The Dollar Is Rising Sharply Towards Its Biggest Monthly Gain.

Money and Business   Economy News - Follow-up   The dollar has risen sharply and is on track for its biggest monthly gain in a year on Thursday, as traders bet on higher interest rates in the United States.

The dollar broke through the 1.14 level against the euro this week, reaching its strongest level in 13 months at $1.1325 overnight, before settling in Asian trading at around $1.1353.

The dollar index, which measures the performance of the US currency against a basket of six other major currencies, hit a 13-month high of 101.8 overnight and opened the Asian trading session at around 101.6.

The war with Iran and the sharp rise in oil prices have shifted market expectations for a US interest rate cut this year, and the hawkish tone adopted by the new Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh last week has led traders to expect an interest rate hike by last October. https://www.economy-news.net/content.php?id=70670

Al-Nassiri: The Rise In The Dollar Exchange Rate In The Parallel Market Is Temporary, And Maintaining The General Price Level Is Under Control.

Money and Business   Economy News - Baghdad  Economic and banking advisor Samir Al-Nassiri stated on Thursday that the rise in the exchange rate of the US dollar in the parallel market is temporary and is due to rumors and speculation in the markets, stressing that there is no risk of an increase in the costs of importing basic commodities.

  Al-Nassiri explained to “Al-Eqtisad News” that only 5% of the dollars that the Central Bank sells daily to travelers are traded in the black market, and the remainder falls into the hands of speculators who manipulate prices.

He explained that the remaining 95% is secured by the Central Bank at the official rate for traders to import from abroad, and therefore there is no risk of an increase in the prices of imported basic commodities. The overall level of food and basic commodities is under control.

 According to Al-Nassiri, "The fluctuation in the dollar exchange rate is due to speculators and economic variables because of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the effects of the regional war." 

He stressed that this situation is temporary, and the exchange rate will gradually stabilize as conditions in the region calm down, the Strait of Hormuz is opened, and oil exports resume in the planned export quantities.

Gold Plunges To A 7-Month Low, Pressured By The Dollar

Money and Business    Economy News - Follow-up   Gold prices continued their decline on Thursday, hitting their lowest level in more than seven months, affected by the strength of the dollar.

By 09:45 Moscow time, gold futures for August had fallen 0.29% to $3,997 an ounce.

Meanwhile, spot contracts for the yellow metal fell by 0.52% to $3,978.59 an ounce, after hitting their lowest level since November 2025 on Wednesday.

The price of gold fell below the key $4,000 per ounce level yesterday under pressure from a rising dollar and expectations that the Federal Reserve (the US central bank) will raise interest rates.

According to the CME FedWatch tool, traders expect three US interest rate hikes this year, and see a roughly 67 percent chance of a hike in September.

The dollar rose for the third consecutive day yesterday to its highest level in 13 months, increasing the cost of gold for buyers holding other currencies.

Investors are awaiting the release of US personal consumption expenditures data, the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge, due later today, for further clues about monetary policy. https://www.economy-news.net/content.php?id=70676

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

DOJ Defends CLARITY Act, Rejects Law Enforcement Criticism as Senate Debate Intensifies

The U.S. Department of Justice is defending the CLARITY Act after several major law enforcement organizations warned the legislation could weaken oversight of digital assets and create opportunities for criminal activity. 

Overview

• The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has publicly defended the CLARITY Act, calling recent criticism from law enforcement organizations "factually inaccurate."

• Four national law enforcement associations had urged the White House to reconsider portions of the legislation, arguing that key provisions could reduce regulatory oversight and complicate financial crime investigations.

• The DOJ maintains that the bill preserves existing criminal enforcement powers while providing long-awaited regulatory clarity for the digital asset industry.

Key Developments

1. DOJ Rejects Opposition Letter

On June 24, a DOJ spokesperson responded to a joint letter submitted by several national law enforcement organizations opposing portions of the CLARITY Act.

According to the Department of Justice, the letter "contains factual inaccuracies and mischaracterizes Administration policy," emphasizing that the legislation would not hinder criminal investigations involving digital assets.

2. Law Enforcement Groups Voice Concerns

The opposition letter was signed by leaders of the National District Attorneys Association (NDAA), National Association of Assistant U.S. Attorneys (NAAUSA), International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), and the National Sheriffs' Association.

Together representing more than 70,000 law enforcement professionals, the organizations warned that certain provisions—particularly Section 604 of the CLARITY Act—could create regulatory gaps that sophisticated criminal organizations might exploit.

3. Debate Centers on Developer Protections

At the heart of the dispute is the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA) language incorporated into the CLARITY Act.

Law enforcement officials argue that broad exemptions for some blockchain developers and decentralized technology participants could reduce accountability and complicate enforcement efforts involving money laundering, ransomware, terrorism financing, fraud, and other financial crimes.

DOJ officials disagree, stating that the legislation does not exempt criminal conduct or prevent investigators from pursuing illegal activity involving digital assets.

4. DOJ Says Enforcement Authority Remains Intact

The Justice Department stressed that law enforcement access to relevant information would remain unchanged under the proposed legislation.

According to the DOJ, investigators would retain full authority to pursue cases involving drug trafficking, human smuggling, terrorism financing, fraud, and other digital asset-related crimes, while the legislation simply clarifies which entities fall under existing regulatory frameworks.

5. Senate Negotiations Continue

The latest exchange highlights the ongoing debate as lawmakers continue refining the CLARITY Act before a potential Senate vote.

