Tishwash:  Is Washington's refusal to grant a Sudanese visa a political message or a diplomatic slap in the face?

An informed political source confirmed to Al-Mustaqilla on Wednesday that Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani has not yet obtained an entry visa to the United States, despite the start of the UN General Assembly meetings in New York.

The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity and accuracy of the information, stressed that the Prime Minister's Office had not received any official notification from the US embassy in Baghdad or the Iraqi embassy in Washington regarding the issuance of visas to the Iraqi delegation.

This has raised widespread questions about the reasons for this unusual delay, especially since participation in UN meetings is an international protocol open to world leaders.

The source added that the lack of clarity from Washington has prompted many observers, followers, and media outlets to raise several possibilities, most notably that the delay reflects an undeclared political stance by the US president's administration toward the current Iraqi government, or a pressure message linked to thorny and complex domestic and regional issues, amid escalating disagreements over the US military presence and relations with Iran.

Others believe the matter may be merely technical or procedural, but its timing raises questions about Washington's willingness to treat al-Sudani's government as a genuine partner, or to limit it to the status of an "international observer."

The question remains: Will Washington grant al-Sudani a visa at the last minute, or is Iraq facing a new diplomatic crisis at the United Nations?  link

Tishwash:  International praise for Iraq's balanced policies

Several NATO members, including the United States, France, Italy, and the United Kingdom, have commended the Iraqi government's policies and its efforts to address security challenges.

The delegates' praise came during a session of the North Atlantic Council, which hosted Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani yesterday, Monday, in the Belgian capital, Brussels.

Al-Sudani delivered a speech in which he noted that this meeting is being held amidst the turmoil and fundamental transformations taking place in the Middle East, the violation of the principles of the international order, the perpetration of crimes against humanity, and the threat to regional security. He emphasized the establishment of a constructive partnership with NATO based on a sovereign decision, aiming for comprehensive, long-term relations in various fields.

The Prime Minister explained that Iraq is no longer a security concern, but rather a reliable strategic partner.

Representatives from ten NATO member states, including the United States, France, Turkey, the Netherlands, Italy, the United Kingdom, Slovakia, Greece, Hungary, and Latvia, delivered interventions and expressed their positions.

Some delegates also represented the positions of several other NATO member states. International praise was paid to the Iraqi government's policies and its efforts to address security challenges, particularly those positions that have helped Iraq avoid the repercussions of the escalation currently taking place in the region.

These interventions included an emphasis on the long-term partnership between the member states of the Atlantic Council and Iraq, as well as an emphasis on the fact that Iraq represents a fundamental pillar in enhancing regional security and stability, in addition to praising Iraq's role, its balanced foreign policy, and its wise management of situations in events. 

Regional. The interventions also commended the Iraqi government's success in building the defensive capabilities of its armed forces, noting that a stable Iraq is a guarantee of regional security. They also emphasized the Atlantic Council countries' commitment to supporting Iraq's security, and emphasized that Iraq today is a force for regional peace.  link

Tishwash:  The Central Bank's fruitful efforts to achieve the comprehensive banking reform project.

Samir Al-Nusairi

The Central Bank's actions and efforts, in partnership and consultation with private banks, have been fruitful in facilitating the implementation of the objectives, mechanisms, and standards of the comprehensive banking reform project, in cooperation with the government and the global consulting firm Oliver Wyman, and the objectives and initiatives of its third strategy.

Given that economic reform begins with banking reform, the challenges facing the Iraqi economy and the opportunities for reform in the banking and financial sector are highlighted in the government's program, as are the prospects for the Central Bank's future vision for the role of the banking sector in achieving sustainable development and investment.

 The efforts currently being made to activate and revolutionize productive economic sectors other than oil to diversify sources of national income, achieve financial sustainability, and accelerate the growth of the national economy are also highlighted, as is the role of the Central Bank in regulating foreign trade financing, completing infrastructure projects to achieve comprehensive digital transformation, and expanding the use of electronic payment tools to achieve financial inclusion.

Opportunities exist to reform and develop the banking sector during 2025-2028 in accordance with the following objectives:

First: Developing the Iraqi banking system and its compliance with international banking and accounting standards.

Second: Building a sound, modern, comprehensive and flexible banking sector.

Third: Enhancing citizens' confidence in the banking sector locally and internationally, and acknowledging its transparency, progress, and strict commitment to international standards, and gaining the trust of reputable correspondent banks to deal with it.

Fourth: Rehabilitating restricted and weak banks to return to activity in the banking market with full internal and external activities.

Fifth: Transforming banks to their primary function, which is financing and bank lending for development, and enhancing financial inclusion and increasing its current rate as planned.

Sixth: Strengthening the procedures and decisions for the transition from a cash economy to a digital economy, withdrawing funds outside the banking cycle, which constitute approximately 80%, and introducing them into the banking system.

