 The  exchange rates of the dollar against the Iraqi dinar rose , on Sunday, to record levels, reaching 1525
dinars against the dollar in the local markets, despite the government's assurances that it would continue to follow the
exchange rates to maintain the price of the dollar. Today, the exchange
shops traded the
price of the dollar at $1525 per dollar, in a new decline in the value of the
Iraqi dinar , a price the dollar has not reached for nearly 14 years, while government sources talked about
future steps with the aim of controlling the price of the local market.
A
government official said in an interview with “Mawazine News” that “the rise of the dollar is a result of market speculation
and rumors of a new price rise, and this type made the citizen in a state of confusion because of hoarding the
dollar in homes, in addition to the transfer of money from the dinar to many people.

official
on the government's measures adds , "The central bank will follow a plan in the coming days, by
suspending the license of exchange shops that manipulate the price, in addition to forming
price control committees ."
He pointed out,
"The government's policy is clear, which is to maintain the price of the dollar, and what is happening is not a
dollar shortage crisis , but rather speculation in the market only."
The prices
of consumables have risen in the Iraqi market, for example, mobile recharge cards, some stores, have
raised their price. Dealers are also talking about the imminent rise in consumer prices, and this

So is this really the Doom and Gloom zeffy has been hinting at.....It will be Years before Iraq revalues.

 

(note to self and others) zeffy has claimed God put it on his Heart, his sister, Then this needed to be done and it was over....zeffy got caught with his false claims so many times now he has done a 180 but should you get down over what he is claiming he will buy your IQD or you have the option to pay him for the In Depth Truth of the Matter like he know any more or knowledge than the folks here.

 

Or is the the Shock and Awe part to scare the Iraqi People into exchanging the larger 3 Zero notes for USD?

 

Just my opinion and I know all to well the PTB in Iraq (or for that matter anywhere else) They have come way to far to start dropping back into the Dark Ages.......GE and Mega Watt Power Plants, Siemens, Deawoo and the Grande Port of Faw, $100 million dollar Steel Mill....just today two of their tankers are cleared and certified to Fly the Iraqi Flag rather than being registered as Jordanian Ships....How can one not see the progress being made to move Iraqi into this as someone here called it the 4th Industrial Revolution, Yota posted Video of High Rises, Iraq has plans for 5 Major Industrial cities....Iraq wants to be the Central hub of the Middle East......With a Currency that is worth less than an Empty Recycled Beer Can.....Something just isn't right

 

Just like Epstein didn't kill himself and no way did sleep joe biden win a far election at 3 AM after the polls had closed.

 Baghdad: Ali Mowaffaq
 
The rise in the exchange rate of the dollar again led to a second wave of food price hikes in the wholesale and retail markets in Baghdad, at a time when the Parliamentary Committee on Economy and Investment and an economist called for urgent government intervention to control prices. Al-Kifah and Al-Harithiya Central Stock Exchange in Baghdad recorded 149,600 dinars for 100 US dollars, while selling prices in banking shops in the local markets in Baghdad stabilized at 150 thousand dinars, and buying prices at 149 thousand dinars per 100 US dollars. A group of wholesalers in Shorja al-Bayaa told Al-Sabah: "Most of the food prices are directly affected by the rise in the price of the dollar in the market, given that these materials come through imports and therefore their bills are paid in dollars."
The dollar's rise is not the first of its kind, but it is the highest, compared to the past period, and the markets and commercial centers are almost devoid of shoppers, due to the economic confusion from the new rise in food prices and others.
In turn, citizens in Baghdad complained about the high prices of materials, stressing that the impact of the high dollar exchange rate was strong on them, in light of the weak control over the markets as well.

A second wave of price hikes amid calls for urgent government action

The rise in the exchange rate of the dollar again led to a second wave of food price hikes in the wholesale and retail markets in Baghdad, at a time when the Parliamentary Committee on Economy and Investment and an economist called for urgent government intervention to control prices.
Al-Kifah and Al-Harithiya Central Stock Exchange in Baghdad recorded 149,600 dinars, compared to 100 US dollars, while selling prices in money exchange shops in the local markets in Baghdad stabilized at 150 thousand dinars, and purchase prices at 149 thousand dinars per 100 US dollars. Shorja al-Bayaa told “Al-Sabah”: “Most food prices are directly affected by the rise in the price of the dollar in the market, given that these materials come through imports and therefore their bills are paid in dollars.”
The rise of the dollar is not the first of its kind, but it is the highest, compared to the past period, and the markets and commercial centers are almost devoid of shoppers, due to the economic confusion from the new rise in food prices and others. The rise in the exchange rate of the dollar was strong on them, in light of the weak control over the markets as well. They added to “Al-Sabah” that they were affected by the rise in the price of the dollar twice, the first by decreasing the value of their salaries and the second by the increase in prices in the market, so the concerned government agencies must take the necessary measures to reduce the impact this crisis.
They stressed that the ration materials are not completely disbursed monthly and come intermittently, and therefore this matter affects them, as they are forced to buy some materials from local markets until they are distributed. The Council of Ministers decided in its last session held last week that the Ministry of Finance allocate an additional amount of (500) One billion dinars to support the ration card allocations, improve its vocabulary and provide it throughout the year, based on the provisions of Article (50 / b) of the General Budget Law 2021. For his part, the economist Mustafa Ankush called on the government to invest the stores of the Ministry of Trade and secure a strategic balance of foodstuffs through Importing them and providing them in the market in appropriate quantities and at subsidized prices in order to maintain the level of prices and ensure that they do not rise.
He explained to "Al-Sabah", that "these stores are untapped and most of them are empty and are rented for different purposes," suggesting that "dollar prices will rise more in the coming days in light of the loss of confidence in the local currency and the increasing demand for buying the dollar."
He pointed out that "fixing the new price of the dollar in the budget has increased the movement of demand for goods, including foodstuffs, after witnessing a voluntary reduction of purchases by merchants and citizens after fluctuation in prices during the period prior to approving the budget."
In turn, Salem Al-Tufaili, a member of the Parliamentary Committee on Economy and Investment, believes that “the main reason for the continued rise in the dollar exchange rate is the lack of real government control over the market, as well as the work of private banks and exchanges, which manipulate prices according to their interest without any oversight or accountability,” he says

