Reset Intelligence: 90 Days Without the Grid.
By Reset Intelligence | @EXIT_FIAT
On Friday the White House announced a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine in Oleshky, brokered through First Lady Melania Trump, and negotiators from Ukraine, Russia and the United States agreed to technical talks in Abu Dhabi in the first half of November.
Over the weekend, documents showed the Pentagon wants every major base in the continental United States able to run for at least 90 days without outside electricity, water, fuel or communications.
The tell
On Friday, on state television, Prime Minister al-Zaidi put numbers on the paper dollars Iraq draws from its oil account at the New York Fed. Deliveries came back at roughly $140 million a month and now run at $500 million, and he is working to take that to $1 billion. He said the Federal Reserve is worried about cash reaching the armed factions, and that the dollar may return to 155,000 dinars per $100 or less.
What moved this week
Baghdad's street - closed Sunday at 167,750 IQD for $100, against the bank's 152,000. Saturday and Sunday were the first lower closes in two weeks.
Cash - Iraq's Central Bank says $1 billion in cash lands in Baghdad within a week.
CNN's owner - Elon Musk was reported on Thursday to have put about $1 billion into Skydance, the owner of CNN and CBS News. Neither Musk nor the company has confirmed it.
Stablecoins - on October 21 the US bank regulator issued its final rule for the stablecoin issuers it supervises. The law takes effect on January 18, 2027.
Budget - parliament extended its term to December 1 to take the 2027 budget, and al-Zaidi ordered 120,000 new contract posts.
The question
Peace talks, cleaner money and new owners at the networks, all at once. Coincidence, or one plan rolling out in order, and what does it mean for the IQD you hold?
That is the short version. How the ceasefire, the dollars and the networks connect, and what it means for the dinar you hold - that is the daily read.