Although all the above objectives have a three-year implementation period according to the banking reform project and the Central Bank’s strategy, what was achieved in 2023 and 2024 and up to June 30, 2025 in terms of building foundations, rules and pillars formed a supportive pillar in building the mechanisms and paths of the desired reforms, and they constitute ambitious percentages as announced, which will lead to the evaluation and classification of banks based on their achievement of the planned objectives in the reform project according to the internationally approved standards and criteria  link

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

India Drives BRICS Trade Solutions, Trump Warns It Won’t End Well
New Delhi pushes for reforms inside BRICS while facing mounting pressure from Washington.

India’s Direct Challenge to Partners
At the latest BRICS virtual summit, India’s External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar, representing Prime Minister Narendra Modi, delivered a blunt message: India’s biggest trade deficits are with its BRICS partners.

Jaishankar argued that reform within the bloc is overdue, stating:
“The BRICS itself can set an example by reviewing trade flows among its member states.”

His remarks highlight the growing strain as India navigates tariff battles with the Trump administration while balancing partnerships with China and Russia.

Massive Trade Deficits Exposed
The scale of India’s trade imbalances is striking:

• India’s trade deficit with China hit a record $99.21 billion in FY 2025, with Beijing’s surplus climbing 16% this year to $77.7 billion.

• With Russia, bilateral trade reached $68.7 billion, but India’s reliance on oil imports created a $59 billion deficit.

These numbers add urgency to India’s call for BRICS reforms, especially as Trump’s tariffs complicate negotiations.

Trump Administration’s Harsh Warnings
Trump’s trade advisor Peter Navarro escalated tensions, warning India that its policies “won’t end well” if New Delhi resists cooperation in new trade talks.

Navarro criticized India’s tariffs as the “highest in any major country against the U.S.” and defended Washington’s 50% tariff on Indian goods—even harsher than the 30% levies on Chinese imports.

On energy, Navarro said bluntly:
“India never bought oil from Moscow before Russia invaded Ukraine, except for like little tiny drops of it.”

He also issued a geopolitical warning:
“If India doesn’t come around, it’s lying down with Russia and China, and that won’t end well for India.”

BRICS Alliance Under Fire
Navarro didn’t stop with India. He attacked the entire BRICS bloc, labeling its members as “vampires” draining U.S. wealth with unfair trade practices:
“None of these countries can survive if they don’t sell to the United States. Their exports are like vampires sucking our blood dry.”

China’s President Xi Jinping responded by warning that tariff wars “severely disrupt the world economy and undermine international trade rules.”

Signs of Reconciliation
Despite the heated rhetoric, Trump has also signaled a softer side, praising Modi as a “great prime minister” and emphasizing the “special” U.S.-India relationship. Modi, for his part, responded positively, suggesting that diplomacy may still offer a path to resolution.

Why This Matters
India’s push for BRICS trade reforms—and the Trump administration’s aggressive tariffs—are testing global alliances at a critical moment. Whether diplomacy or confrontation prevails will shape the trajectory of BRICS, U.S.-India relations, and broader trade stability in the years ahead.

Metals Going Parabolic: "This Is The Time" | Andy Schectman

Metals Going Parabolic: "This Is The Time" | Andy Schectman

Liberty and Finance:  9-8-2025

Miles Franklin president & CEO Andy Schectman returns to discuss why gold’s surge to record highs is less about gold rising and more about currencies collapsing.

He warns that U.S. debt levels and money printing are destroying confidence in the dollar, while central banks are hoarding gold instead of Treasuries. Heavy COMEX deliveries and short squeezes in silver highlight the growing stress in paper markets. With global bond markets rejecting rate cuts and U.S. jobs data showing weakness, Schectman sees stagflation ahead.

Are you feeling the tremors in the global financial landscape? What many consider normal market fluctuations might, in fact, be the early signs of a profound monetary reset, a once-in-a-half-century rotation of capital that could dramatically reshape our economic future.

A recent, comprehensive discussion featured on Liberty and Finance, with Andy Shakman, CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, unpacks these critical shifts. His insights paint a vivid picture of a world where the US dollar’s dominance is waning, and precious metals are emerging as the ultimate safe haven.

Forget the headlines that simply cheer gold’s near-record highs. Shakman clarifies that this isn’t merely a bullish rally for gold itself; it’s a stark reflection of widespread currency depreciation worldwide.

The value of the US dollar, alongside other fiat currencies, is eroding, and gold is simply holding its own as a true store of value.

This phenomenon is dramatically underscored by the actions of foreign governments and central banks. They are increasingly divesting from US treasuries and accumulating gold at an unprecedented pace. This isn’t just a strategic shift; it signals a profound and growing lack of confidence in the dollar’s stability and the sustainability of US debt.

This isn’t just about the dollar; it’s about the questionable stability of traditional asset classes. Stocks, bonds, and even real estate, once considered pillars of wealth, are facing unprecedented volatility and inflation risks.

 In response, Andy Shakman points to a growing trend: the physical hoarding of silver and gold. Individuals and institutions are seeking tangible assets that can weather an inflationary and unstable economic environment.

The mainstream financial media, Shakman argues, has largely failed to adequately address these transformative monetary trends. Yet, the signs are all around us, pointing to a converging series of economic shifts that demand attention.

