR) is now.
______________________________________________________________

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) –   The goal is to de-dollarize the markets of Iraq.  This will occur by doing 1,000 to 1…which IMO…is going on right now.  When they do change the EXCHANGE RATE…to show 1 to 1…YES!  …at that time, they will introduce more dinars…but guess what kind?  The LOWER-DENOMS.  Not the 50k they are using in their pay. This process will be concurrent – (at the same time).  We never said they were putting Iraqi notes back into the market.  This process is to take those notes away from the market.  You will NOT see this 1,000 to 1 on the CBI website…it is 1 to 1 that you will see someday on the CBI website …IMO…that is VERY CLOSE …right around the corner…because they are doing 1,000 to 1 right now.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   […are we just pretty much waiting on the total liberation of Mosul or what? I know, I know…the HCL must be passed and all that, but it seems as if Mosul is a real turning point?]  Total liberation of Mosul? No sir, I do not believe Mosul will ever be totally liberated, nor will ISIS/ISIL/(Or Any Other Terror Group) be completely “eradicated”. The “war on terror” will never be “won”, we can only hope to keep it at a “manageable level”, and I believe we are pretty close to achieving that already, if not completely done achieving it.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – […just want to make sure I understand correctly…any country in history that went through a currency reval… redenom…etc. always revealed their 1000:1 exchange rate.  However, this time, with Iraq, we will NOT be seeing the 1000:1 exchange rate. We’ll see the 1:1 at its appropriate time. Correct? IMO…Yes.
______________________________________________________________

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   […are you still as positive this week about the HCL being implemented as you were a few weeks ago?… and can Iraq change the rate anytime they want throughout the year or does it have to be done by the first quarter?]   Absolutely yes! And they can do this any time they want, there are absolutely no real restrictions. “Any given Sunday”, as they say… or Monday, Tuesday, etc.  [Do you think is possible to see an RV in 2017… YES, emphatically so!

Safe Zones As Soft Military Occupation: Trump’s Plan For Syria, Iraq Is Taking Shape

The Trump administration is moving closer to its goal of creating “safe zones” within Syria. Though this strategy may be described as a humanitarian effort, the sizable increase in military presence that it will bring looks more like an invasion in disguise.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   “REPORT: Is the Iraqi dinar Recovering?”  Quote:  “With the economic boom led by the oil industry in Iraq, the national currency will rise eventually to reflect the true value of the oil indispensability of the country. It is likely to happen up when the central bank raises the value of the dinar.”    Nice to hear them talk about the potential and process for the dinar. That being said, Iraq has not passed a significant law in quite a while even though many have called for them to do so. Yes, the banking system has made progress the last year under the guidance of the IMF, but it’s time Iraq does it’s part and pass the laws, to create the environment for investment. Then we shall see what happens.

A report of the Network (CNBC) American that confidence expressed by Fitch International Foundation bisect the credit of the Iraqi economy last month, which will have a positive impact on investment in Iraq.

Network wrote in its report that Fitch gave Iraq rating B + with a positive outlook for the future, which believes it will be stable, although it is fighting a war against (Daesh).

She added that Fitch placed Iraq at the level of B + due to political risks and instability caused by conflicts going through.

Iraqi Position Network Iraqi Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi said Sunday that Iraq is moving toward stability and community reconciliation and that the country has enormous potential for investment.

“The Iraqi position” on the need for institutional reform of the state and create jobs for new energies in the country.

He pointed out that the Iraqi budgets during the past years have accumulated with the growth and growth of the population throughout the country, so that the population will double in Iraq in a quarter of a century and will double the need for energy, “electricity and oil” over the next 15 years.

Al-Abbadi explained that Iraq is running for energy and that we seek to benefit from every barrel of oil and every torch of gas burned, declaring that the five-year plan is no longer sufficient and reliable for production because of the ongoing wars, which led to the decline of economic growth, the budgets of Iraq can no longer be sufficient to meet and cover The cost of current population growth.

Iraq will not sever ties with Iran despite pressure from Arab nations

AMMAN, Jordan – Iraq will not sever ties with neighboring Iran under pressure from other Arab countries, the Iraqi Foreign Minister confirmed to Rudaw on the sidelines of the Amman Summit as a draft resolution is being considered by the Arab League members calling on Tehran to cease meddling in affairs of the region.

“Iraq is not ready to step towards agitating the region and will not sever ties with any neighboring country,” Ibrahim al-Jaafari told Rudaw, referring to its Shiite neighbor Iran, a strong ally of Baghdad.

Baghdad is not willing to cut ties with any neighboring country, even Turkey, Jaafari said, despite growing differences between the two over the presence of Turkish troops in northern Iraq.

“Do you know that when I am speaking right here Turkish troops are in Iraq, but we have not ended relations with Turkey,” he said.

He stressed that Iraq is doing its best to have friendly relations with its neighbors.