Supporters argue the legislation will provide the legal certainty needed to encourage innovation and institutional investment, while critics continue seeking additional safeguards to strengthen anti-money laundering and consumer protection provisions.

Why It Matters

The CLARITY Act remains one of the most consequential digital asset bills currently under consideration in Congress. Its outcome could shape how cryptocurrencies, blockchain developers, exchanges, and decentralized finance platforms are regulated in the United States for years to come, potentially influencing global regulatory standards as well.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

For investors watching the evolution of the global financial system, clear digital asset regulation represents another step toward integrating blockchain technology into mainstream finance. Regulatory certainty could accelerate institutional adoption, strengthen digital payment infrastructure, and support broader modernization of cross-border financial markets.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1:  Digital Finance

The continuing debate over the CLARITY Act illustrates how governments are building the regulatory foundation for the next generation of digital financial infrastructure.

• Pillar 2:  Financial Governance

Balancing innovation with transparency, national security, and financial crime prevention remains central as policymakers reshape the future of global financial markets.

This is not just about cryptocurrency—it reflects the broader effort to modernize financial regulation while building the legal framework for tomorrow's digital economy.

VND vs. IQD, Why Both Countries Avoided Currency Adjustments

VND vs. IQD, Why Both Countries Avoided Currency Adjustments

Edu Matrix:  6-24-2026

The economic trajectories of nations emerging from significant conflict offer fascinating insights into global finance and development.

A recent Edu Matrix video hosted by Sandy Ingram brilliantly illustrates this through a compelling comparison of the Vietnamese dong (VND) and the Iraqi dinar (IQD).

While both Vietnam and Iraq endured profound conflicts with the United States and their governments maintain tight currency controls, their post-war economic and monetary journeys have unfolded in remarkably different ways, shaping their engagement with the global economy.

Vietnam, under its communist regime, has strategically embraced an export-driven manufacturing economy complemented by substantial foreign investment.

The nation has deliberately managed the Vietnamese dong to remain relatively stable but weak, a key tactic to bolster its export competitiveness on the world stage.

This forward-thinking approach has fueled impressive economic growth, transforming Vietnam into a significant manufacturing hub. Furthermore, the country’s booming tourism industry now contributes a remarkable 8-9% to its Gross Domestic Product, attracting global visitors and expatriates alike, and further showcasing its successful integration into global markets.

 This economic strategy, rooted in reforms initiated around 1986, vividly demonstrates a nation leveraging strategic currency management for long-term prosperity.

In stark contrast, Iraq’s economic landscape remains heavily reliant on its oil revenues. The Iraqi central bank continues to exert strict control over the dinar, a necessity driven by ongoing banking reforms, the imperative for international integration, and a persistent, challenging security environment.

While the Iraqi dinar, like the Vietnamese dong, experiences deliberate suppression by its government, Iraq’s financial environment appears more constrained and fragile. The incomplete nature of its banking reforms and the ongoing security concerns significantly limit the dinar’s international value and broader utility, presenting a more complex picture for foreign investment and global economic interaction.

Sandy Ingram’s analysis in the Edu Matrix video underscores a crucial distinction: despite sharing similar experiences of conflict and governmental currency control, Vietnam’s willingness to engage openly with global markets, attract tourists, and welcome foreign investors has fostered a more robust and open economy. Its currency is managed strategically to promote sustained economic growth and international collaboration.

Conversely, Iraq’s journey, while aiming for stability, faces more entrenched obstacles that temper its potential for dynamic global engagement. The video serves as a powerful testament to how strategic economic choices and openness can dramatically reshape a nation’s post-conflict destiny, inviting invaluable lessons for observers of international monetary policy and economic development.

For a deeper dive into these unique economic narratives and further expert insights, be sure to watch the full video from Edu Matrix.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Wednesday Evening 6-24-26

Parliamentary Finance Committee Denies Any Intention To Raise The Exchange Rate

Information/Baghdad...  Member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, MP Mudhar al-Karawi, confirmed on Wednesday that there is no current intention to raise the dollar exchange rate.

Al-Karawi told Al-Maalouma, “Until this moment, there are no confirmed indications from the government to proceed with raising the dollar exchange rate.” He pointed out that "the government and its financial arms are committed to stabilizing the exchange rate in institutions to maintain the stability of the financial situation and prevent any price increases that would affect the markets."

He added that "any increase in the exchange rate will be directly reflected in prices, especially food items, which would place an additional burden on the poor and the less fortunate." He explained that "any potential increase in the dollar exchange rate would have clear economic repercussions."

Al-Karawi clarified that "although there are no current indications in this direction, this option may be considered at some point." He stressed "the necessity of providing mechanisms and guarantees to protect the situation of the poor and the less fortunate and prevent price increases for basic commodities in the event of any future decision."

Oil Plunges To Four-Month Low On Hormuz Progress

2026-06-24 Shafaq News   Oil prices fell more than 1% on Wednesday, extending this week's losses and trading near four-month lows, on signs that more oil tankers stranded in the Gulf are set to move out of the Strait of Hormuz.

Brent crude futures fell 78 cents, or 1.0%, at $76.30 a barrel as of 0350 GMT. U.S. West Texas Intermediate slipped 78 cents, or 1.1%, to $72.43 a barrel.

Both benchmarks settled down around 1% on Tuesday, touching their lowest levels since early March.

"Positive signals from the Persian Gulf are fuelling optimism about oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz. Vessel ⁠crossings increased in recent days, although they remain well below pre-war levels," ING commodity strategists said in a note on Wednesday.