The message is clear: diversified investment strategies emphasizing gold and silver are no longer niche; they are increasingly essential wealth preservation tools.

 This isn’t just another market cycle; it’s a fundamental re-evaluation of value and risk on a global scale.

Ariel: The Wild Card Scenario

Ariel: The Wild Card Scenario

9-9-2025

The Wild Card Scenario: No Straight Lines

Do not rest on assumptions about the process.

Do not expect this to go in a straight line.

Do not think political sensitivities are concrete.

Do not place any importance on policy tweaks.

This is not going to go how we have been told.

I did a long informative article on the many variables at play. And even then I still do not think I have covered other unexpected things that can turn this entire event on its head.

Majeed:  BREAKING - Elections in Iraq may be postponed due to an upcoming "major event." An Iraqi official says the government has received information from regional and international countries—which he did not name—indicating that the elections will not be held on schedule due to a "major event" taking place in the region. https://almadapaper.net/412842/

If this event involves escalated conflicts affecting oil exports 95% of Iraq’s revenue the CBI might advance a rate adjustment to 1:1 or 3:1 USD, leveraging $150 billion in reserves and gold holdings to attract foreign investment and mitigate capital flight.

Which would be a natural reaction to what can possibly happen during this critical time. This is why I tell you all to not pay too much attention to the political theater. Bechtel as long as Iraq can they will. And you know what I mean.

This situation directly intersects with previously discussed wild card scenarios, such as a cyberattack disrupting financial networks or a political purge accelerating reforms, as the “major event” could manifest as a regional crisis forcing the Central Bank of Iraq to expedite a dinar revaluation to stabilize the economy amid chaos.

Nobody wants to be caught with their pants down in this scenario. Iraq, investors, or shareholders.

We Are About To Enter Another Phase At A Much Faster Rate Of Acceleration

Plausible Trigger Mechanisms

The initiative could commence with an executive order issued by Trump by mid September 2025, directing the declassification of quantum decryption algorithms developed at Sandia National Laboratories.

These tools, capable of breaching 256-bit AES encryption within hours, would target international banking networks, revealing $2 trillion in illicit funds diverted through offshore entities linked to historical U.S.-Iraq financial arrangements.

This exposure, including manipulation of Iraq’s $35 billion reserves held in U.S. accounts, would erode confidence in the petrodollar system, prompting a 20-30% USD depreciation over 48 hours.

Iraq’s Central Bank, safeguarding $150 billion in reserves and 162.7 tons of gold, would respond with an emergency rate adjustment this month (IMO) Utilizing XRP-integrated systems for seamless Forex entry.

The acceleration stems from the decryption’s unforeseen efficiency, outpacing traditional cyber threats and forcing immediate action to prevent capital flight.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

SEC Crypto Task Force Targets Financial Surveillance, Privacy, and Market Clarity
Commissioner Hester Peirce leads new push for balance between oversight and innovation in digital assets.

A Fresh Approach at the SEC
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is pressing ahead with its digital asset agenda, announcing that its crypto task force will hold a public roundtable on financial surveillance and privacy in Washington, D.C., on October 17.

Led by Commissioner Hester Peirce, the task force has already hosted multiple roundtables since the departure of former SEC Chair Gary Gensler, with 10 events planned across the country through December.

“Understanding recent developments in privacy-protecting tools will assist the SEC and other financial regulators as we work on policy solutions in the crypto space,” Peirce said.

Policy Shifts in Motion
The SEC recently proposed new rules, including:

• Exemptions and safe harbors for certain crypto asset sales.

• Adjustments to broker-dealer financial responsibility rules that could reduce compliance burdens for U.S.-operating crypto companies.

These steps suggest a measured shift toward more industry-friendly regulation compared to the enforcement-heavy approach under prior leadership.

Collaboration with the CFTC
The SEC is not acting alone. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), now led solely by Acting Chair Caroline Pham, has also signaled a softer stance. Pham said the agency would follow the White House’s lead on digital asset policy.

Both regulators have begun exploring:

• A potential shift to 24/7 capital markets.

• Regulations for crypto derivatives.

• A coordinated framework for spot crypto trading, following recommendations from the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets.

Congressional Oversight Ahead
All of these efforts could soon be superseded by federal legislation. The Senate is considering the Responsible Financial Innovation Act, a comprehensive market structure bill. Co-sponsor Senator Cynthia Lummis believes it could become law before 2026, formally codifying the roles of the SEC and CFTC in digital asset regulation.

Why This Matters
The SEC’s evolving stance shows a recognition that crypto markets require both regulatory clarity and respect for privacy-enhancing tools. With roundtables engaging industry and policymakers, and Congress weighing a structural overhaul, the coming years could define how the U.S. balances surveillance, innovation, and investor protection in digital finance.

SEC Delays Decision on HBAR and Polkadot ETFs Until November
Regulator points to listing standards, not token rejection, as altcoins hold strong.

Another SEC Delay
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has once again delayed decisions on two altcoin ETF filings: Canary’s Hedera (HBAR) ETF and Grayscale’s Polkadot (DOT) ETF. The regulator extended its deadline to November 8, marking the third delay since March.

