Rmc10 Posted April 10, 2018 Report Share Posted April 10, 2018 Navira was saying the auctions are going to get lower and lower. I hope he is right. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
navira45 Posted April 11, 2018 Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 Rmc10, this auction will get lowered to a point where the dinar rate increases in value as there will be less demand for the dollar...and as result the lower notes will be introduced...the citizens will come forward to exchange or deposit their higher notes. Watch what's happening with the Iranian riyal currency, it decreases in value because people are demanding dollars and other currencies. Iran will stop using dollar for trading and be replaced for euro instead....and when this happens the iqd rate will increase due to less demand for dollar in the market...just wait and see. This is the month I tell you. 1 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say this in a positive way and not condensing at all. Just curious is all as are a number of different folks here. pp 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bakken Posted April 11, 2018 Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 Sales go down and sales go up. I don't think we have anything to get excited about or anything to worry about. Like I said sales go up and down, up and down all the time. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're all just guessing here and (Disclaimer: I'm no economist). My understanding is the auctions are to convert IQD to USD for international payments because nobody will take IQD. And like BAKKEN says, sale go up and down and up and down. Nothing to get excited about here. So, for example, were Italy to take IQD in payment for a shipload of olive oil, the IQD needs to be an accepted international currency and have value. IMF and world bodies have to ensure to Italy, they would get IQD payment and convert it to Euro or currency of choice. Everybody's happy then. Until the CBI, IMF, UST and GOI say 'go' we sit and wait. But I think all the indicators are, it is close. As far as lower denomination bills, why release a 1, 5, 10, 20 IQD if they are less value than USD 1, 5, 10 and 20. Yes, 1:1 conversion would make sense. So....stepping down from my soap box now. JMHO. 1 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