Prices have also come under pressure this week after Washington granted Tehran a 60-day sanctions waiver following initial peace talks, allowing it to sell oil, and as hostilities in Lebanon eased.

"Crude oil prices were weighed down by hopes of easing U.S.-Iran tensions and a recovery in oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz," said Tomomichi Akuta, senior economist at Mitsubishi UFJ Research and Consulting.

"Further progress in nuclear negotiations could push prices back to pre-war levels," he added.

On Tuesday, Oman and Iran agreed to press on with discussions about the future administration of navigation in the Strait. U.S. ⁠Secretary of State Marco Rubio said any Iranian attempt to levy transit fees would violate international law.

Still, uncertainty remains over the durability of the accord. U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that Iran had agreed to nuclear inspections into "infinity," while Tehran said it had made no such concession in negotiations.

Investors are also watching how quickly Middle Eastern producers can restore exports and whether more ⁠ships will enter the region.

An Iranian military source told Fars news agency that a limited number of vessels are being allowed to pass through the strait each day under coordination with Iran's Revolutionary Guards Navy.

Ship-tracking data showed that three stranded supertankers passed through the strait ⁠on Tuesday. The U.N. shipping agency said an evacuation plan to enable hundreds of ships with 11,000 seafarers stranded in the Gulf to sail through the strait is underway after the U.S.-Iran ceasefire deal.

Meanwhile, crude stocks fell by 765,000 barrels ⁠in the week ended June 19, market sources said, citing data from the American Petroleum Institute released on Tuesday. Nine analysts polled by Reuters estimated, on average, that crude inventories fell by about 4.5 million barrels in the last week.

Basrah Crudes Drop Alongside Global Decline

2026-06-24   Shafaq News- Basrah  Iraq’s Basrah crude plunged more than 4% on Wednesday as major global benchmarks moved lower.

Basrah Heavy crude dropped to $45.78 per barrel, losing 4.09%, while Basrah Medium crude slipped to $47.88 per barrel, down 3.91%.

Brent crude edged down to $76.30 per barrel, shedding 78 cents, or 1%. US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude retreated to $72.43 per barrel, down 78 cents, or 1.1%.

Most crude grades across Arab and global benchmarks recorded losses, with Saudi Arabia’s Arab Light crude shedding 2.52% to $78.69 per barrel, while the UAE’s Das crude declined 2.90% to $69.31 and Qatar Marine crude decreased 2.91% to $69.01. OPEC’s basket also fell 1.89% to $81.59 per barrel. Dubai crude eased 1.15% to $80.35.

Iraq Sets Two-Week Timeline For Kirkuk-Ceyhan Trial Pumping

2026-06-24 Shafaq News- Kirkuk   Trial pumping through the Kirkuk-Ceyhan oil route will begin within two weeks after the state-run North Oil Company finalized all engineering and technical work needed to restart the Iraq-Turkiye pipeline, a senior company source told Shafaq News on Wednesday, paving the way for the resumption of stable exports.

The company has also restored the strategic Kirkuk-Baiji-Haditha-Basra route, allowing crude from southern fields to reach gathering stations in Kirkuk before being pumped to the Turkish port of Ceyhan. Operating the two lines together would provide greater flexibility in managing crude flows, strengthen Iraq's northern export capacity, and improve the efficiency of the country's oil transport network, the source added.

Earlier this month, SOMO chief Ali Nizar told Reuters that Iraq had formally requested a one-year extension of the agreement governing the Kirkuk-Ceyhan pipeline, which is due to expire on July 27, to allow more time for negotiations on a new export arrangement. Reuters, citing a senior Turkish official, reported that Ankara opposes extending the current deal under existing conditions.

Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan recently discussed exports through the Kirkuk-Ceyhan pipeline and ways to boost Iraq's oil flows to European markets through existing infrastructure.

Hantoush Reveals The Priorities Of The New Central Bank Governor: Implementing "Oliver Wyman" Standards Is Of Utmost Importance

Economy News – Baghdad    Economic expert Mustafa Hantoush revealed on Monday the priorities of the new Central Bank Governor, Nizar Nasser, stressing that the standards of the Oliver Wyman Foundation are imposing a new banking reality in Iraq.

Hantoush explained to "Al-Eqtisad News" that the appointment of Nizar Nasser to this position represents a fundamental step for Iraqi monetary policy, noting that the next phase will focus on two main sectors: achieving monetary stability and restructuring the banking system.

Hantoush explained that "the Iraqi banking system, especially the private sector, has suffered from severe restrictions in the past that led to the freezing of about $10 billion, which poses a real risk to any market."

He added that the central bank has begun a series of important reforms in cooperation with the Oliver Wyman Foundation, which have reached final meetings with the US Treasury with the aim of freeing the banking system from dollar restrictions, something the market has been waiting for for months.

The economist pointed out that "restoring the banking system to operate on sound foundations represents the beginning of a sound monetary policy, as Oliver Wyman's standards impose a new reality in which banks are not only required to make profits, but are also obliged to attract deposits, provide loans, and finance projects."

Hantoush stressed that "pushing towards an integrated banking system in terms of operations and the market value of shares is a priority, as the continuous increase in capital for banks has become undesirable because it leads to a collapse in the share price on the stock exchange, stressing that these files will be at the forefront of the new governor's concerns."

Al-Aboudi: Al-Zidi Deals With Combating Corruption Far Removed From Any Political Or Electoral Calculations And Works To Save The Country

 latest news   Wednesday,   June 24, 2026   Baghdad - One News - 6/24/2026  Government spokesman Haider al-Aboudi confirmed that Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi is dealing with the anti-corruption file without any political or electoral considerations, noting that his personality and previous experience have made him more capable of making decisions related to running the state and confronting corruption. 