For the Canary HBAR ETF, Nasdaq first filed in February and amended the proposal in March. The SEC has since requested several rounds of public comments, questioning whether the product qualifies under Nasdaq’s commodity-based trust shares rule. Grayscale’s Polkadot ETF is following a nearly identical timeline.

Why the Delay?
The SEC’s hesitation has less to do with HBAR or DOT specifically and more to do with the lack of uniform listing standards for spot crypto ETFs. The agency is holding back approvals until exchanges finalize a broader framework.

• Major exchanges — including Nasdaq, NYSE, and CBOE BZX — have already submitted amendments to redefine “commodity” by removing “excluded commodities.”

• This change would smooth the way for altcoin ETFs, making them easier to classify and list.

In short, the SEC appears to be waiting for standardization before approving any products beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Market Reactions Stay Positive
Despite the delay, both tokens showed resilience:

• HBAR rose about 1% this week, trading near $0.22.

• Polkadot (DOT) surged almost 4% to $4.03, with trading volume spiking more than 225% in 24 hours.

Analysts suggest this optimism reflects a belief that approval is inevitable once listing standards are finalized. Bloomberg continues to assign a 90% probability of eventual approval for both ETFs.

The Bigger Picture
The SEC’s cautious approach signals it is building a standardized ETF framework rather than rejecting altcoin products outright. While the November deadline is the next milestone, market participants are already pricing in a favorable outcome.

If approved, HBAR and Polkadot ETFs could mark the beginning of a new wave of altcoin ETFs, further expanding crypto’s integration into U.S. capital markets.

Analysts Say Bitcoin Has Yet to Prove Its “Digital Gold” Role
Despite gold’s surge, Bitcoin still trades like a risk asset tied to tech stocks.

Geopolitics and Market Anxiety
Global markets were rocked this week by a combination of weak U.S. employment figures, intensifying trade disputes, ongoing wars, and political turmoil in France. The uncertainty pushed gold to new record highs. Bitcoin, however, did not follow. Instead, it mirrored the Nasdaq 100, reinforcing its tight correlation with equities rather than acting as a safe-haven asset.

Ecoinometrics: “Digital Gold” Narrative Still Missing
Research group Ecoinometrics found that Bitcoin’s correlation with gold and U.S. Treasuries remains close to zero. Meanwhile, its connection to risk assets remains strong, with Ethereum even more equity-like in its trading behavior. Analysts emphasized that Bitcoin has yet to make the anticipated transition into a true “digital gold” hedge.

Fed Meeting as the Turning Point
Investor attention now shifts to the upcoming Federal Reserve meeting, which may set the tone for both crypto and equities:

• A clear rate-cut signal could spark optimism across risk markets, potentially lifting Bitcoin.

• A hawkish surprise may weigh on both tech stocks and crypto, keeping Bitcoin locked in its current risk-asset role.

Bitwise: Macro Still Dictates the Trend
According to André Dragosch of Bitwise, the current weakness in Bitcoin isn’t driven by crypto fundamentals, but rather by slowing global growth and shrinking risk appetite.

Still, Dragosch maintains a cautiously optimistic outlook:

• Liquidity growth and Fed easing could fuel a stronger environment later this year.

• In the short term, the Fed meeting represents a “double event”—either a launchpad for recovery or a trigger for further downside.

Why This Matters
Bitcoin’s ability—or failure—to prove itself as “digital gold” will remain a central narrative for investors. With gold surging to fresh highs and global instability persisting, the coming months may determine whether Bitcoin truly evolves into a safe-haven asset or continues behaving like a speculative tech trade.

Gold Telegraph: I Always Said this Would End as a Tragic Comedy

9-9-2025

I said years ago, the East would eventually punch the West in the teeth with gold. Here we are…

The dollar has lost nearly 45% of its purchasing power against gold over the past 1 year. Read that again.

I said this over 4 years ago, and people laughed. Now I see a lot of fingers pointed and desperation. Elements are the center of it all now.

Russia is warning that the United States will leverage stablecoins backed by Treasuries to offload $35T debt. Pushing global adoption, then devaluing the dollar, leaving the world holding the bag. I explained this “genius act” weeks ago. Well…

https://twitter.com/i/status/1965099331301871708

Gold Telegraph:  Dollar stablecoins are just a euphemism for a central bank digital currency. They don’t call it the Genius Act for nothing. It enforces global demand for a U.S. controlled medium to access decentralized finance and the world applauds. Yes, that’s genius.

It is one thing to watch an idea come to life. Watching that idea empower people and protect their future is another level entirely. Today, The entire world is talking about it. It has made all the long hours worth it for over a decade.

I always said this would end as a TRAGIC COMEDY. Tragic: The world’s reality becoming uglier than most could imagine. Comedy: That in such chaos, gold quietly stands out. The paradox writes itself. Well…

Dr. Scott Young: How the Gold Standard Actually Works to Replace the US Budget

Dr. Scott Young: How the Gold Standard Actually Works to Replace the US Budget

9-9-2025

In this detailed and reflective video, Dr. Scott explores the complex economic challenges facing the United States, particularly focusing on the national debt crisis and the potential role of gold revaluation as a solution to replace the traditional federal budget and the IRS system.

