2-3-2014 Newshound/Intel Guru Eagle1

2-3-2014   Newshound/Intel Guru Eagle1    This is a revalued figure we have been seeing since shortly after I had a sneak peak at the Iraqi Budget in the Spring of 2013.  You may remember that I calculated the RV of the IQD on the basis of taking the projected income for the year against their projected expenditures.  The number at that time was a fraction of a penny under $3.42.  It appears they have pretty much maintained that number.  This is not an RV of the IQD: this is an RI (or an approximate reinstatement of original value).  Although there have been suggestions that the number may actually come out closer to $3.50 with the objective of achieving parity with the Kuwaiti Dinar, it appears to me at this moment that we may have to wait to see a higher value for the IQD.   [post 2 of 3....stay tuned]
