5-20-2013 *Arthur ~MY KURD CONTACT IS TELLING ME THIS MORNING THAT AN ENTIRE DELEGATION OF WASHINGTON OFFICIALS HAVE LANDED IN IRAQ. THEY WERE TOLD ANOTHER LARGE IS ON THE WAY. THEY WERE TOLD THAT THEY ARE THERE TO IMPLEMENT THE STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK AGREEMENT AND TO SUPPORT DEMOCRATIC AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN IRAQ. LOOKS LIKE TO US SOMETHING IS HAPPENING. WE WILL KEEP AN EYE ON THIS DEVELOPMENT AND REPORT OUR FINDINGS.
5-20-2013 *SWFloridaGuy ~This has everything to do with Iraq...That is not to say that they are not receiving a lot of help and instruction from powerful entities like the IMF, World Bank, U.S., powerful corporations. Of course they are but if you know anything about currency reform and revaluations in particular, stability is absolutely key and if the conditions are not right the country will fall apart. The CBI's plan (whatever that may be) has been in the works for over a decade and they are not going to compromise its success because the GOI hasn't formed a fully functioning power-sharing government with permanent (not interim) ministers appointed, in addition to having implemented HCL/Article 140 (which they have been making real progress towards of late), and investment laws passed prior. I believe this has always been a team effort and not solely in Iraq's hands or out. Corporations, foreign governments, banks and powerful organizations have all aided in Iraq's reconstruction and invested heavily into sector growth because they also see Iraq's potential. So, does the country of Iraq have anything to do with their own currency? Of course they do...Iraq has received a lot of help to get to where they are today and I believe that they will continue to because those same corporations, foreign governments, banks and powerful organizations all want to exploit Iraq's wealth and natural resources. That's all the more reason to protect their investment and ensure that its success won't be hampered by a dilapidated government.
5-20-2013 *Stryker ~The news has been interesting to say the least...They are saying that the most important laws are ready to be heard by Parliament when they reconvene next month, ongoing bilateral relations between Baghdad and Kuwait to end Chapter VII and many other forward moving parts being enacted as we all type at each other. Things always look the worst before they get better, call it wishful thinking or call it historically correct, either way I like the few positive pieces that we are getting right now.
5-20-2013 *Flashing ~AGAIN FACTS ARE OUT THERE AND YES, THEY ARE GREAT.
5-20-2013 *TD ~On Tuesday Iraq will vote on the RV. I'm told it will pass, that leaves the US and I'm told they attend good to go as well. That leaves only China and chances I'm told are better than 60/70 percent I was told today from our PTB that you can expect this to occur from Wednesday / June 1st .
5-20-2013 *Duckyboy ~I have contacts in Iraq, both in southern Iraq and in Kurdistan. They both don't see any revalue happening before the GOI is a little more stable. Yes, they both see news segments discussing the IQD and it's value, but they have seen no "instructional" pieces, like Delta has been stating. Plus and I know it's a surprise!!!! There has been no "in-country" RV or RV in Europe. It will all happen at once. This is the only possibility.
5-20-2013 *TerryK ~IT'S STILL A SOLID GO TO HAPPEN AT ANY MOMENT. THINGS WERE DONE...TO ENSURE THAT THE BAD GUYS ARE OUT OF THE PICTURE. THE DONG IS TO GO AT 2.20 AS WE HEARD. THE DINAR IS STILL WHAT IM HEARING AT 11.68. IM HEARING THAT THE NEXT 24-48 HOURS ARE OUR WINDOW AND ALOT OF THE BIG PLAYERS ARE HAPPY TODAY. [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
5-20-2013 *Bluwolf ~I just came to say that we are still looking good, no holdups...for the record, ex.or. 13303 has been extended, it is out of Iraqs hands, the rates of all 204 countries are in and loaded, all banks have been briefed and are now ready and on alert...the rate is high and a very good one.
5-20-2013 *Tlar ~I invested in the Iraqi dinar because I felt that it is a good long term bet. Iraq has the best potential of any currency play available at the time I invested and today, it still is. Any long term investment has an element of risk associated with it. The higher the risk it should yield, the greater the reward. Although we all hoped it would be over quickly, it has not happened. Iraq is a country with real people trying to get their act together. If we wish to be a witness to the day today action in Iraq and take on the frustrations of it's people, then we must become strong enough not to invest our emotions with our money. Iraq will come of age.
5-20-2013 *TerryK ~I HEARD THAT WF HAS HAD IT FOR DAYS. I HAVE THREE VP FRIENDS AT WF AND THEY HAVE ALL TOLD ME THEY CAN SEE IT BUT ITS NOT RELEASED. I FEEL WONDERFUL ABOUT WED NIGHT. WE ARE THERE PEEPS. ON A CALL NOW WITH SOURCE, WOW. IM TELLING YOU THIS IS IT HAS TO BE FOR WHAT IM BEING TOLD AND 7 ARTICLES JUST SENT TO ME, OMG.
5-21-2013 *Delta ~I think we're going to have a 1 to 1 .. I don't think they're going to have a $3 or $4 even though I know they can support that. They're going to come out with a sucker rate. They're doing that right now. If you put all the resources together, the oiil the gold, all the resources together.. right now they can support about $4.00. They cannot go higher than Kuwaiti currency. They're going to come up to $3.70, $3.80 , maybe $4.00. That's the max I can see it. Because they have to be like Kuwait, all around. Maybe in long while, like in 2 years, see $3.86. it's all in the hands of the US the IMF and all those countries, and anything could happen. But for me, in my opinion, they don't want to come that high.
5-21-2013 *Frank26 ~Dr. Shabibi, The Finance Minister, and the US of America are literally controlling the country, from within! It's not Maliki it's not the government of Iraq. It's these 3. Maliki is offering these sit-in protesters money! It turns out that these tribal leaders of these sit-in people have accepted Maliki's money. They're spreading it among the people. And they told the people, "you've got 72 hours to stop the sit ins", so we can clear the check. And I love the fact that they're going to move and the American troops are coming in. And now... NOW let me see a delay.
5-21-2013 *Eagle1 ~I've been getting reports out of Baghdad. And I've been getting reports from other parts of the world, that say this thing is READY TO POP! I had a conversation with a gentlemen with the State Department based in Baghdad, and he made the observation to me that he had heard.. and I don't know how credible it is, and I don't think he does either.. that we were going to see the rate come out at $1.00 , maybe $1.17 , and it's going to be a dirty float. And it was going to be allowed to float pretty freely until it climbed pretty rapidly so some nations could pay off some debts. It would be clamped down on, and brought down to something in the mid-$4.00 range.