He begins by explaining his personal journey of questioning the future and seeking divine guidance on what actions and thoughts are necessary amid ongoing financial turmoil. Dr. Scott critiques common financial terminology and stresses the importance of backing hope with evidence.

The core of the discussion revolves around the unsustainable U.S. federal debt, currently exceeding $37 trillion, with annual interest costs nearing $1 trillion—surpassing the entire defense budget.

The government’s persistent overspending and reliance on borrowing create a debt spiral that threatens economic stability, exacerbated by the risk of rising interest rates which would further inflate debt-servicing expenses.

Dr. Scott highlights the paradox that government spending is a critical driver of GDP, so drastic budget cuts could trigger a recession and shrink tax revenues, worsening the debt problem.

Drawing parallels with Japan’s nearly two-decade-long experience in yield curve control, Dr. Scott warns that the U.S. is on a similar path of unsustainable debt and monetary policy with no viable exit, leading to inflation and economic stagnation. He references the Bretton Woods Agreement and Japan’s role in supporting the U.S. dollar to illustrate historical financial interdependence.

A significant portion of the video discusses recent federal proposals around gold revaluation, including legislation that could require the Federal Reserve to revalue gold certificates to their fair market value and adjust the budget accordingly.

This revaluation could create new budget-neutral spending power without increasing debt, potentially replacing the IRS tax system and ending the Federal Reserve’s current monetary regime.

Dr. Scott explains how previous gold revaluations, such as those in the 1930s, effectively devalued the dollar and expanded government spending power.

He further analyzes the gold reserves available in the U.S. and globally, discussing estimates of gold holdings and their potential to cover trillions in budget shortfalls if revalued at higher market prices.

This could enable a massive fiscal reset: eliminating national debt, balancing the budget, and instituting a gold-backed currency with zero inflation and simple interest.

 Dr. Scott emphasizes that such a transformation would require coordinated action between the military, economic, and political spheres.

In addition to the fiscal discussion, Dr. Scott touches on state-level budget abuses and fraudulent spending as examples of systemic inefficiencies. He warns against speculative financial schemes like QFS crypto and advocates for a grounded, faith-based approach to understanding economic reforms.

 Finally, he frames the ongoing efforts as a “war” against corrupt cabal interests, with the military playing a crucial role in enforcing executive orders to reclaim control over the economy.

Throughout the video, Dr. Scott encourages viewers to balance hope with faith grounded in evidence, acknowledging the difficulty and length of the process but promising transformative change on a global scale.

For a deeper dive into this groundbreaking proposal and to explore the full details of Dr. Scott Young’s vision, we highly recommend watching his complete video for further insights and information.

Is It Time To Ring The Bell On Gold?

Is It Time To Ring The Bell On Gold?

Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black)  September 4, 2025

In our April edition of our premium investment research service, we told subscribers about a highly promising precious metals company— one that we thought was deeply undervalued.

The company had rapidly grown its production nearly 20x in just a few years, not to mention they had also paid off ALL of their debt. Yet they were still trading at just a few times earnings.

With strong cash flow, solid management, and rising gold and silver prices, it was precisely the kind of deep-value setup we look for. This company is now up 5x just since April.

We’ve been very bullish on the precious metals story for the past few years; we have been writing very consistently that gold prices would continue surging higher because central banks around the world are losing confidence in the dollar.

Just this week we told you that foreign governments and central banks now own more gold than they own US government bonds; it’s the clearest sign yet that foreign powers are lining up against the dollar.

Yet while we have been predicting higher gold prices for years, we have been particularly bullish on gold (and other precious metals) companies, i.e. mining, royalty, and service businesses.

And this prediction has also been correct; while precious metals prices are rocketing higher, shares of the companies which produce these metals are performing even better.

Silver, for example, has increased by 33% since April, while one of our silver companies has increased by 400%.

Another silver company we highlighted in March is up 230% in six months.

A gold company we highlighted more than a year ago has increased by 300% in the same time frame that gold has shot up 100%.

We said this would happen. And we said that when investors realized what they were missing, the rise in these companies’ values could happen very quickly. This is precisely what we’re seeing now.

Month after month through our premium investment research service (called the 4th Pillar), we have presented our subscribers with companies that were debt-free, well-managed, extremely profitable... yet trading at laughably cheap valuations.

While the general stock market right now is trading near record-high price/earnings ratios, our featured precious metals companies were trading at multiples as low as TWO.

There’s just one problem: the market is starting to notice. After all, these are all publicly traded companies.

Everyone can see their quarterly financials. Quarter 1 of 2025 was solid. Q2 was exceptional. Q3 earnings are coming out soon, and they will be even better.

************************************

What we have been saying for years is no longer a secret. It’s all out in the open now, and investors are piling in to these gold and silver businesses.