“We do our outmost to lead our relations to go on the right way,” he said, confidently.

______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   I think many in and out of Iraq believe the dinar is under valued.  We have even heard “grossly under valued” before in statements.   The fact is, the CBI is and must follow the directives of the IMF.  No if’s, and’s about it. We cannot pick and choose what we read in IMF documents, if we believe the IMF, we must accept it all.  Therefore, we see the CBI following the directives, attempting to remove restrictions (ie. the spread), rebuilding the banking system, removing restrictions on foreign exchange, cracking down on corruption and money laundering all in an attempt to prepare for Article VIII and freedom of movement of capital in and out of Iraq.  Let it come to us.
______________________________________________________________

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   When we talk about the price tag the IMF and the UN have put on Mosul…one has to wonder exactly what leverage the UN has in this game…  It is clear what say the IMF has – they are the IMF… but the UN, on the other hand, not so clear…unless viewed through this narrow window. I doubt the UN will allow Iraq an immediate exit from Chapter 7 – the sanctions, yes… the protection… I just doubt it.  What does this mean for us? As long as they are doing as the IMF and UN have laid out for them – no reason the IMF and the UN won’t support a return “international acceptance and integration”…and that is all any of us care about.  [what has to happen for them to get out of chapter 7]   A better question – and the one we all really want to know is… do they even have to be fully out of Chapter 7?   My guess. No – they do not…

1bobby (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Abadi calls during his meeting with the Secretary of the United Nations to remove Iraq from Chapter VII”  We knew that Iraq was NOT out of Chapter 7, but not in a stranglehold as they had been. They now have the right to defend themselves and control their currency. The issues that are outstanding are the reparations to Kuwait and to the best of my knowledge the Oil for Food/Medicine Program. Now if we look back to late last year Iraq made an announcement that the OFP had ended. If we recall the U.N Rep stated that Iraq has made great progress as far as the OFP and the June date was set as a “let’s see what happens between now and then” kind of a date. For Abadi to publicly come out and ask the U.N Secretary General to no longer associate Iraq with Ch 7, is a big move on his part and I doubt he’s expecting a no answer. They can still have working files, but to have the U.N come out and publicly rid Iraq of the CH 7 shadow would be a huge move forward. As we have seen Kuwait has been a big supporter of Iraq as of late and has continuously been working with Iraq on outstanding issues.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Iraq’s Current Economic Outlook And How it Can Affect Dinar Value”   Quote:  “With the economic boom led by Iraq’s oil industry, the national currency in the form of the Dinar will eventually rise to reflect the true value of the country’s oil wealth. The rise will most likely happen when the National Bank of Iraq lifts the artificially low value placed on the nation’s currency in 2003.”   The problem with that statement is the dinar is not artificially low.  It reflects the current exchange rate based on the current conditions.  Remember, Shabibi raised the value already from about 3000 / $1 to 1186 /$1 back in 2004-2005 to reduce inflation.  Until the market economy takes off, IMO we will not the dinar rise the remainder of the way.  To me, making such a statement as “artificially low value”…shows a lack of understanding…

Trump reaffirms US commitment to Iraqi people in phone call with Abadi

BAGHDAD, Iraq — A week after meeting face-to-face in Washington, D.C., Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi received a phone call late Wednesday night, in which US President Donald Trump reaffirmed US commitment to the Iraqi people in the fight against ISIS.

Trump emphasized that military and intelligence cooperation should continue, according to the PM’s website, adding that the courage and intelligence of the Iraqi people “who are loved and respected” by the US will inevitably banish “ISIS gangs.”…

Loop (Dinar Guru) – Article:  “Iraq’s economy is now on the way to recovery”   Quotes:  “The World Bank’s latest economic forecast expected Iraq to bounce back in 2016, growing at 7.2% in that year and continuing at around 5% in the next few years…With the security situation now improving, and the oil price on the rise – the indicators are moving in the right direction for Iraq’s economy.”   UK MP from Scotland telling a group of Scottish companies that now it the time to invest in Iraq to make huge profits in the future. She is saying the the greatest opportunity to profit from the investment is prior to their ascension into the WTO.   So once again we see someone from outside of Iraq pointing out what we have known for a long time. IRAQ’S ECONOMIC  POTENTIAL IS HUGE AND THEY ARE GETTING THEIR ACT TOGETHER TO REALIZE THAT.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) –   IN MY STRONG OPINION…the MR has been going on inside of Iraq for quite awhile ago.  We’ve shown you many articles of how this is possible.  Infancy is NOT the starting of the MR…it is in the stage that it is in right now… WALKING…taking it’s BABY STEPS…and soon…it will start WALKING VERY FAST!  The speed will pick up  just like we told you.  BRILLIANT CALCULATED STEPS by Abadi and Trump!  The East is done is Mosul…and 95% done on the West side of Mosul.  Abadi said …I will announce to the world that Mosul is liberated at the Arab Summit.  Abadi is under the US control…not like a puppet …we are a TEAM …Abadi is a TEAM PLAYER…and when he returns back to Iraq…GAMES ON!

