8-27-2014   Newshound Guru Kaperoni   Article:   "Central action keeps the money of depositors and shareholders"     This is a good "pat on the back" article as they say they have done a good job stabilizing the dinar/reducing the spread of late and implementing new policies and procedures with the auctions. I like how they end it in essence saying...despite this accomplishment, they have more work to do. Yes...we are waiting on that.   ...they probably have fulfilled the IMF requirements and are in compliance now. That does not mean they will request Article VIII tomorrow. In fact, the IMF may make them demonstrate they can sustain it for a period of time as well as they still need to form the GOI, pass stalled economic and banking laws and get some stability regarding the ISIL threat.  So it still could be a while.  But today is a good day.

8-27-2014 Newshound Guru Stryker

8-27-2014   Newshound Guru Stryker   Exchange Rate Update: The Market Rate of the Iraqi Dinar dropped to 1203 today from 1212 after dropping from 1217 on August 19th. This means that Iraq is heading closer to the 2% target rate the IMF says is needed for currency reform.  It looks like that with the daily auctions at and well over $2 million per day it will not take long to get to the target rate that the IMF has stated Iraq needs to be at to implement currency reform. Target rate needs to be within 2% of the de-facto CBI rate of 1166 and the market rate, and as you can see a 14 dinar drop just since August 19th is a great start.

8-27-2014 Newshound Guru Breitling

8-27-2014 Newshound Guru Breitling   After WWII did Japan and Germany have an advantage by a lower currency?  Yes Absolutely.  Why would Iraq raise their currency?  Wouldn't that take away their advantage?  They stated they wanted to make the IQD a world reserve currency and wanted their people to compete on a global scale.  Yes they needed to lower the currency…that's why we were able to buy it for a 10th of a penny…during the restructuring phase.  Why is Iraq going to raise the value of their currency?  Because it's only worth a 10th of a penny…sooner or later they have to increase it or their people will not be able to compete on the world stage.  For Iraq to get to the next stage they have to give their people purchasing power…The CBI needs the people of Iraq to have purchasing power to rebuild their infrastructure…so the people can bring home money from other countries in the region and start businesses etc…then we'll watch the country and wealth explode…it's going to be fantastic.

8-27-2014   Newshound/Intel Guru BGG    Market dropped to 1203 today - BIG FINANCIAL NEWS...puts them well within the required 2% range.    [Now it can happen at anytime, right?]  numbers wise - yes...the advertised and "market rate" can have no greater than a 2% difference and still be in compliance with IMF requirements to proceed to next status (article 8 - international acceptance).   For all practical purposes - they are there...it appears as though they are getting their financial house in order for something.

8-27-2014   Newshound/Intel Guru Arthur  The lack of this Law has also caused a possible split between Kurdistan and Baghdad which would be catastrophic for our investment.  ...the deadline for the formation of the new government is 9/11 which will hopefully include the 2014 budget which will likely come before parliament in the next phase starting 9/2, and the long awaited and much needed HCL, along with the continually ameliorating security outlook, hopefully completing the economic and political climate necessary for the CBI/PTB to begin the final phases of economic reform including the revaluation of the IQD.  [post 2 of 2]

8-27-2014 Newshound/Intel Guru Arthur

8-27-2014   Newshound/Intel Guru Arthur   We now know from the various meetings and PM Designate Abadi press conferences that the negotiations between the blocs are "positive and constructive"; especially important and positive are the ones between Baghdad and Kurdistan.  Although the seating of the COM (Council of Ministers) is an important and necessary step, the most critical element of the political and economic stability compulsory for a potential currency revaluation is the HCL (Hydrocarbon Law). There is no way for oil officials in the provinces to rationally manage their particular sectors without this understanding between politicians and their parties therefore it would be virtually impossible to begin economic reform in earnest without this crucial contract since without it there could be no fair distribution of the countries enormous wealth potential.   [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

The Kurds being handed the Ministry of Oil.... Maliki's obvious irrelevance.... Article 140 and the HCL on the front burner.... The news to day about them being close to Article 8 compliance... the list goes on.. and this statement from Shabibi can not be denied..."time is considered an important economic variable, and therefore is reduced to a primary goal."   [post 2 of 2]

8-19-2014   Intel Guru DC   [via Adept1]  Abadi continues to make great strides.  Many things have been voted on that are not public yet, that will happen with the RV.  There have been actions showing Abadi and his team are serious about including everyone, not just because they are from the right background but because they are the right people for the job. In Iraq, everyone is geared up, including security, banks, notifications, and so on.  The UN is pleased as punch that everything is coming together so rapidly. The rest of the US is very ready to go, everyone is ready to get going. If you can move what we thought was supposed to happen this weekend just a hair, then that is where we are at now.

8-19-2014   Newshound Guru Tlar   I...am convinced Maliki has left Iraq but I don't believe they will make any kind of announcement on that publicly until there is a new government in place.  So The government will be formed before we see an RV.   We are very close but it is my belief now that they will do it after the government is formed.  The government should be formed this week and maybe as soon as tomorrow.  We will not hear that Maliki left until after that and it could be for many reasons... I anticipate that to happen [the RV] within a day or two of the announcement publicly, Iraq's government is complete which could be as early as this week or this weekend.  Those of you that have watched closely can feel this coming to a close.  Those of you that don't believe or don't understand, it really makes no difference.  You have bought the ticket and you too will go on the ride.

