6-30-2014 Intel Guru TD

6-30-2014 Intel Guru TD (So what is the significance of July 1st ? ) . Well, I can tell you FOR SURE that it is NOT the END GAME. At best, July 1st represents the( hopeful) union of parliament to START to form a new government. And as of right now so many variables are at play that it's a statistical nightmare trying to predict the outcome.  One very certain consensus is that NO ONE wants Maliki and till he goes the pieces won't even start to come together.  IF and WHEN a suitable functioning government starts back working on the people's business (AND ONLY THEN) will other issues left on the table be possible to address including IMF compliance, economic reform laws passed, etc.

6-30-2014   Intel/Newshound Guru Poppy3     I STILL BELIEVE THERE WILL BE NO FLOAT IT WILL BE A FLAT RATE AS THE CBI HAS SAID MANY TIMES. THE RATE I STILL BELIEVE WILL BE 3 DOLLARS PLUS. I HAVE SEEN ZERO OFFICIAL REPORT FROM ANYONE THAT HAS EVER SAID DIFFERENT FROM THAT.   I DO BELIEVE WHEN THAT OFFICE OPENS WE ARE SUBJECT TO SEE THE RATE AT ANY MOMENT AFTER. THE REASON I FEEL THAT WAY IS THAT BEHIND THE SCENES WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT AGREEMENTS WHERE MADE ALREADY WITH THE IMF, WORLD BANKS PEOPLE. EITHER WAY WITHIN A VERY SHORT PERIOD WE WILL KNOW ALL THE ANSWERS FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER.   [post 2 of 2]

6-30-14  Newshound Guru Tlar   [it looks to me like they are already separating into 3 regions within the country of Iraq.]    Kurddistan has already stated they want to work within the confines of Iraq which means stay.  They got what they want as do the Sunni's the minute a new government exists.  This will be a democracy and it is my belief they are better off as part of Iraq than by themselves.  I have said it for years that references to leaving Iraq is bluster used when they want to move the process along.  With Maliki gone, the big picture for Iraq is good. 

6-30-2014 Newshound Guru Tlar

6-30-2014   Newshound Guru Tlar   Turki a couple of months ago himself said I would love to do it today (as in now) if the government was "settled".  The government will be "settled" maybe as early as next week which is also very close to his other timeline Turki stated he wanted to do this, which is around July 1st.  Turki's exact wording was mid-year which implies around the 1st but not necessarily meaning it has to be July 1st...   The CBI has been ready since October of last year and has said so in many articles stating that all the necessary tools were in place.

6-30-2014   Intel Guru Frank26   As much as I studied July 1st...and it's GREAT POTENTIAL for the CBI to give the Parl/ GOI an International Rate to ACTIVATE so many things...I disagree.  UNFORTUNETLY!  Why?  Because in order for the CBI to give The Parl/GOI such an IR ...We needed to first see a complete qualification of IMF Article 8 by The CBI.  BUT, IOO (In Our Opinion), They are using TWO sets of books with TWO separate rates.  One rate that breathes at the surface at this moment.  The other that continues to hold it's breath submerged until The AoP (Author of the Plan)  say...OK now.

6-30-2014   Newshound Guru Enorrste    Therefore, if they refuse to show at Parliament they will appear to be sympathizing with the Daash movement.  This could bode well for Maliki's cause, if the people buy into it.  Maliki, through this puppet, has put his opposition in the palm of Daash, in theory at least, if not in fact.  How this will play out remains to be seen, but I agree ...that this is "crazy" at best, but probably good politics from Maliki's point of view.  [post 2 of 2]

6-30-2014   Newshound Guru Enorrste   Article:   "Kamal al-Saadi: from linking to attend the first session of parliament to form a national salvation government supports Daash"   This is a very interesting ploy on the part of the SOL leadership.  He is basically saying that those who refuse to go to the new Parliament meeting, in an attempt to slow it down, are in fact being backed by Daash.  He then goes so far as to say that those seeking a National Salvation Government are also backed by Daash, the Sunni terrorists. In doing this he is pitting Sunnis against Shiites and is saying that the "real" reason for the insurgency is that the Sunnis are attempting to overtake the government, by force if necessary.  [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

6-25-32014   Newshound Guru wmawhite    keep in mind that the Governor of the CBI stated that when the government is decided...NOT when they love each other, NOT when they get along or is stable...because those thing are all relative. Instead, he stated "when decided" we (implying the Board of Directors of the CBI) will move forward with the project.  Furthermore,...IMO this tells me it does not matter who is running the show...the CBI just needs a functioning government.

NOW WE KNOW THEY HAVE BEEN DELAYED SOME BUT THIS GOAL WAS SET BY THEM AND THEY DIDN'T TELL JUST YOU AND I THEY TOLD THE WORLD. QUESTION TO ASK IS WILL THEY MEET THEIR GOAL OR WILL THEY USE THE TERRORIST ATTACKS FOR A EXCUSE AND THEY HAVE ALREADY SAID THE ATTACKS AND POLITICS WILL NOT EFFECT THEIR COMPLETING FINANCIAL REFORM SO THEY HAVE PLACED A MONKEY ON THEIR BACKS ALL ALONE.

