Quotes: "The Central Bank of Iraq announced in a statement Dec. 19 the devaluation of the Iraqi dinar to 1,450 to help reduce the country’s fiscal deficit in the state budget for 2021 from 70 trillion to nearly 30 trillion dinars."; "Simultaneously, Iraqi banks have undertaken additional measures to optimize the Iraqi economy. In the past weeks, government banks intensified calls for citizens to deposit their money in their bank branches instead of hoarding it at home." ...here it is in black and white in the news, in your face. It is what I have told you as to one of the reasons why the devaluation of the dinar. Do you believe me now what they are doing? *** Petra All accounts and all budgets since 2017 are now current. We're talking about the 2017 FML, 2020 budget. What's in the the 2020 budget? The new rate. That's why we're so excited. All these pieces and parts are coming together...this is all coming together to a point and there's much more coming... *** Walkingstick & Frank26 Respect the first 2 weeks of January in order to expect a second change in the rate of the Iraqi dinar. But this time it will be higher. Not lower...they have pumped up the dollar into the markets of Iraq while collecting as many 3-zero notes as possible during this 1450 rate. They kill 2 birds with one stone. They collected the 3-zeros and they invested internationally at a rate that was more advantageous to them. Brilliant...

I'm gonna go ahead myself and make the assumption there's going to be a move to help strengthen the value of the Iraqi dinar. I like this when I saw this...Iraq is taking big steps to get back on track...This is good news...this is great news...I see they are going to include the dinar. This is what we want to see...this is a good step...a really good thing...Another major sign that the value of the dinar is going to go up... *** Frank26 [Q? : What do you mean they lowered the price of the Iraqi dinar?] Well they did. That's impossible, they said they were going to raise it. It's the China syndrome. China said the same thing back in 1995. 'We are not going to raise the value of our currency.' So did Kuwait. They said the same thing. But 3 days later China changed the value of their currency. They didn't want anyone to take advantage of them...The Iraqi dinar went down in value inside the country of Iraq...but now as of January 1st IMO they got a new rate...they are trying to tell you they don't have a program rate anymore...

They're simply stating their opinions based on what they perceive to be happening in Iraq. RON *** Jeff *** I know there were a fair amount of people that were hopeful that the rate would change December/January because they were under the impression that Iraq's fiscal year was started January 1st. We haven't seen the rate change yet...On December 20th they devalued the currency. If they had plans to change the rate in January, devaluing the currency at the end of December would not have served a purpose...the reason why they devalued the currency on December 20th was because they need 90 days to reduce the dinar note count and squeeze more dinar out of the citizens. They need 90 days to do that...Iraq's fiscal year starts April 1st (??? refuted)... *** Mnt Goat *** Article: "PARLIAMENTARY FINANCE: RAISING THE PRICE OF THE DOLLAR WAS DIRECTED BY THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND AND THE WORLD BANK AND WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF POLITICAL BLOCS, NOT THE GOVERNMENT." the devaluation is a temporary solution, if you can even call it that. It will blow up in their faces, if they don’t now do the project to delete the zeros and reinstate. There is no turning back…

RON Mnt Goat Article: "ECONOMIST CALLS FOR THE REMOVAL OF THE THREE ZEROS FROM THE DINAR TO STRENGTHEN THE LOCAL CURRENCY" So we have been waiting for articles like this. Notice we have not see any “direct” article talking about this subject of “deleting the zeros” for a long time. Now they finally are telling us this may be a solution to getting out of the mess they are in. MilitiaMan They are now telling us...that they are de dollarizing and will be heading to use digital dollars in the future for tracking...Transparency. ...Well if we look at the Auctions lately and even today, proves they show us a massive change of late and that supports scarcity is upon Iraq now for the USD. imo. A necessity of the IMF on Iraq ...They will need to cease the use of the USD as we know it. The future will be very different and it will curb corruption.. So, be patient and hopeful as there is no need to be worried or upset for that the devalue sets the stage for a revalue.. imo... That's all for today folks ... Blessings ... RON

RON *** Pimpy *** Article: "An advisor in the central bank determines its orientations regarding the exchange rate and the possibility of changing it again" ...technically what they said [before] was they would only devalue the dinar one time not change the rate...I thought this devaluing of the dinar was only a short-term thing. It just didn't make sense to me especially since they had so much building to do and how it disproportionately affected the poor. So now it looks like there's already going to be pressure on them to go ahead and decrease the rate so the value goes back up for dinar holders... That's it for tonight ... Blessings ... RON

More data to support they are gearing to go out to external markets with and international exchange rate. They are moving to an external debt source of financing in where it creates more investments and creates more jobs for SMEs. By doing so it will support the new market economy and with a better likelihood to be successful in doing so. Iraq has plenty of youths to fit the model.. imo This looks very good.. "Prices that return to normal?" Would that imply they are about ready to go back to the glory days? They say they are going to delete the three zeros from the exchange rate or at least change it during this fiscal year. They also tell us the Dinar is to converge with the Dollar, too. 1:1 in country. imo! *** Footforward [Q? : Is the HCL going to finally be implemented and made law!..] that and article 140 should go hand in hand.

But there's been some changes happening on the open market over there within Iraq. They're saying it's mostly due to speculation of a rate change especially now that they're talking about it...

Doors will be busted down. *** Jeff In the year 2020 Iraq got released from all the sanctions and naughty lists. At this time Iraq is no longer under any kind of restrictions or sanctions.

There's only one thing...that needs and requires the exchange rate. It's a reform payment for the funding of the reforms...And we know they have to make that payment by the end of March...that means they also have to change the rate by the end of March...

They are late already paying our November’s. Okay so why would the IMF all of sudden change its mind and decide to loan Iraq money? They just told us 6 months ago there was a moratorium on loaning any money to Iraq . So, what has changed? I will tell you...it was the fact that Iraq presented the “white paper” and the second major reform on it is the project to delete the zeros...by completing this project it leads to the reinstatement we are looking for. ...this article is yet another indication that the reinstatement is much sooner than later. *** Pimpy ...the deletion of the zeros what that means is devaluing the currency the Iraqi dinar. Which is not the same as deleting the zeros off the rate. That's different. I'm talking about deleting the zeros off the dinar. So what happens is 1000 dinar becomes 1 dinar...that doesn't help Iraq at all...There's a lot of back and forth about this...you've got one person talking about they need to delete off the exchange rate, which we love and support that of course because that's good for us. But the deletion off the currency is not good...just be happy that they're talking about it...we want to see what they do not what they say...

Who better knows they are under Article 14 and cannot transact internationally...unless? So why make this commitment of investment? It's a rhetorical question!

I am told the plan is to change the value by an Revalue or reinstatement. After there is a change in value – then they redenominate…meaning they release their lower denomination bills...If they do a reinstatement my understanding is they go back to their original rate and figure in consumer pricing, and inflation…so I believe the old rate was $3.22. So adding in a bit more for inflation gives you a rough idea what the street rate will be.