The thing is, these companies still look pretty cheap, simply because they are making so much money and their earnings are growing rapidly.

So despite rising by up to 5X, we believe many of these precious metals companies could still double again in value over the next few months as countless investors start piling in.

We want to make sure our readers still have the chance to participate in this rally over the next few months. 

So if you haven’t yet invested in this historic boom, we think the next few months are set to be absolutely enormous... and could be the last opportunity to get in during this phase of the cycle.

That’s why we really want to encourage you to join our our premium investment research, the 4th Pillar.

In just this month’s edition— which comes out tomorrow— you’ll read about several undervalued gold and silver companies which our chief analyst believes are still primed for major growth over the next few months.

He added, "The ministry has increased its gas investment percentage from 45% to 70%, with an ambitious plan to close the flared gas file by 2028. Work is also underway on renewable energy projects, most notably a 1,000-megawatt solar power plant ."

He pointed out that "the integrated project in Artawi includes four axes: increasing oil production, exploiting gas from five fields, establishing a solar energy project, and using seawater injection to increase pressure in oil fields ."

Khadir emphasized that "Iraq is working to develop the infrastructure and human resources in the oil sector, while supporting national companies and raising their efficiency to match their partnerships with international companies, thus enhancing development in all governorates and creating ample job opportunities   link

The Vice President of the American Chamber of Commerce, Steve Lutes, confirmed that the Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Region, Masrour Barzani, seeks to diversify the economy in Kurdistan, stressing that American companies are ready to cooperate in this field.

A delegation from the American Chamber of Commerce, comprising more than 30 companies, is currently visiting Erbil to invest in various sectors within the Kurdistan Region.

Steve Lutes told Kurdistan 24 on Sunday that the delegation is not only listening to economic opportunities from officials, but is also seeking to connect with local businesspeople, with the goal of finding new partners and increasing trade and investment activity in the Kurdistan Region.

Tishwash:  Al-Sudani's advisor reveals the extent of the development path's contribution to the Iraqi economy.

Mudhar Mohammed Salih, advisor to the Iraqi Prime Minister, revealed on Monday that the development road project will contribute 20% to diversifying the national economy.

Salih said in a press interview that "the development road project, which connects the port of Faw in southern Iraq to Turkey via a 1,200 km railway and road network, is one of the largest logistics projects in the region, with an estimated cost of $17 billion."

He added that "the project will open the door to diversifying the national economy as the road is connected to free economic zones, industrial cities and advanced logistics services," expecting that "it will contribute approximately 20% to diversifying the national economy in terms of its contribution to the gross domestic product in the long term."

Salih pointed out that "this will be a basis for employing a national workforce of approximately one million workers and activating important joints in the national economy, in addition to advanced land and rail transportation services, in addition to attracting regional and international investments continuously as it connects the Gulf to Europe via Turkey, which are important economic regions globally in terms of relative weight."

The government advisor concluded his remarks by saying, "The project will sustainably strengthen the Iraqi economy and improve the country's resilience to global market fluctuations. If invested efficiently and integrated with plans to boost industry, trade, and services, its impact could undoubtedly be as significant as that of oil in the long term."  link

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

BRICS Anti-America Strains Rise as JP Morgan Predicts US Dollar Future

Despite de-dollarization campaigns, JPMorgan says the U.S. dollar’s dominance remains entrenched for decades to come.

JPMorgan’s Dollar Dominance Outlook
JPMorgan analysts argue that the U.S. dollar’s global supremacy is not easily displaced. Their research points to deep and liquid capital markets, rule of law, predictable legal systems, and robust USD liquidity as foundations of dollar dominance.

While dollar reserves fell from 73% in 2001 to 58.4% in 2023, the share has stabilized since 2021. JPMorgan concludes that fears of a rapid U.S. dollar collapse are overstated, saying erosion of its role would take decades, not years.

Trump’s Escalating Anti-BRICS Stance
President Donald Trump has sharpened rhetoric against BRICS nations, threatening 100% tariffs on countries moving away from the dollar. His approach toward India has been particularly volatile, swinging from labeling it a “dead economy” to reaffirming U.S.-India ties.

These tensions highlight the political flashpoints driving speculation about dollar stability, even as structural realities keep the greenback secure.

BRICS Push for Alternatives
Despite JPMorgan’s confidence, BRICS nations continue to pursue alternatives:

• Russia and China are expanding non-dollar payment systems.

• India is extending its digital payment network to regional partners.

Still, JPMorgan cautions that fragmentation of international payments is a bigger near-term risk than outright de-dollarization.

Market Reality vs. Political Rhetoric
Financial voices emphasize the gap between BRICS ambitions and global trade realities.

Ted Jenkin, CEO of oXYGen Financial, noted: “With the exception of Europe, the dollar is the most widely used currency by far around the world.”

Even China, while cutting U.S. Treasury holdings, increased purchases of other U.S. securities, signaling continued reliance on dollar assets.

According to the Federal Reserve, 60% of international claims remain dollar-denominated, unchanged since 2000 and far above the euro’s 20%.

