Popular Post Adam Montana Posted January 2, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 Happy Wednesday and HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope everyone’s holiday season was remarkable and amazing, and now we’re launching into 2019. What should we expect? That’s always the question, and I think this year is going to prove different than the last. I have a few reasons that I’ll be outlining in short order, but as always I will not be handing out rumor based opinions or making predictions. Iraq is going to do what Iraq wants to do, when they want to do it. So, here’s to an exciting 2019! It shouldn’t come as a surprise that the tail end of 2018 didn’t bring us an RV. Iraq operates on a global scale, so things that happen around the world do have an influence on them. 2018 was the worst year in the stock market since 2008. More importantly, US crude posted it’s first loss since 2015. Those are not specifically Iraq’s losses, of course, but lower oil prices affect ALL oil markets. Case in point: Combine that with a general lack of news regarding the HCL and we have an obvious situation where they would not pull the trigger. We'd all like to think that Iraq can pull off an RV with lower oil prices, but the current market needs to change for Iraq and everyone else to be confident. It will happen, of course. But this doesn't look like the week for it. Not that I'm discouraged at all! The current market is a temporary thing. Nothing negative has happened to scare us from the future of this venture. And I don't think anything has changed to make Iraq no longer want to regain their former position of power and influence. It will happen. The question is only "when"?

As I understand the government needs to be fully seated before an oil law can be officially passed. I believe that the positions of Education Minister and Displaced People’s Minister were recently appointed. How many more positions are there to seat in the GOI? How many positions are normally filled for this governmental system when it has been working in the past? Pete A bullet point list is a good idea. I'll put that on my list. If anyone else wants to contribute while I'm getting mine together - feel free! That's one of the best parts of this community.

The President being friendly with Iraq certainly isn't a bad thing! On 12/31/2018 at 9:47 AM, bkeiller said: Happy New Year to you, Chief! Q1) Is this news the opening of the gates for Iraqi brokers to buy and sell international currencies? https://cbi.iq/news/view/952 Q2) And, if so, is this another step towards the Iraqi dinar becoming international? Q3) Is it time for a smooth whisky/whiskey? Cheers! 1. I don't have my translator, so I'm not sure. (Google translate shows me it's the "cancelation of uncles" ) 2. 3. When is it not!?

What are your indicators to show it will be passed?...if any?....Banking News coming out of Iraq is so encouraging..... Happy New Year to you and your family and the DV players behind the Scene..... Any real chance - absolutely! But I think it will be delayed until there is a solid swing in the oil market. 2 hours ago, coorslite21 said: Happy New Year........How was it for you?........any special moments you wish to share? 2019 forecast for the World of Blockchain/Cryptocurrencies? Please share your thoughts....... Thanks........CL My New Year was amazing, thank you my friend! I hope yours was as well Blockchain should continue to strengthen in use and acceptance. It should follow suit that prices will rise accordingly. Fingers crossed there, because it sure would be nice to get back into making good money on cryptos! 2 hours ago, Laid Back said: Good day Sir, Since I have been on this investment (10years) the dinar rate is moving in the wrong direction (Devaluation) from 1166 - 1182 - 1190 - Inflation is +/-2%. - Foreign currency reserve growing $62 billion dollars - Gold reserves 96.5 Tons - removed from UN sanctions - removed from AML/ CFT list - security - stability We know in the last 4 years the situation in iraq has been improving ... Why the dinar is devaluing? Thanks in advance. Ahh, buddy, I don't think we're seeing anything to worry about. A change from 1166 to 1190 is miniscule and barely worth noting. Many of your other points are actually positive! I think we are going in a good direction. That's all for me at the moment, everyone! May 2019 bring us all love, luck, and good fortune. GOOOO RRRRVVVVVVVV!!!! - Adam Oh! Don't forget the powerball pool! 2 4 1 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synopsis Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 Happy New Year, Adam, AND Thank You For The Grounded Post!!! Here is a list I think could apply: Nouri al-Maliki taken out of action. Remaining Cabinet Ministries passed through the Bicraqi Iraqi Parliament. Remaining HCL being passed and published in the Gazette. Could be just activating what is already in place for the Bicraqi Iraqi to get their cut. Formal announcement of Article 140 application/implementation. Crude Oil Prices/Future to reach a critical threshold (whatever THAT is). Repatriation of at least some of the Bicraqi Iraqi pilfered funds abroad. The corrupt week day CBI daily currency auctions stopped. Possibly to terminate the Insanians source of income. Announcement of withdrawal of Insanian militias and commanders, like Qasem Soleimani (if not given a dirt nap first), from Iraq. With Iran crippled and becoming more crippled economically with the sanctions, the Insanians may have to concede their presence in Iraq especially with the potential long range missiles Iran likely now has in Iraq (easy targets for Israel and/or The United States???!!!). In The Mean Time............................................................................................ Happy New Year ALL DinarVets...................................................................... AND (of course)............................................................................................... Go Moola Nova (YEAH AND YEE HAW, BABY, READY WHEN YOU ARE BROTHER (OR SISTER) - LET 'ER BUCK!!!)!!! 1 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rochester Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 Curious thing: I was on "Open Mind" on you-tube, a live meeting of President Trump and his cabinet, today, January 2,on a wide range of topics. When the topic of dealing with Kurdistan came up, the picture and sound went dead, on my end. Maybe it's nothing....or maybe they wanted to pull the plug, for a reason. Who knows? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a list I think could apply: Nouri al-Maliki taken out of action. - I don't see him going anywhere soon, but I place less importance on his influence.

Remaining HCL being passed and published in the Gazette. Could be just activating what is already in place for the Bicraqi Iraqi to get their cut. - I agree that it could be just an "activation". There is very little left to do. Formal announcement of Article 140 application/implementation. - Crude Oil Prices/Future to reach a critical threshold (whatever THAT is). - $55 is what I'm looking for, with $60 being in the red zone. Repatriation of at least some of the Bicraqi Iraqi pilfered funds abroad. - This, or a little time for the sting to go away. Either way, it's a matter of a short wait at this time. The corrupt week day CBI daily currency auctions stopped. Possibly to terminate the Insanians source of income. - Disagree that the auctions need to be stopped. A revaluation is actually going to make the auctions even more crazy, but it won't matter to us at that point.

Adam Montana Posted January 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 I just saw that my comments got hidden by the system.