It did not happen... So what is the hold up?  ...we are now witnessing a total reworking of the 35 ministries under the prior 8 years of Iraq government...much more “house cleaning” than originally thought necessary.  Abadi decided to reduce the number of ministries to 25 after the cancellation and merging some of them...Another cleanup he is doing in trimming their salaries...   [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

8-19-2014 Newshound Guru Kaperoni

 8-19-2014   Newshound Guru Kaperoni    The nomination of a new unified government has been hailed not only from within Iraq, but by the world community including the U.S, the UN, Europe, Iran, Saudi Arabia and many others. This new government will have its hand full trying to contain the violence and current terrorism from ISIL. But hopefully this message will take hold and work in a very positive way to force these terrorists out of Iraq.  I am very optimistic that within a few months we may see discussion move from government news to economic news and once again the restructuring of the currency.  But we must keep in mind all the work that must be done before that is truly realistic.   [post 3 of 3] [See the possible "to do list" in the Dinar Guru Resource Bar on the left of this page...]

8-19-2014   Newshound Guru Kaperoni    As for monetary reform...we still have a large hill to climb. We have clearly proven over the last few years that the many laws are stalled that have a direct impact in the economy of Iraq. That any currency reform is simply a part of the overall economic advancements including a transition to a market economy. So we must continue to wait and watch as parliament joins forces with the new government to address these laws. These laws include banking reform as well as economic reform.   [post 2 of 3....stay tuned]

Maliki at that time should leave peacefully as he stated on television yesterday.   [post 1 of 3....stay tuned]

8-15-2014   Newshound Guru Kaperoni   Article: "Maliki: relinquish the premiership in favor of Abadi to facilitate the functioning of the political process"  I am certain that Maliki would never be acting this way unless there is motivation. He pretty much dug himself in and stated he would not give up a third term.  Article:  "Failed assassination attempt on Prime Minister-designate Ahmed Haider Abadi, led by Nuri al-Maliki led to the injury of the latter injured"  Looks to me that we have a clear reason for Maliki's change of heart...he got caught!...it seems apparent that he tried to take out Abadi today which then would have kept him in power (at least for the time being). "A change of heart" does not cut the mustard when it comes to Maliki.

Iraqis are FINALLY blessed with the proper leadership. Both Masum and Abadi want and will improve the daily situation of the average Iraqi and eventually that also means being able to live on better wages and more purchasing power.

8-15-2014   Newshound Guru Tlar   THE CURRENCY:  The clock does not start with the formation of the new government as I had thought all along. The clock will start on the first verifiable news that Maliki is gone. Within 48 hours, TURKI WILL PULL THE TRIGGER. This is a currency with potential at any number they come out at. They are only producing 50% of the oil they intend to be producing by 2020, 6 short years from now. They will have solved their government problems and if they can get their act together economically, they will be the richest country in the world. Their currency should continue to increase in value over at least the next 5-6 years.   [post 2 of 2]

8-15-2014 Newshound Guru Tlar

8-15-2014   Newshound Guru Tlar    In the next 24-48 hours we should see the departure of Maliki.  Maliki had filed a lawsuit with the Supreme court as a last stand. The lawsuit is intended to stall or stop the formation of the government. The court if they do rule, will favor the citizens of Iraq. It will fall in favor of the new government. This afternoon Maliki got with his party and announced he will no longer seek the PM position. Rumor has it that he has accepted a deal. He has been granted some part of an immunity deal and has agreed to leave Iraq.  Today there was a protest in the streets of Bagdad.   [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

8-15-2014 Intel Guru Frank26

8-15-2014   Intel Guru Frank26    I am of the Mano a Mano school that believes in a 1 to 1 rate. The MoP and MoF know about 1.16/1.17 because it is derived from the program rate of 1166 via the removal of one digit.  They told the GOI in 2010 that would not work ...That they needed a rate of 3.2108 and to add 20% more to it for 2011. Then o pulled us out at the end of that year and the rate was mugged by M with his demands of Dr Shabibi and the CBI.  When M FIRED Dr S ...The rate simply went into hibernation until ...Stability and Security returned. In other words ...OUR TROOPS!!!   So, IMO, IF 1 to 1 is the 2014 budget's fundamental start then the topic of 1 or 1.16/1.17 is ready to surface Without any FEAR.

8-14-2014   Intel Guru DC   Bottom line, folks, is that things look very, very good.  It’s similar to Monday where we had concrete steps in Iraq and to push the RV out. Iraq is making credible moves forward.  Maliki has moved most of his papers out of his office and burned many of his files...Maliki is still there, but not really in play. The CBI and others have put out press statements saying they are implementing banking reforms, and the revaluation as it applies to everyone’s financial balance sheets.  They have to use the new rates to reflect the new dinar.   [some sources have been saying the Iraqi government has to be seated and stable, and until then Turki will not release the RV?]  We have a good feel for where the CBI stands, and we don’t think that’s really an issue any longer.  WE have been told to ramp up our preparations we believe this is coming out on a short timeframe.
