salt-life Posted January 12, 2016 Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 (edited) 1250 is the street rate and it is definitely going the wrong way. Totally agree............with all the talk of the exchange rate it is putting a huge amount of pressure on the GOI and CBI......something has to give......get rid of corruption, auctions, impliment the budget, go single window, tarriffs and pop the exchange rate to 1-1....will work fine for us all Edited January 12, 2016 by salt-life 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olivesman Posted January 12, 2016 Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 CHILL. CBI site still says 1180. Nuff said. (Though it could be the wave receding before the CRASH...) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synopsis Posted January 12, 2016 Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 I agree with Laid Back. To me, this indicates an increasing push to pull all of the old dinars off the streets and replace them with dollars. With the slowly declining exchange rate, the locals may want to be rid of all the old dinars sooner than later. I suspect Iraq will RI/RV when the desired amount of old notes are pulled in and simultaneously introduce the new and lower denomination dinars. The increase in value of the dinar will then help pull all the dollars out of circulation (will take more dollars to get a dinar) so the locals will want to rid themselves of the US dollars as soon as possible. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebra0101 Posted January 12, 2016 Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 It's 1089.99 on my XE currency app. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synopsis Posted January 12, 2016 Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 Zebra0101 - I have been tracking the IQD/USD exchange rate for some time on xe.com. Lately, the high has been 1,106.37 IQD = 1 USD. The low today I saw was 1,089.00 IQD = 1 USD. Looks like the low has been slowly reduced by 1.00 IQD each day (approximately) on xe.com. An approximate 2% spread on xe.com implies a high of 1,106.37 IQD = 1 USD and a low of 1,084.24 IQD = 1 USD. Maybe of interest, the low of 1,084.00 IQD = 1 USD could occur on or about the 19th of January when the Iraqi Parliament is back in session after their holiday. Not sure if this means anything, but here's hoping that January 19 or there abouts will be the day we have all been waiting for! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with you Synopsis. I see this as a CBI strategy to reduce the note count. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theseus Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 Based on the IMF report, if a RV were to occur, there would have to be at minimum two quarterly reviews. The first review would happen after March 2016. The second would happen after June 2016. So any chance of RV wouldn't happen until at least October 2016, provided no further reviews are needed. So basically an RV will not transpire this year. The IMF is basing the rate at 1,180 ID per USD on the CBI rate set November 10, 2015. This will be the program rate for the ID until after the IMF has completed all their reviews. Sit back, relax and remain vigilant until October 2016 when, once again, they have to deal with the budget. Hopefully they will meet all the goals set forth by the IMF and can at least RV sometime in 2017. This is all in Iraq's hands and we just need to watch wait and see. Al other rates are bogus. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all are hoping for a change before October. Those of us who have been here for years are used to waiting. It is what it is and will happen when they're ready and all we can do is hang in there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gave you an emerald to even you out. People are getting really uptight because of the economy, and yet they still put the same kind of loud mouthed idiots in power. But I digress, As per my own predictions for 2016 I have also stated that,"if there's to be an RV it wont happen until mid to late Sep. And the IMF report that you're referring to clearly makes that the case. 2016 predictions, 1. If there's to be an RV it wont occur until mid to late Sep. 2. You will see a large increase in earthquake activity. 3. Massive sever weather causing trillions in damages and thousands of deaths. 4. The rise of Islamist in America and with that the rise in what they do. 5. The beginnings of economic breakdown in America and the EU. 6. The first woman President of the United States. 7. Social breakdown around the world, causing massive riots and the need for martial law. 8. Massive wildfires that are man caused. 9. The rise of Ebola and other uncontrollable diseases. 10. The blatant and outward hatred of anything that has to do with Evangelical Christianity. As the world enters into this next phase you will see people everywhere openly attacking Christians, blaming them for the sufferings of everyone.

SocalDinar Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 The Central Bank shows the MKT rate at 1243. It's up ( value down ) 19 pips on the year. Probably expected when they adjusted the rate 12 pips up to 1182 Thanks for the article Yota http://cbi.iq/documents/C.B.I.%20FOREIGN%20EXCHANGE.pdf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will do the same internationally, I believe they will come out at 1-1 for two reasons 1) It will not confuse the Iraqis 2) a lot of people will currency exchange Then it will advance to the pre war value or even a hair higher than Kuwaitt just because their shoe throwing culture will require it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