Why This Matters
While BRICS nations push for de-dollarization, the U.S. dollar remains the cornerstone of global finance. JPMorgan’s analysis suggests that structural advantages, institutional trust, and widespread usage ensure its dominance will endure well beyond today’s political disputes.

Gold Telegraph: The World is Changing by the Day

Gold Telegraph: The World is Changing by the Day

9-8-2025

BREAKING NEWS: POLAND’S CENTRAL BANK GOVERNOR PLANS TO PROPOSE AN INCREASE IN THE TARGET FOR GOLD AS A PERCENTAGE OF RESERVES TO 30% FROM 20%

It is starting to add up. Boom…

“Poland’s central bank Governor Adam Glapinski plans to propose an increase in the target for gold as a percentage of reserves to 30% from 20% currently, he said…”

Source: https://www.reuters.com/world/india/gold-slips-after-record-rally-us-payrolls-report-radar-2025-09-04/

Job growth BADLY missed expectations in August. Here comes the rate cut… Spot gold is surging again right now.

Gold is sending a very loud message all over the world. There is a reason why gold is one of the most FEARED assets globally. This is getting wild.

Tether. The world’s largest stablecoin is in talks about investing in gold miners. Connecting the virtual and physical world… I am really starting to get trolled.

Fiat currencies are absolutely being destroyed against gold. Why would there be mercy when paper money can just be printed? You don’t have to be an Einstein to understand this… However, Gold bugs are starting to look pretty smart.

The best opportunities aren’t found by chasing… they are unlocked by recognizing patterns. What the market once despised is now what the world is mesmerized by: Gold. The movie is getting good, no?

At Beaver Creek last year, I asked @Frank_Giustra a simple question: When will capital flow back into miners? The industry was broken then. Now? Things have changed massively. The lesson? Broken sometimes represents a huge opportunity.

BREAKING NEWS: THE UNITED STATES IS CALLING FOR AN INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF THE US CENTRAL BANK, INCLUDING ITS MONETARY POLICY.

Change is in the air.

“Bessent criticized the Fed for expanding beyond its mandate, including pumping too much stimulus via quantitative easing and undertaking excessive regulation of the banking system…”

Source: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-09-05/bessent-urges-independent-fed-review-criticizes-excess-stimulus

BREAKING NEWS: A SECOND TANKER CARRYING LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS FROM A US-SANCTIONED RUSSIAN EXPORT PLANT HAS ARRIVED IN CHINA

Another one.

“The LSEG tracking data indicated the Russian Voskhod LNG tanker was anchored at an LNG terminal in the port of Tieshan in China’s southwestern province of Guangxi…”

Source: https://www.reuters.com/world/china/second-known-tanker-carrying-sanctioned-russian-arctic-lng-berths-china-2025-09-06/

The People’s Bank of China increased its gold holdings in August for the 10th month. Again. The diversification away from the dollar is REAL. Gold is at the center of it all.

Africa holds around 30% of the world’s critical mineral reserves, and it’s fast becoming the battleground between East and West for control. Don’t overlook this story… or Botswana, a nation poised to play a big role in the years ahead. The next big trend…

“Lithium batteries.”

Don’t be fooled. Less than 10% is lithium. Nearly HALF of the cathode is nickel… the true backbone of the EV battery. Again: Half nickel. That’s where the real story lies. It’s why @elonmusk told miners in 2020: “Please mine more nickel. Tesla will give you a giant contract for a long period of time…”

A key story that many people missed this week? Germany is warning Europe… If China keeps outbidding Europe for copper scrap, a critical supply chain will be destroyed. This is about sovereignty, not just metal. Leaders are finally starting to wake up.

BREAKING NEWS: CHINA IS MOVING TO RESUME ITS DOMESTIC BOND MARKET WITH TOP RUSSIAN ENERGY COMPANIES

Energy…

“Russian ‘panda bond’ sales would be first since 2017 and reflect deepening ties between Moscow and Beijing…”

Source: https://www.ft.com/content/ee8ddacb-79be-4000-a1ed-716d52c60a37

As I have been saying for years: Watch the petrodollar. China is opening its bond market to Russian energy giants. With yuan financing and the Power of Siberia 2 pipeline, energy flows are shifting away from the dollar and the petrodollar era. The world is changing by the day.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

SEC Launches Cross-Border Pump-and-Dump Prevention Task Force

The new initiative targets market manipulation schemes and signals future reforms for crypto assets.

A New SEC Task Force
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has unveiled a new Cross-Border Task Force aimed at protecting American investors from fraud. The initiative will focus on foreign companies that attempt to skirt U.S. oversight through schemes like pump-and-dump operations.

SEC Chair Paul S. Atkins emphasized: “We welcome companies from around the world seeking access to the U.S. capital markets. But we will not tolerate bad actors… that attempt to use international borders to frustrate and avoid U.S. investor protections.”

The task force will consolidate investigative resources and give the SEC broader reach against transnational fraud.

Crypto Reform on the Horizon
Atkins linked the new initiative to the SEC’s Project Crypto, which supports President Donald Trump’s push to make the U.S. the world’s crypto capital. He signaled that the regulator is preparing to overhaul how digital assets are treated under securities law.

