keepmwlknfny Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 Now these are the articles we need to be seeing......The reserves going UP!!! The more they build the reserves, the higher exchange rate they can back..... And this would pretty much put to bed the whole rumor about having 250 billion in reserves now since the DFI was released.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Increased Reserves = Higher Rate Wonder what ever happened to the DFI funds that were released...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keepmwlknfny Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 You're right Keep. Increased Reserves = Higher Rate Wonder what ever happened to the DFI funds that were released...? Well there were articles talking about Iraq spreading the billions across private accounts in Europe and mostly the US to protect the money from any claims.... According to more reliable sources, there was only about 15 billion in actual currency, but we cant be sure of what hard assets were included as they did state the records were not updated as should be so they are not fully accurate.... Havent seen any evidence of tons of actual money released to them from the DFI....I think the 250 billion number could have been a total accumulated or could have been funds and assets put together....Cant be 100% sure but it seems we know where it DIDNT go lol....

Gotcha. It definitely isn't in reserves if they just stated total of $58 Billion. I didn't read the entire original article but where did the additional $8 billion come from?

Thats what I would like to know.....I mean I guess in all reality it COULD have come from some of the DFI funds..... Although Im sure there is no way to prove it or find a paper trail lol.... It is odd and makes me curious where they got it but its also not specific enough to really know over how long of a period it took to add the additional 8 billion.... Whatever the case may be, they need to keep doing it!! Its muy importante!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
