KWA73 Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 I came across this about the Kuwait dinar on Wikipedia, I was just curious about the re-Val of kwd and gave me hope on on the Iqd. Not ment to be a rumor or news, just something that raised confidence in our investment. From March 18, 1975 to January 4, 2003 the dinar was pegged to a weighted currency basket. From January 5, 2003 until May 20, 2007, the pegging was switched to 1 U.S. dollar = 0.29963 dinar with margins of ±3.5%.[5] The central rate translates to approximately 1 dinar = 3.33745 dollars. From June 16, 2007, the Kuwaiti dinar was re-pegged to a basket of currencies,[6] and is now worth about US$3.609 (€2.686). It is the world's highest-valued currency unit. But if you notice the basket of currencies, Iqd is on the list. Also, it was on Wikipedia, so take it for what it is... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuwaiti_dinar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may want to double-check, but I think that is why. I don't believe that it has anything to do with the anticipated RV for the IQD. JMHO. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