“We will work to bring crypto asset distributions back to America. The days of convoluted offshore corporate structures, decentralization theater, and confusion over security status are over,” Atkins said.

He added that the SEC had previously discouraged crypto-based capital raising, pushing innovation offshore. The new approach seeks to reverse that trend and restore opportunities for investors.

Why This Matters
The SEC’s new task force reflects a broader shift: tighter scrutiny on global market manipulation and a coming reset in crypto regulation. For U.S. investors, the message is clear—Washington intends to both protect markets from foreign fraud and position America as the center of digital asset innovation.

This Week’s US Economic Calendar: CPI, PPI, and Jobs Data to Watch

Markets brace for key reports that could shape the Fed’s September decision and ripple across stocks, gold, and crypto.

Markets Price in Rate Cut
Traders enter the week with high conviction that the Federal Reserve will cut rates at its September meeting. Futures point to a 96–97% probability, bolstered by weak labor market data showing just 22,000 jobs added in August. Bond yields have slipped, equities are climbing, and gold has reached new highs near $3,588/oz.

Tuesday: Inflation Revision
The week begins with a BLS 12-month inflation data revision. If revisions trend higher, it could pressure the Fed and weigh on Bitcoin and Ethereum. Softer numbers may instead provide relief for risk assets.

Wednesday: Producer Price Index
Midweek brings the Producer Price Index (PPI). Rising wholesale prices would signal sticky inflation, a negative for risk assets. A cooler PPI, however, could give crypto markets room for a rebound.

Thursday: CPI and OPEC in Focus
Thursday is the most critical day, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for August released alongside OPEC’s monthly oil report. Rising energy costs could intensify inflation concerns, creating a double catalyst for volatility in equities and digital assets.

Friday: Consumer Sentiment and Inflation Expectations
The week ends with the University of Michigan survey, offering a look at consumer sentiment and inflation expectations. Persistent price concerns could dampen market confidence, while optimism might fuel a late-week rally in crypto.

Why This Matters
With inflation still the Fed’s central concern, this week’s data could set the tone for the final quarter of 2025. Traders are watching bonds, commodities, and crypto closely as the Fed’s next move—and broader risk appetite—comes into focus.

Ripple’s SEC Battle Is Over: Time To Challenge SWIFT?

With legal clarity finally secured, Ripple turns back to its original mission: competing with the world’s dominant payments network.

Ripple Clears Its Legal Hurdle
Ripple has ended its long-running battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, bringing long-sought legal clarity to XRP, now trading near $2.93. The settlement removes a major obstacle that has hung over the company since 2020 and allows Ripple to refocus on building its payments network.

How Ripple Compares to SWIFT
The Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT), established in 1973, processes over 53 million messages daily across 220 countries. While SWIFT is deeply entrenched, critics argue its system is outdated:

• Transactions often take several days and involve high fees.

• One in 10 transactions fails, while one in 20 settles late.

• Even with ISO 20022 upgrades by late 2025, many see SWIFT as “legacy tech” reliant on XML.

By contrast, Ripple’s blockchain ledger offers:

• Near-instant settlement

• Lower costs

• Greater transparency and traceability

CEO Brad Garlinghouse has long framed Ripple as a modern alternative to SWIFT, saying as early as 2018 that the company was “taking over SWIFT” by signing banks and remittance firms onto the XRP Ledger.

Why SWIFT Still Holds the Advantage
Despite Ripple’s momentum, the banking sector remains slow to change. Blockchain advocates note that replacing SWIFT’s infrastructure could take 5–7 years and cost hundreds of millions of dollars. Banks continue using SWIFT because it is already universal, trusted, and familiar.

As Ripple’s Cassie Craddock put it, “Scaling to the level of traditional providers requires tackling two key hurdles: usability and regulation.”

The Role of Regulation and Stablecoins
Ripple now benefits from unique legal clarity on XRP, but broader adoption also hinges on regulatory frameworks like the GENIUS Act, which sets rules for stablecoin issuers. Ripple’s own stablecoin, Ripple USD, is being positioned as a bridge between blockchain innovation and traditional finance.

“Stablecoins are simple, pegged to the dollar, and behave like cash,” Craddock noted, adding that this familiarity is key to winning over institutions.

Can Ripple Truly Challenge SWIFT?
SWIFT’s ubiquity is its strongest moat. For Ripple to compete, it must overcome regulatory inconsistencies, risk-averse banks, and skepticism over XRP liquidity. Still, U.S. policymakers are creating space for private digital assets to complement traditional finance — and Ripple is well positioned to benefit.

As Garlinghouse said earlier this year, “The market opportunity is massive in the U.S… there’s an opportunity to modernize the payment systems from SWIFT.”

Why This Matters
Ripple’s victory over the SEC marks a turning point, but SWIFT remains a formidable incumbent. The battle ahead is not legal but structural: convincing banks and regulators that blockchain can deliver efficiency, security, and compliance at global scale.