Al-Aboudi said that Al-Zidi is not seeking a second term, will not run in the next elections, and does not have a project to establish a political party, which keeps him away from the pressures and obligations associated with political competition. 

He added that the absence of these considerations gives the Prime Minister more room to deal with state files, citizens’ affairs and combating corruption from the perspective of the public interest, away from any constraints or prior calculations. 

Al-Aboudi pointed out that Al-Zaydi is focused on saving what can be saved and addressing the challenges facing the state, stressing that corruption is one of the most dangerous issues that threaten state institutions and requires taking decisive measures to confront it.  https://1news-iq.net/العبودي-الزيدي-يتعامل-مع-مكافحة-الفسا/

Parliamentary Integrity: Important Files Whose Details Will Be Revealed To The Public

Money and Business   Economy News – Baghdad   The Parliamentary Integrity Committee revealed that there are many important files that are being prepared to be opened and their details revealed to the public, especially those related to the waste of public money and the exploitation of official influence.

Shahid said, according to the official newspaper and followed by “Al-Eqtisad News”, that “corruption is no longer just individual cases or limited violations, but has turned into an intertwined system that has directly affected government performance and weakened citizens’ trust in state institutions.”

He added that “taking serious measures to curb the influence of corrupt individuals within state institutions would pave the way for the more efficient implementation of government and service programs, as well as contribute to achieving social justice and equal opportunities among citizens.”

The MP stressed that "the current stage requires a firm political will and practical measures that go beyond slogans and promises," stressing that "there are many important files that are being prepared to be opened and their details revealed to the public, especially those related to the waste of public money and the exploitation of official influence."

Trade: Lower Shipping Costs Will Be Reflected In Commodity Prices

Money and Business      Economy News – Baghdad   The Ministry of Commerce announced on Wednesday an integrated plan to enhance strategic reserves and combat monopolies, while noting that the decrease in shipping costs will be reflected in commodity prices during the coming period.

Ministry spokesman Mohammed Hanoun said that "the return of maritime traffic to normal through the Strait of Hormuz, and the arrival of ships loaded with food and basic goods, represents an important factor in strengthening the stability of local markets, especially since any disruption in maritime transport routes is directly reflected in shipping and insurance costs and the prices of imported goods."

Hannon added that "the Ministry of Trade is continuously monitoring market movements and price indicators for food and basic commodities, and will assess the impact of reduced transportation and shipping costs after the resumption of normal shipping operations, ensuring that this is reflected in the prices traded in local markets."

He explained that "the improved flow of supplies and the increased volume of goods offered lead to a reduction in the pressures that some goods experienced during the past period."

He stressed that “the ministry has a work plan based on several axes, most notably strengthening the strategic stock of basic materials, monitoring the smooth entry of goods through various ports, as well as coordinating with the competent regulatory authorities to monitor any cases of monopoly or exploitation that may lead to keeping prices at high levels despite the disappearance of the reasons that led to their rise.”

He pointed out that "the ministry is working to provide accurate indicators of market activity and the available quantities of food products, which contributes to achieving a balance between supply and demand and preventing any shortages that may affect price stability."

He added that "the continued flow of goods at normal rates will give the market greater flexibility and enhance competition between importers and traders, which will have a positive impact on the consumer."

He pointed out that "the ministry's goal is to maintain food security and ensure the availability of basic commodities for citizens at fair prices," stressing "the continuation of monitoring procedures and field follow-up during the next phase to ensure that the market and the consumer benefit from any decrease in import, transportation and shipping costs."

Japan Plans To Improve The Management Of Reserves Allocated To Support The Yen

Money and Business   Economy News - Follow-up   A draft report on Japan's growth strategy, seen by Reuters on Wednesday, shows the government plans to explore ways to improve the management of its $1.3 trillion foreign exchange reserves, which are considered a "reserve" for future intervention in the yen market.

The plans reflect the Japanese government's desire to boost reserve returns and help refinance its dwindling finances, as Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi pledges proactive spending to support the world's fourth-largest economy.

The draft strategy, a key pillar of Takaichi's policy agenda, states: "The government will examine the benefits of improving the management of assets owned by the public sector, including the special account of the foreign exchange fund, and making more effective use of them, taking into account their intended purposes."

Financial markets: Currency yen near 40-year low despite Japanese interest rate hike

Tokyo resumed intensive intervention in late April when the currency fell to over 160 yen to the dollar, through a $73 billion yen purchase, resulting in a record 5.6% drop in reserves in May, highlighting the limits of continued and large-scale intervention.

The draft strategy does not specify particular changes to the allocation of reserve assets, which have accumulated during previous interventions to buy dollars and are believed to be largely invested in U.S. Treasury bonds.

The bulk of the surplus reserves, including proceeds from US Treasury bonds, is transferred to the general account as a source of funding for the state budget.

Takaichi had once stated that foreign reserves were the main beneficiary of the yen's weakness and that they were "performing very well," a remark some government officials interpreted as a sign that she hoped to use the surplus to fund a controversial plan to suspend the consumption tax on food items.

However, government officials said that making a radical change to the reserve portfolio would be unrealistic, given that the reserves are held primarily as a readily available source of funds for intervention in the currency market.

