keepmwlknfny Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 wow i did not like that post ,sorry , Yea its definately not what we all want to hear.....what I dont understand is how he is saying that its going to be a redenomination but its not what we think its going to be and its not a RV either So no change in value but they are redenominating the bills aka 1000 old dinar = 1 new dinar.......so if thats whats going down, then it seems as if we shall be waiting alot longer for anything positive to happen....gonna have to be patient!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darin Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Yea its definately not what we all want to hear.....what I dont understand is how he is saying that its going to be a redenomination but its not what we think its going to be and its not a RV either So no change in value but they are redenominating the bills aka 1000 old dinar = 1 new dinar.......so if thats whats going down, then it seems as if we shall be waiting alot longer for anything positive to happen....gonna have to be patient!! Actually, we won't be waiting any longer. If they do that, I doubt we will be able to hold onto our 000s forever. If that may be.... I think I will go through the hoops of the ISX upon a cash-out. I figure, why not, right? Their economy should "boom" and I figure maybe I can walk away with some profit one way or another. Right? I should do it now, but, who knows... As foreign investors pour in, I figure that they would pour into the ISX as well. If it crashes, oh well, I tried at least right? Figure I can't make 2 poor judgment calls in a row.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thylocene Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 The article is over a month old. Parts of the article are observations and as such are open to interpretation.

FatMan Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 So I guess this Dinar will make good wall paper after all... I mean it IS Educational for people who have never seen a note other than a USD. :-( Darnit. (Putting my Tool belt back on) Thanks for the post...

Figure I can't make 2 poor judgment calls in a row.. Your right about possibly not being able to hold onto them forever buuuutttt they have mentioned letting the two bills co-exist for sometime so IF thats the case, maybe just maybe we would get lucky and be able to hold out until the dinar appreciates a bit but on another note, the idea of the ISX is def great.....Thats what I planned on doing with any profit made off this investment because it is a good time to jump into their stock market with it being so young and undeveloped.....sure fire way to make some money off Iraq 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatMan Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 On second thought, If they don't RV, Then what do they gain? I mean, Yes they can still buy a soda by removing 000's, But their note is still worth Close to Nothing compared to our already Low value USD... Right? They have SO MUCH VALUE In that country! Their Note SHOULD Be worth way more than ours.... Right? Idk Krem 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Dinauer Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 (edited) However, If you give an Iraqi merchant a $ 1.00 usd the Iraqi merchant will not give you back any change. They will keep your one dollar for the purchase of the can of coke. That’s just a policy they’ve seemed to be doing for awhile now. A policy..yeah the policy of ripping you off. I think the article is off anyway. Based on the wording they lop but do not revalue. Currency is not worth much now, why would you make it worth even less. They may have some level of purchasing there, but no one will be going on vacation anywhere outside of there unless they are going to Vietnam.

FatMan Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 I want to hear what Adam thinks. Does this mean their value compared to ours will knock off 000 and be .1? <--- Kinda jokeing. But really, If their note stays the same compared to ours, I'll cross seas to get a tank of gas in my car. It HAS To come up in value. They are not worthless like the Dinar is right now.

Their Note SHOULD Be worth way more than ours.... Right? Idk Krem Well if they remove zeros from the currency they would remove them from the exchange rate as well effectively making their currency worth almost the same as ours. I too am kinda lost on what this guy is trying to say when he says the removal of the zeros plan is almost finished and ready for a vote, but then says it is a redenomination and not a LOP and the purchasing power will not increase. Ok lets look at what he said(although it's just some guys opinion). So they are going to remove zeros but it's not a LOP. So it will be a redenomination. OK. A 1000 becomes a 1 note which is a LOP. HAHA. He also said it will not increase purchasing power and its not the RV we all want. I don't know but it all sounds like a LOP to me. Hope he is wrong.

FatMan Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 (edited) I hope he's wrong for their country above all else... But ANY WAY you look at what they end up doing, It should increase their note value compaired to ours. Lop, Redenom, RV.... It has to come up or they are still a poor country.

Rossenbos Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 This is old news and it's wrong. Sure, the extra zeroes aren't helping the economy but dropping the zeroes from the notes and from the prices in the shops doesn't change shite for the economy. The value of the IQD vs the US $ is what it's about. Lopping is merely aesthetics. RV is about ....eh...revalue. It's going to RV good people. Not lopping. Do your homework.

FatMan Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 If it even Comes CLOSE to ours I'll Be happy. Cause that's a Gain! REVALUE In my Book... Though I haven't written one...

dman13 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Seems to me that if they remove the 0's from their physical currency (i.e. 25000 dinars = 25 dinars) then they still have to revalue the worth or they are reducing their purchasing power by simply reducing the amount of physical dinars on hand. Which implies that regardless they have to revalue the worth of the dinar. So the question is: do they LOP and revalue or simply revalue. Two schools of thought, but I believe they will simply revalue because they want the greatest purchasing power possible; because other nations are involved with dinars waiting to be traded for oil; and because infrastructures don't come cheap. Yes, I've read reasons that people believe a LOP is imminent- and, it might happen coupled with a reval which I believe would make our investment gain ~300%; however, I believe that a small reval without a LOP is just as feasible (.25-1.00) or that it could in fact support a 3.00 reval assuming that nations will most likely look to bind some type of 'oil for dinar' contract and individuals will convert to electronic transactions. Everyone on here has probably read and read the information available and it becomes a matter of personal belief because the one thing I'm certain of at this moment is we won't know until the lady sings. 300% doesn't change my life- 3000% does... so you know where I'm at Good luck to everyone and GO RV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