6-25-2014   Newshound/Intel Guru BGG    [I never have understood why Maliki seems so opposed to a revalue of the currency?]  He's an Iranian proxy - has been a "weak Dinar policy" guy from day one.  Should he manage (by some miracle) to stay - any RV you might see under him won't be the kind we have imagined...it will start much lower. JMHO.  He is ruthless and that is one way to get Iraq off the hook for cheap... most of the 3 zero notes would be off the market within days.  [with a new PM would you think we might see a higher exchange rate?]  IMHO - yes.  

6-25-2014 Newshound Guru Chattels

6-25-2014   Newshound Guru Chattels    Maliki is the current manifestation of what is fundamentally wrong in Iraq. Constitutionality, the rule of law, due process and fundamental fairness is necessary for all and not just the Kurds. The Kurds understand that which is why they couch every action on terms of the constitution.

6-25-2014 Newshound Guru Enorrste

6-25-2014   Newshound Guru Enorrste   If Maliki is ousted next week...I will be the first one to eat crow.  There is no way Maliki is leaving next week, or the week after, or the week after that.  Time will tell.  I have my seasonings ready if I have to eat crow, but I'd wager I won't have to.  If/when parliament meets, Maliki will assert his right under the Constitution to form a new government.  Then 30 days later, he will appeal to the same process he employed 4 years ago and got approval for from the Supreme Court.    In other words, nothing will happen for at least another 45 days.

Unequivocally...Totally...FALSE!

6-25-2014 Newshound Guru Kaperoni

6-25-2014   Newshound Guru Kaperoni     I will add, Maliki's poor management of the country is a clear example of how he has weakened the banking and monetary policy.  The CBI has been in essence "treading water" waiting for the rest of the country to get together so they could take the next step and do what I said above.  But Maliki has failed miserably in uniting the country and reducing violence.  The end result was the last four years were wasted and we are almost back to 2007-2008 conditions.  What needs to happen now is Maliki needs to go, a unified government needs to be installed and the country needs to stabilize, strengthen and remove the terrorism..and in short order.  The CBI is waiting.  [post 2 of 2]

6-25-2014   Newshound Guru Kaperoni   Article:   "Massive withdrawals of depositors .. and fears collapse of the dinar amid the absence of a central!"   it is clear that the problem is a lack of confidence from the citizens.  But the CBI is not helping matters as they say.  Despite Turki's statement the other day (plenty of reserves), he is not providing enough foreign currency to curb this problem..and the result is even less confidence.  If the dinar continues to drop in coming days (auctions) its only going to take them even further out of compliance with the IMF and delay any chance of monetary reform this year.   Until they get the country under control politically and reduce the violence that is not going to happen.   [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

I believe it greatly hastened his coming demise.  [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

6-25-2014  Newshound Guru Enorrste  It has always been my view that Maliki is shrewd, not dumb.  He does things because he himself benefits in some way...his placement of Turki in the CBI slot was for a reason that has benefited him.  We have never heard him say that the plan was not going to happen (raising the value of the dinar).  Never.  But we have heard Turki endorse the plan generally.  So, on god's green earth I see that Maliki will slowly evolve, to his own benefit, and allow Turki to move to Article VIII and the dinar to float.  [post 2 of 2]

6-25-2014 Newshound Guru Enorrste

6-25-2014  Newshound Guru Enorrste   ...it has been my view that Maliki was holding off on allowing the float for political reasons.  A weak dinar policy meant that his opponents would not reap the benefit of a rising dinar, assuming they were holders.  My statement Maliki will allow the float is consistent with his own statements and those of Turki.  Turki said just a few days ago that the dinar would enter the world stage late this year or early next year.  He would not say that without Maliki's approval.  Maliki also has stated that he wants the country to prosper and enter the world market.  The fact that he has not done much thus far to make that happen doesn't mean that it won't happen.  He actually has a great incentive to allow the float, once he is re-established with a third term.  He will become the ultimate hero.  [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

6-25-2014   Intel Guru Frank26  [via FlPatriot59]  This is what we believe happened. ..yesterday Turki came out and said what he said about raising the value of the currency. The timing of him coming out and saying this is very interesting. That meeting was with Gulf countries listening to Turki about monetary policy. He said the 70B on reserve they have has been tripled and could triple again. They're sitting on mountains of gold and abundant oil. And he said there's no ceiling. The only thing left is the HCL (HydroCarbon Law) and that will done on July 1. A deal has been made for Article 140. It was brokered by Iran. The fact that it's done is almost miraculous.

6-17-2014   Newshound Guru Kaperoni   [...why did the CBI jump 57% today...]    a 57% jump in sales in the daily auction means that there was an increase in demand for dollars which in essence means Iraqis are probably dumping the Iraqi dinar in wanting the dollar. when demand goes beyond the cost of imports and it becomes the citizens desire then the currency in the country becomes less desirable which is not good for us.