An informed source, who declined to be identified due to the confidentiality of the report, said, "It will be difficult to pursue returns in a way that conflicts with the purpose of the reserves." https://www.economy-news.net/content.php?id=70646

CLARITY Act Approval Odds Drop as White House Faces Law Enforcement Pushback

Major U.S. law enforcement organizations are urging changes to the CLARITY Act, warning that several provisions could weaken anti-money laundering enforcement and create regulatory gaps within the digital asset industry.

Overview

• The probability of the CLARITY Act advancing has declined, with prediction markets dropping approval odds to 41% following new opposition from national law enforcement organizations.

• More than 70,000 law enforcement professionals are represented in a letter sent to the White House expressing concerns over key provisions in the legislation.

• The primary concern centers on the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA), with critics arguing that certain exemptions could make it more difficult to investigate and prosecute financial crimes involving digital assets.

Key Developments

1. White House Receives Joint Law Enforcement Letter

A coalition of leading law enforcement organizations—including the National District Attorneys Association (NDAA), National Association of Assistant U.S. Attorneys (NAAUSA), International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), and the National Sheriffs' Association—submitted a letter to Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and White House crypto advisor Patrick Witt.

While supporting the creation of a clear regulatory framework for digital assets, the organizations cautioned that several provisions of the CLARITY Act could unintentionally weaken law enforcement's ability to combat financial crime.

2. BRCA Developer Protections Under Scrutiny

The coalition specifically highlighted Section 604, which incorporates elements of the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA).

The groups warned that broad exemptions for certain blockchain participants could create regulatory blind spots, allowing bad actors to exploit gaps in oversight while shielding activities that facilitate the movement of digital assets.

3. Concerns Over AML and Terrorist Financing

The letter argues that portions of the legislation could weaken existing Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter-Terrorism Financing (CFT) safeguards.

Law enforcement officials expressed concern that certain decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms, mixers, tumblers, and other market participants could avoid registration, Know Your Customer (KYC), and Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) requirements if the current language remains unchanged.

4. Prediction Markets React

• Following publication of the letter, Polymarket's estimated odds of CLARITY Act approval reportedly fell from approximately 55% to 41%, reflecting growing uncertainty over the bill's path through Congress.

• The decline illustrates how political developments continue influencing expectations surrounding major cryptocurrency legislation.

Why It Matters

The CLARITY Act is widely viewed as one of the most significant pieces of U.S. digital asset legislation under consideration. While lawmakers seek regulatory certainty that could encourage innovation and institutional investment, policymakers must also balance those goals with maintaining effective safeguards against financial crime.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

For those following broader monetary and financial system developments, digital asset regulation represents another important step in the modernization of global financial infrastructure. Clear regulatory frameworks could accelerate institutional adoption of blockchain technology while shaping how future cross-border payment systems interact with both traditional currencies and digital assets.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1:  Digital Finance 

The CLARITY Act reflects ongoing efforts to establish the legal framework needed for broader institutional participation in digital assets and blockchain-based financial markets.

• Pillar 2:  Financial Oversight

The debate highlights the growing challenge of balancing technological innovation with regulatory transparency, anti-money laundering enforcement, and national security concerns as the global financial system evolves.

This is not just about cryptocurrency—it reflects the continuing effort to build a modern financial system that balances innovation, market growth, and regulatory accountability for the digital economy.

Get Ready for “Business Friendly Socialism”

Get Ready for “Business Friendly Socialism”

Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black / Sovereign Man) June 22, 2026

On New Year's Day in the year 1829, a 29-year-old young lady from Washington DC named Peggy Timberlake married John Eaton— a powerful senator from Tennessee.   Eaton was also close friends with the incoming president Andrew Jackson.

Peggy, on the other hand, was rumored to be somewhat of a harlot. She was openly flirtatious and allegedly promiscuous, and her wedding to Sen. Eaton came only a few months after the mysterious death of her first husband.

The elite “power wives” of Washington DC considered Peggy scandalous and immoral, and so they simply refused to engage with her. They would not attend any event where Peggy would be present. They would not invite her to their parties. They spoke ill of her behind her back.

So when Andrew Jackson made Sen. Eaton his Secretary of War in March of 1829, the snub against Peggy became a federal problem.

President Jackson, whose own late wife had been savaged by similar gossip during the brutal 1828 campaign, took the shunning of Peggy as a personal insult. And he actually demanded that his cabinet bring their wives into line and accept her.

Jackson’s cabinet could not (or would not) demand this of their wives. And for more than two years, the so-called “Petticoat Affair” consumed federal attention.

It finally ended in the spring of 1831 with something America had never seen: Jackson’s entire cabinet resigned except for the Postmaster General. The Secretaries of State, Treasury, etc. all left. Even Eaton as Secretary of War resigned.

In short, a dispute over whether the power wives of Washington were willing to invite another lady to dinner had resulted in the effective dissolution of the executive branch.

Nearly two centuries later, that remains almost unimaginable. High-level resignation is something the American government simply does not do.

In its entire history exactly one president has resigned— Richard Nixon, in 1974, and only to avoid impeachment. 

Only two vice presidents have resigned, including Spiro Agnew in 1973 due to pending criminal charges.

American politicians only give up power under extreme duress— likely a family emergency... or the imminent arrival of a criminal indictment. It is a “from-my-cold-dead-hands” political culture. We even treat a President declining to seek reelection as a major event.

In Britain, by contrast, prime ministers resign all the time. When they lose the confidence of their party, they step down... and the machine produces another.

I used to think that was a genuine strength— that American politics might be healthier if resigning were less taboo.

Keir Starmer is the perfect illustration. By this spring his net approval had collapsed to the lowest rating recorded for any prime minister since Ipsos began measuring in 1977.

