"

He explained that "after the exchange rate depreciates because of regional factors and internal, we have an amendment to the value of the exchange, on the grounds that the nominal value, estimated at 1170 dinars Iraqis against the U.S. dollar, is much lower than the real price, so felt the central bank raising the dinar exchange rate, to suit with its true value ", in the past to say," We expect every opportunity to raise the favorable exchange rate, with no effect on maintaining the stability of the currency, as it reflects the entry of citizens, we are forced to support the form in which the benefit. "

The Central Bank of Iraq, announced to raise the price of the Iraqi dinar against the dollar during the sessions for the sale and purchase of foreign currency by 4 dinars, and by 3.4%, up to 1166 instead of 1170 dinars, in front of the dollar, stressing that the decision would affect the exchange rates the dinar against the dollar in the Iraqi market. And on the expectations of international high exchange rate of Iraqi dinar to 100 percent, said the central bank adviser said that "this work of speculators looking for a profit anywhere in the world, and their words are not credible, and what concerns us is the interest of the Iraqi economy," adding that "the dinar has attracted by the force of bank reserves, which is covered by 100 percent.

So it appears, 1150.

So what happened to all the talk about making the Dinar the strongest currency in the region ? Have you noticed that they haven't said that lately ? With that said I don't think by raising the Dinar by .34% makes it the strongest in the region, thanks for the post Carrello.

But Tony the next stop is 1150, which will read on the CBI site, thats how I read this. Out of curiousity wat would 3.4%

be from 1170? Im not good at math.

Thanks for the edit. I won't bother re-quoting that then.

So, the next move to 1150?

You know. It took 3 years for the Dinar to go to 1166. In 3 more years it'll be at 1162 and 3 more years after that it'll be 1158 and by the year 2525 it should be where it's supposed to be. Just saying. Go RV

But hey they said the dinar would never RV, who cares if its test or not they did. So there is another test, our shoe box's become more valuable. Now I am not sure what to think because they also mentioned 1117 in an article, that would be a bigger test.

As fnbplanet pointed out Friday, the rate is not 3.4%, it's .34%

1166/1170=0.996581197

take that number and subtract from 1 = 0.003418803

move the decimal point two = 0.34%

*******

3.4 percent% = 39.78 dinar

1170 * 0.034 ( 3.4 %) = 39.78

New rate of 1130.22

1170 minus 39.78 = 1130.22

bada bing!

Until we see if they really make another move to 1150, 1117 or a full blown rv it's all speculation.

I know the 0.34 percent, but why do they keep making the same mistake? I am just wondering what 3.4%, what if that is where they are headed? I know, I know probably not, but I wonder.

Sorry, Zig. I should have reversed my input. I was addressing your question about what 3.4% was:

3.4 percent% = 39.78 dinar

1170 * 0.034 ( 3.4 %) = 39.78

New rate of 1130.22
