amal Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Looking back at the auction histories it seems like most years there is an extra day right around now where there was no auction? One year Jan 30th then the 31st then Feb1st. Is it possible that today is a holy day or something and most bank branches are closed? Just guessing here.

yota691 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 yota, this is my first thought also but I've not had my first cup of coffee either. Unless they ran out of USD petrodollars which doesn't make since.....Coffee's ready...be right back.. You reckon the word is out? Just a thought Central Bank announced it had begun to study the need of the project to delete the zeros to submit a bill to the House of Representatives for the purpose of its own legislation, setting out the mechanisms and controls the process of removing three zeroes from the local currency, stressing that its law gives him the powers of a change in their local currency. Maybe they told a Family Member an that one told another, and another, another, and another. An now they don't want to swap it out. Just a thought.

Sun Devil Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 For some strange reason the auction numbers are the first thing I want to see when I wake up every day. Been doing it for months and I guess I'm always looking for some kind of a trend to tell me something but it never really does. LOL..... But this number today is eye-popping. There HAS TO BE something to this. You don't just go from $200million a day for weeks and months down to $3 thousand in one day. Based on the posts by the likes of Sonny1 and Nawty about drying up the money supply I gotta believe this is a gigantic "wink wink" from the CBI. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40oz Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 I do not know what this means if anything BUT.................Seeing how it is cold and rainy here with nothing green to look at, I will be going on leave in 22 days, I have nothing else to hope for and I am in a good mood anyway, I think I will try a small practice Dance of Joy. Nobody watch Maybe......Just MAYBE.....well as long as there is some shred of hope......Did I mention I am going on leave in 22 days? Just think, if an RV was imminent, a few of us could have covered that auction. Some of us the taxes due could have covered that auction. Am I getting silly now? Anyway. I will not be in one of the stan countries in 22 days, with a real bed, real food served on a real plate with real cutlery to eat it with and some adult beverages. Let me say this before I go on my previously mentioned first leave in 11 months, I really appreciate all you guys and gals on these forums. It helps keep my sanity. Please...be excellent to each other. :lol: Thanks for your service bud. I wish you could be headed home for good. Stay safe out there. I'd buy you a cold one if I could!

GasCan Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 nawty1, on 30 January 2012 - 08:59 AM, said: there are 2 things they almost need to do to stop this. first: stop the auctions, if they stop the auctions they reduce the risk of money landing in the wrong hands. second: they need to revalue the rate of exchange, if they stop the auctions, which they will have to do soon, until a new rate is high enough that the corrupt will not find it attractive enough to purchase anymore. they need to revalue for purchasing power, there purchasing power for an oil rich country is sad at best. then when the rate is too high for these corrupt to buy, they will start auctions, and interbank trading again. lotsofdinar asked why would they announce a rv before an actual rv, well if they are not printing dinar anymore, which you would have to believe since they are buying it back, then announcing this would not be a big deal, they know how much dinar will be out, and how much they will be on the hook for. even if some sell there personal dinar, it doesn't get back to iraq, it goes from one speculator to another, so cbi can't count on getting the u.s dinar holders dinar back to the cbi. if iraq is truly done printing the dinar we currently own, them telling us there intentions isn't a big deal at all.