Failure didn’t bother him. In fact Starmer’s government kept criminalizing criticism— Britain now jails its own citizens for anti-migrant posts while the actual migrant criminals walk free and receive taxpayer assistance.

Even last month, with dozens in his own party urging him to resign, Starmer remained defiant: "The country expects us to get on with governing. That is what I am doing and what we must do as a cabinet."

What finally forced him out was not voters. Yes, his own party helped push him out after disastrous local elections cost Labour more than a thousand races last month.

But underneath that sat the bond market.

Investors had been dumping British government debt for weeks, and in early May the yield on the 30-year gilt spiked to the highest level in decades.

Bond investors want fiscal restraint. And they had concluded that Starmer would respond to his electoral beating by spending even more money.

So naturally, investors sold their UK government bonds... and the British government’s borrowing costs soared.

This is nothing new; less than four years ago, then Prime Minister Liz Truss resigned after just 44 days because the bond market didn’t like her economic plan. Bond yields surged and the British pound went into free fall.

Calm returned only after Truss resigned in disgrace.

The sad irony is that Starmer's likely successor is worse. Andy Burnham— the longtime mayor of Greater Manchester— campaigns on what he calls "business friendly socialism", which makes as much sense as “vegan wolf”.

He also wants more borrowing, higher taxes, and bringing utilities and "public essentials" back under state control.

Bizarrely, Burnham has complained that Britain is "in hock to the bond markets," as though the people lending to the government should simply hand over their capital with no questions asked.

(Given Mr. Burnham’s penchant for nationalization, he may in fact get his way. I wouldn’t be surprised to see more wealth tax proposals in the UK.)

The actual solution is embarrassingly simple. You are only “in hock to the bond market” if you borrow. Balance the budget, live within your means, and the bond market gets no vote at all.

Yet basic fiscal responsibility is an impossible idea— and it tells you everything about the modern Western politician. This most certainly will not improve under a "business friendly" socialist.

Ultimately, the last institution still imposing any discipline on government is not the voter— it's the creditor. And the United States, with its own debt arithmetic getting worse every year, is approaching that the same line.

One day the bond market will start calling the shots in Washington too, voters' wishes be damned, and it will do it through higher yields and a weaker dollar.

To your freedom,   James Hickman   Co-Founder, Schiff Sovereign LLC

 P.S. In the US, the bond market is already voting, with higher yields and a weaker dollar. And the bill lands on anyone holding those dollars.

The sensible hedge is to own real assets no government can print.

Real assets are tangible things with intrinsic worth— gold and silver, energy, productive land, and the companies that own them— and because no central bank can conjure them into existence, they hold their purchasing power while paper currencies lose theirs.

That's what Schiff Sovereign's investment research newsletter, Strategic Assets, is built to find: companies trading at low multiples of current free cash flow, carrying little or no debt, with strong earnings and a catalyst the market hasn't priced yet.

Reset Intelligence: The New Quantum Order

6-24-2026

Q Is for Quantum

By Reset Intelligence | @EXIT_FIAT

The White House posted four words and a wink, Q is for quantum, and the same afternoon President Trump signed two executive orders on quantum computing.

Scrap the wink and it is the encryption under the whole money system being rebuilt in the open.

The wink and the orders

The official White House feed and the Department of War’s technology account both posted Q-coded language this week, with more than a million views between them. The same afternoon the President signed two orders: one to build a research-grade quantum computer by 2028, the other to prepare the government for machines that c***k today’s encryption. Commerce is already moving billions to the firms racing to get there first.

Why it matters

A working quantum computer breaks the codes that lock every bank account and every transfer. That threat has been on the record since 1994, when a mathematician named Peter Shor proved it. For 30 years it stayed a lab curiosity. This week it became a national sprint, announced from the podium. You do not rebuild the lock on the money unless you are about to run something across it worth that much trouble.

Baghdad on the same clock

Iraq’s central bank issued its first policy statement under its new anti-fraud governor, clearing its restricted banks for re-entry into the dollar system while flatly denying any change to the exchange rate. Clean the books, get counted, get let back in. Same motion as Washington, different capital.

The wider board

• Quantum orders – 2 executive orders, a research-grade quantum computer targeted by 2028, plus a national push to post-quantum encryption

• Iraq CBI – first policy statement under new governor Nizar Nasser, banks in the final stage of dollar re-entry, any rate change denied

• Iran oil – Treasury 60-day license, Iranian crude back on the world market for the first time since 2018

• London – Keir Starmer resigns as UK Prime Minister, Labour leadership contest opens July 9

• The Fed – projections turn hawkish, Bank of America calls 3 hikes by December, with oil the deciding variable

That is the short version, and the moves are public. The daily connection – what it means for the dinar holder and where it points next – is in the brief.

Wed. Iraq News Posted by Tishwash at TNT 6-24-2026

TNT:

Tishwash:  The Iraqi parliament will resume its work at the beginning of July, with the cabinet reshuffle on the agenda.

 Tuesday, MP Duha al-Sadkhan, from the “National Approach” bloc, revealed the date for the start of the second legislative session of the House of Representatives, confirming that the parliament’s leadership will determine during the month of July a date for the resumption of sessions, including a session to complete the vote on the ministerial cabinet.

Al-Sadkhan said that the House of Representatives' legislative recess will end next week, with the second legislative session beginning on July 1st.

She added that the Speaker of the House of Representatives will set the date for the first session after the start of the new legislative term, noting that the agenda will include reading and discussing a number of draft laws, while other laws need to be voted on within the council.

