9-22-2012 Adam Montana [Do you think that Iraq needs a current census taken before the HCL can go into effect?] We know that we can count on the value of the dinar being exactly what they say it is - 1166, right? We know we can count on them to maintain the value of the Dinar, control inflation, and keep their money in check. The SAME THING goes for the census issue. If they were to RV to a very high rate, like $3 - they would need EXACT numbers and a very sophisticated system to maintain that value. But RVing to anything lower, like in the .10 to $1 range, gives them more flexibility and room for error. My point is that they may not have an exact census, but they are in control of their economy and I would ascertain that they have SUFFICIENT information to make this, and the HCL, work.
9-22-2012 BGG Article: "Deputy for Iraq: the security ministries will be resolved over the weekend after the return of Talibani" If the Ministers are, in fact, sorted out “over the weekend” – that would be Sat/Sun (today/tomorrow)…this thing is headed towards an imminent conclusion. The Ministers are a very big piece of the puzzle. If...

9-22-2012 Okie_Oil_Man I AM PRESENTLY VERIFYING AND CONFIRMING INFORMATION FURNISHED ME TODAY. THINGS ARE PROGRESSING ALTHO NOT AS FAST AS WE WANT. I FEEL THE END IS NEAR AND THE RATE IS STILL BEING SETTLED AT THIS TIME. A FLOAT IS A REALISTIC SCENARIO TO PURSUE WHEN DETERMINATION IS IN QUESTION ON THE TRUE VALUE OF A CURRENCY. JUST RECEIVED THE CONFIRMATION I HAVE BEEN WAITING ON FROM THE SAND-BOX--MAKE YOUR PREPARATIONS AS I WAS TOLD TO DO. LET'S SEE HOW THIS PLAY'S OUT. I AM NOT CALLING IT--I AM ONLY SHAREING WHAT WAS GIVEN TO ME--USE YOUR OWN ASSCESMENT TO THIS POST.
9-22-2012 Blaino there are substantial indications that the national conference... Will actually happen at last next WEEK....Perhaps late in the WEEK....Wed thru thursday....or even (gasp) FRIDAY. we are informed some time back that the completion of that 'meeting' will commence a 24 hour window for "something" to happen with the currency. Will that something be the "free float" we heard recently Or a more traditional "RV". That remains to be seen. i do hear from the panda express (in several iterations) that completion is "imminent". MEBBY...Just MEBBY...We'll see something soon!
9-22-2012 Randy Koonce When you see the National Conference take place, get excited. I am hoping to see the National Conference next week. They have started announcing the conference in the paper, this is a very good sign. We should start seeing date for it by tomorrow. From what we understand, eveybody is happy. I believe that once we see the National Conference there is no turning back. They will announce the ministers and the Strategic Council. When it goes into the gazette, that's your green light, then Shabibi can do what he needs to do. Four to Five days after the conference we should see the RV. The rate is going to be $3.41 to make the budget. Did they pass the budget...Yes! It's not going to move, not going to float. Iraq itself is trying to get things done, this is a good sign. It's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when!
9-22-2012 Hammerman ALL IS GREAT...UST IS IN LOCK DOWN MODE STARTED AT 11:30 CST. WORD IS COULD RV AT ANY TIME...NOT SURE WHAT TO THINK...JUST GOT THIS...MADAM WU SIGNED PAPERS...SHABIBI UNDER GREAT PRESSURE BY CONTRACTORS...SHABIBI SAYS HAS TO GO DOWN BY TUESDAY.
9-22-2012 Mike We took a big look at Article 140...Maliki let go of the funds to pay the oil companies which were disputed for the Kurdistan region - this was huge lift to the Kurds...they still have the disputed regions and a few other things that need to get done but we talked about the Parliamentary Committee taking up and hearings on the 140 so they can get this passed next week - that is the closest we have ever been and they are actually talking about it and really going forward.
