This is great! Hope they buy more gold.....covert those dollars into gold and hopefully increase value of the dinar. This limit of dollar sales in CBI is a good thing just so they can use those dollars to buy more gold or others to diversify their investments.....and yes, it is good for dinar to increase in value....won't be long now. Gotta keep that hope alive.

I believe also that the ceiling on dollars in the auction is a way to make headway for new currency to come out and as that article suggests delete those zeros from iraqi currency....love it.

Mr unlikely, the 48 tonnes of gold is what they bought from last year. You are right but the numbers u come up with are results of how much they have already bought....I'm pretty sure they have more than 90 tonnes of gold reserve

Navira I agree. I think they don't give a clear picture on purpose. Last I read malikis son was still in custody in Lebanon. I'm thinking soon iraq will be able to add that 200 mill to the pile, or back to the pile. I know there were articles stating they bought around 60 tons last year.

POSTED LAST WEEK ! IN DINAR Q'S & A'S

 

 

This right here was not a part of last weeks gold thread ......................It is believed a member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee MP Ahmed Rasheed flesh to buy this amount of gold may be used by the central bank as a cover for the new currency, which purports Bank issued and is also used as a cover for the process of deletion of zeros from the Iraqi currency. Rashid pointed to the current financial situation does not encourage the purchase of larger quantities of gold material.

 

As Blueskyline has pointed out, last week's Gold thread didn't have the MP saying the Gold was for supporting the "New Currency" and "deletion of zeros' which I highlighted in blue and red..  See Yota's post above. :twothumbs:

This is freaky deaky.

I believe they had some 35 metric tons before this purchase giving somewhere in the

neighborhood of 90 metric tons. With one ton worth $37,765,432.00 ×90=$3,398,888,880

And that's not even mentioning the nearly 100billion dollars in cash this bank has.

Is it really hard to believe they could re-instate the dinar. $3.22.

I'd bet good money that the Federal Reserve doesn't have nearly that much.

Two items that also have my attention in this article ...........Saleh pointed out that gold typically constitute 6% of central bank reserves of hard currency, noting that "48 tonnes of gold at the moment, a gold in the bank the amount is sufficient and commensurate with the hard currency reserves." (48 tonnes of gold at the moment "..."the amount is sufficient"..."and commensurate with hard currency reserves" ).....and .....( Rashid pointed to the current financial situation does not encourage the purchase of larger quantities of gold material.).. To me it reads like they have finally gathered enough gold and do not need anymore at this time