Then, what the h#%l are you waiting for? Do something with your currency by revaluing the iqd between 10 cents to 1 buck immediately if you want to listen to what the iraq citizens demand for powerful purchasing power.

Adviser to the Prime Minister reveals to Al-Furat News the reason for the rise of the dollar... and warns
  

{Economic: Al Furat News} The Prime Minister's Advisor for Financial Affairs, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, revealed the reason for the recent rise in the dollar exchange rate in the local markets.
 

Saleh told {Euphrates News}, that "many situations and factors are not easy in the rise in dollar exchange rates, and they are also factors related to market behavior," noting that "there are monopolistic factors and speculators that raise dollar prices, and there are no efficient markets, which are weak and deal in monopolistic ways, but the central bank has Of the sufficient precautions that intervene in the market and impose the stable price of 1450 dinars with simple deductions.”
He added, "These are additional downloads, and they are a simple commission that is allowed globally, and the local market always differs from the official dollar market by 2%, and it is a simple cost between the two prices of the central and local banks."
Saleh warned against "reducing the sales of the Central Bank with the presence of such monopolistic incubators in the market because prices will rise a lot and affect the citizen, and if the bank's sales increase, the voices will be louder than the presence of sales that exceed the needs."
He explained, "The cash cost issued by overrun is covered in foreign currency," stressing "giving freedom and complete independence for the Central Bank from interfering with the matter of maintaining stability in the purchasing power of the Iraqi dinar."
It is noteworthy that the local markets and stock exchange prices throughout the country have witnessed during the past few days a continuous rise of the dollar and sometimes exceeded 1500 dinars against one dollar, i.e. a difference of 500 dinars from the price set by the Central Bank of Iraq {1450 dinars} since the beginning of this year.

I have a sure way to RV tomorrow!

All I would have to do is, sell my dinar and bam it would RV immediately. Maybe if I just say I sold them but really didn't, maybe that would work. Naaaaaa.

Too much longer and the Iraq citizens may just have to do a reverse sudam get together where the officials name is called and they approach the stage and disappear behind the curtains never to be seen again.

Or maybe a Colonel Gaddafi style ride down the street, ride with a rope attached to the neck.

Now Gaddafi was a Hero to Libya just not so much with the US......He had Gold and wanted to dump the US Dollar, His people were well cared for and it was a great place until the UST and obama/Hillarious figured out they had a problem......So he became a War Lord Dictator Over Night......But his people loved him until the obama/Hillarious camp got their short hairs caught in the Rat Trap and had to have him taken out.

 

Iraq with Saddam, Uday and Qusay maybe not so much as they indeed did some bad stuff to put it lightly or so the story goes.

I am no expert and I haven't stayed in a Holiday Inn in over 40 Years......There is something going on.....Iraq either goes or all of the Middle East fails and falls back into Radical Islam Rule.....Then we are all fhukd.

 

Iraq only has one way to go and that is Forward and they know it.....Just think about what it would cost Iraq if they were to back out of one Contract....day GE and the Mega Watts, The Port of Faw.....Billions that they would owe in default fees plus they know (PTB, GOI) they would Cripple the Middle East.

 

Iraq only has one move maybe two before it is zzzzzzzzz and game over. Now the Pawns are Pissed....No Value to their worthless Dinar, the Bishops and Knights are worried as they back Iraq...The Rooks have no place to go.....Everyone is betting on the King and Queen to Pull a Rabbit out of their Butt to get this thing done.

 

Soon ( and said this 40 years ago) send in the Buff's and turn into a Glass Pond.

Karsten,

 

I agree with you.  In the grand scheme of things, 40 years is not a long time.  I think it was Warren Buffett that said, "the markets are a mechanism to transfer wealth from the impatient to the patient".  There is no denying that foreign exchange currencies are a market.  Patience is the key.