She indicated that the parliament's leadership will determine, during the second or third week of July, a date for holding a session to complete the vote on the cabinet.

The resumption of the House of Representatives' work comes amid anticipation of discussing and approving a number of important and postponed laws, as Al-Sadkhan had previously confirmed the existence of more than 100 draft laws in the halls of parliament, distributed between laws that need to be read and discussed and others that are waiting for amendment or voting.

According to Al-Sadkhan, the new legislative session is expected to witness the discussion and voting on a number of prominent pieces of legislation, most notably the Oil and Gas Law, the Popular Mobilization Forces Law, the Federal Court Law, the Federal Civil Service Council Law, the Retirement Law, and the Salary Scale Law.

The First Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Adnan Faihan, had previously confirmed that there was parliamentary activity to proceed with the legislation of a number of important and delayed laws, most notably the Oil and Gas Law, the Popular Mobilization Forces Law, and the Federal Civil Service Law.

These laws are among the most prominent legislative files postponed during recent parliamentary sessions, especially the oil and gas law, which is still subject to disputes regarding the management of natural resources and the distribution of revenues between the federal government, the Kurdistan Region, and the oil-producing governorates.  link

Tishwash:  Iraq enters the era of space communications... and "Starlink" is the latest fruit of the technological openness led by the Al-Zaidi government.

After years of discussing digital infrastructure modernization and attracting global technology companies, Prime Minister Ali al-Zubaidi's government has achieved a new breakthrough in the telecommunications sector by finalizing the procedures for bringing Starlink service to Iraq.

Experts view this as part of a broader strategy adopted by the government to develop digital infrastructure, promote technological transformation, and open the Iraqi market to global investments in a sector closely linked to economic development and modern services.

American billionaire Elon Musk recently announced the launch of Starlink satellite internet service in Iraq following the official approval of its operating license. This opens the door to a new era of high-speed communication services and reflects the success of the government's efforts to attract global technology companies and modernize the country's digital infrastructure.
Musk stated in a post on the X platform that Iraq had approved the Starlink operating license, paving the way for the launch of satellite internet services within the country. Prime Minister Ali al-Zubaidi and US Special Envoy to Iraq Tom Barrack welcomed the license approval, indicating the project's importance to Iraq and its international partners.

Following directives from Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi, the past period witnessed intensive government meetings and discussions regarding the company's operational mechanisms within Iraq and the requirements for granting a license. This aligns with the government's strategy to attract global technology companies and expand internet service options for citizens.

Starlink's entry represents a strategic development for the Iraqi telecommunications sector, as the service provides internet access to remote, border, and desert areas that have suffered for years from weak traditional infrastructure. Furthermore, it offers higher connection speeds and greater service stability compared to many currently available alternatives.

This development comes after months of government initiatives and technical discussions led by relevant telecommunications sector stakeholders, within a broader approach adopted by al-Zaidi's government to promote digital transformation and attract global technology investments, in parallel with programs to develop electronic infrastructure and expand the scope of government digital services.

Experts believe that the entry of the giant American company represents a new message of confidence in the Iraqi investment environment, especially since Starlink is one of the largest satellite internet projects in the world, and operates in dozens of countries through a wide network of low-orbit satellites.

The project’s benefits are not limited to improving internet services for citizens, but extend to supporting the economic, educational, health and security sectors, by providing more stable communications for government institutions, companies and investment projects, as well as supporting e-government and digital transformation projects that Baghdad seeks to accelerate in the coming years.

Technology expert Nawras Aref said that “Starlink’s entry into Iraq represents an important step towards modernizing the communications sector and raising the efficiency of digital services, especially as the world is rapidly moving towards relying on smart infrastructure and high-speed sustainable connectivity.” 

Aref added to Iraq Observer that “Iraq needs such advanced services because they give users super speeds and internet access in areas that are difficult to cover with traditional terrestrial networks, and they also provide future solutions that support e-learning, digital commerce and smart government services.”

He explained that “the presence of global companies the size of Starlink within the Iraqi market will create a positive competitive environment that will drive the development of local services and raise quality levels, as well as enhance Iraq’s attractiveness to international technology investments.”

In keeping with global trends, experts confirm that the government's success in completing the licensing procedures reflects a clear desire to keep pace with global technological advancements, especially given the growing need for a modern communications infrastructure capable of supporting the demands of the digital economy, foreign investment, artificial intelligence projects, and cloud services.

As the official launch of the service approaches, Iraqis anticipate a new era of internet services, with expectations that Starlink's entry will help bridge the digital divide between cities and remote areas, and open broader horizons for the digital economy and the technological transformation that the government seeks to establish within its development vision for the coming years.  link

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

Tishwash:  Will the "programs and performance" budget succeed in converting funds into services?

Specialists and experts have confirmed that the program and performance budget the government is moving towards implementing represents a significant shift in public spending management. However, it faces implementation challenges related to the readiness of ministries, the efficiency of monitoring, and the ability of institutions to translate financial allocations into tangible services for citizens.

The Prime Minister's financial advisor, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, told Al-Mada that the government is proceeding with the implementation of the program and performance budget, which links financial allocations to measurable performance indicators and results within state institutions. This aims to improve spending efficiency and direct resources towards the most effective programs.

He explained that the new system enhances transparency and financial governance and raises the level of accountability, which could lead to improved public services. However, he also pointed to challenges related to the varying levels of readiness among ministries, weak institutional and information infrastructure, and the need to develop monitoring systems and build administrative capacity.