BGG ~ This is complete B.S.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   [Would changing the rate of the Dinar have any affect on their rampant corruption issues?]   Just the opposite…them dealing with their corruption issues will help the world accept a higher rate for the Dinar. I am positive this is one of the items the IMF will be discussing shortly.

Loop (Dinar Guru) –   [Would changing the rate of the Dinar have any affect on their rampant corruption issues?]   IMO…They have a good handle on the corruption going on in the banking sector. While they still have work to do on this front they have systems in place to catch the crooks. So I do not see it has stopping them from a rate change at this point.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –  There’s one name in particular that I’m happy to see in the news: Abadi. Anyone who’s been in this for more than a couple years has seen the amazing progress that’s come about since Maliki got the boot and Abadi came stomping in with the big boy pants on! The GOI was revamped, decluttered, and streamlined. Parliament picked up the pace and got a lot of things done that were simply not happening under the previous administration, and now: 1. Abadi confirms he’s planning on running for a second term. I see this as a shoe-in, no-brainer, it will happen, DONE. (Yes, we are going to hear some noise from the Maliki Camp, I say…ignore it).  2. Abadi is working hard towards full IMF and basically global support, and the fruits are coming.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Don’t expect a huge announcement from Abadi on the RV…this is just more proof that Iraq and the PTB are not going to stay where they are. The country is poised to make a leap, and we’re watching!  Another thing I am paying close attention to in the news is Saudi Arabia… there is a LOT going on with that country right now. It’s a very complex situation, but the direction is tremendously good for us and for Iraq’s future as a very powerful and wealthy country. That might be one of the reasons why Saudi Arabia is taking these steps: “Saudi Arabia plans to cancel previous debt on Iraq”   Bottom line…this is happening fast, and we’re just here for the ride.  [post 2

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   You’re probably also seeing a lot of positive news regarding ISIS, Mosul, etc on the “tube”. Or at least, you aren’t seeing so many negative news stories… and you know why that is, don’t you?  It’s very simple – the media isn’t making a big deal about Iraq anymore because things are going REALLY GOOD, and those aren’t the stories that sell ads!   …there is a LOT of progress happening right now with oil, agreements, and security. These are exactly what we want to see!  We are getting to a point in this Iraqi Dinar situation that has me excited again, finally, and it’s been a long time since I felt this upbeat about the Dinar.  We’ve been going in the “right way” for a long time, but now we are on a STRONG path to victory!

Aggiedad77 (Dinar Guru) –    Article:  “Iraq looking to raise obstacles to the entry of US companies to invest”  IMO when Abadi talks here about “raising obstacles” he’s referring to a lessening of red tape for American companies and also a HUGE reduction in corruption issues that have kept many companies away in the past…He’s smiling because he knows who will pave the way for the success of his government as well as his country…and it will not be Iran…He’s got a new buddy in President Donald Trump and his administration…IMO look for Trump to be paying Iraq a visit this year…Frank [Guru Frank26]  said that issues with investors has to do with Iraq’s restrictions on capital movement…as well as UN sanctions not being lifted, thus causing countries and investors to not want to go against the UN…Abadi has some definite changes he needs to make…that he can make…lift those restrictions…raise the value of your currency…get rid of the UN restrictions…IMO.
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –    […wondering if Trump can push for currency reform.]   Currency reform is a consequence of economic and banking reform.   …the IMF has made it very clear the dinar will be floated and will rise as a result of the growth of the economy.  There is no confusion, it is stated clearly…the Balassa-Samuelson effect. Balassa–Samuelson implies that countries with rapidly expanding economies should tend to have more rapidly appreciating exchange rates.”  In other words Iraq’s dinar is directly related to the growth of the private sector/market economy.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “International Monetary Fund agrees to release contractors’ receivables”   Quote:  “The appearance of Mohammed Saleh that the second review of the credit agreement showed a clear understanding and success…This success is the understanding and agreement on the release of receivables of all contractors amounting to more than 4 trillion dinars once the Federal Audit Bureau announced the completion of audit contracts contractors, and we know the SAI is about to complete this process.”    So the IMF is going to pay almost $4 billion dollars to unpaid contractors in Iraq. This is huge.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   The IMF would never agree to accept Iraq into Article VIII if they cannot comply with the Article VIII requirements…  That means they must show stability at 2% or less for 90 days prior to acceptance into Article VIII.  I don’t see anyway around that.  That being said, they could get off the peg without approval from the IMF.

Just be thankful we were given the opportunity to be a part of this investment.  Timing is everything right now. One mistake in their calculations would be catastrophic. …the true rate will show on the CBI 1st.