For her part, Suad al-Maliki, a former member of the Parliamentary Strategic Planning Committee, warned in an interview with Al-Mada against proceeding with a program-based budget for 2027 without evaluating the results of the current budgets. She emphasized that the success of the experiment hinges on the government's ability to effectively implement the 2025 and 2026 budgets.

She explained that the delays in the 2025 budget schedules and the lack of clarity regarding implementation results raise questions about the readiness for the transition to the new system.

She added that the success of this transformation requires political will and coordination between the executive and legislative branches, along with the adoption of transparent standards and each ministry accurately identifying its needs before auditing by central authorities. She noted that the transitional phase may witness gaps due to administrative changes.

Similarly, economic expert Duraid al-Anzi believes that the success of a program-based budget is not linked to changing its name or form, but rather to the state's ability to implement and monitor it.

Speaking to Al-Mada, he said that the fundamental problem lies not in preparing the budgets, but in converting funds into actual projects and services, warning against the continuation of stalled projects that hinder the achievement of results. He added that weak executive efficiency and the absence of integrated economic planning lead to continued waste and a diminished impact of public spending, stressing that genuine reform begins with improving management before increasing allocations.

Al-Anzi pointed out that building an effective economic planning system requires extensive institutional reform that will extend over several years, potentially up to ten, to achieve comprehensive sustainable development. He believes the greatest challenge lies in implementation, not in the plans themselves.

While the government is banking on program and performance budgeting to reorganize public spending and link it to results, the real test remains the ability of state institutions to translate allocations into tangible services that citizens can actually experience. link

Tishwash:  Al-Zaidi to Washington: A partnership of equals to finance productive projects

 All eyes are on the upcoming visit of Prime Minister Ali Faleh al-Zaidi to the United States as a pivotal economic milestone, given the regional and international changes taking place in the region, and the need to reformulate economic relations between Baghdad and Washington on new and viable foundations based on investment, production, and technology transfer, moving beyond just security and oil issues.

Experts believe that the success of the visit scheduled for the middle of next month depends on turning it into a platform for launching strategic projects and feasible economic agreements that contribute to diversifying the Iraqi economy, improving the investment environment, and enhancing Iraq’s position as a regional and international economic partner.

 Comprehensive vision

Amer Al-Jawahiri, an advisor on development and investment, said that the importance of the visit comes after the peace agreements witnessed in the region, and the accompanying comprehensive vision to strengthen economic relations between its countries, which opens the door for the participation of international companies in major reconstruction and development projects, including Iraqi projects.

Al-Jawahiri explained in an interview with Al-Sabah that Iraq faces major challenges, including the delay in implementing steps to diversify the economy and invest its natural resources, in addition to the large size of projects whose implementation requires a long-term government program to which successive governments are committed. He pointed out that addressing the electricity crisis represents one of the most prominent economic tests for the government, in light of the escalating financial obligations and concerns about the inadequacy of oil revenues to cover operational expenses and finance strategic projects.

Visit files

Al-Jawahiri stressed that the current stage requires unifying the economic vision among all concerned parties, calling for the Ministerial Council for the Economy to hold periodic sessions with specialists from outside government institutions and economic advisors to benefit from their expertise in preparing visit files, as well as drawing up the paths of the economic program for Iraq during the next stage.

He pointed out the need for the visit to include presenting specific economic files to the American side, foremost among them addressing the restrictions imposed on a number of Iraqi banks, and increasing flexibility in dealing with the US Federal Reserve, which would positively affect the financial sector and the movement of trade transfers. He stressed the importance of attracting direct American investments or implementing projects in partnership between the Iraqi government and the private sector, according to the model of joint-stock companies with the possibility of offering their shares to finance and operate the projects.

Investment opportunities

He pointed out that Iraq has a number of major investment opportunities, including the Al-Nibras Petrochemical Project, nitrogen fertilizer projects in Basra and Baiji, phosphate fertilizers in Al-Qaim-Akashat, the silica manufacturing project in Anbar, and the extraction and manufacturing of sulfur in Nineveh. He noted that one of the important files is also involving American companies in implementing the Development Road project, which includes railway lines, industrial cities, and production projects aimed at meeting the needs of the local market and boosting exports.

Al-Jawahiri proposed the idea of ​​establishing an Iraqi-American financial investment fund, financed by a portion of Iraqi oil exports to the United States, to be allocated to financing well-studied productive projects that achieve sustainable economic returns. He stressed that the success of this initiative depends on the existence of a clear program and efficient management mechanisms that ensure the actual implementation of the projects.

 He emphasized that the success of any economic understandings requires taking practical steps to improve the business and investment environment through continuous consultation with the Private Sector Development Council, and holding a weekly roundtable that includes specialists and those concerned with the economy and business inside and outside government institutions, in order to give the Iraqi delegation a comprehensive vision that can be presented during its meetings in Washington. He also stressed the importance of stimulating competition among countries and international companies wishing to invest in Iraq, in order to ensure the best offers and the maximum benefit from the available economic potential.

 Comprehensive economic partnership

For his part, financial expert Dr. Nabil Al-Abadi stressed that the visit should not be viewed as a passing diplomatic event, but rather as an economic necessity imposed by the nature of the stage that Iraq is going through, noting that the relationship with the United States has remained for years within the framework of oil and security, while the current stage provides an opportunity to move towards a comprehensive economic partnership.

Al-Abadi told Al-Sabah: “Iraq is not just a source of oil, but it possesses the potential to be a promising market for investments and modern technology, as well as being an important arena for reconstruction and an active partner in supporting the stability of global energy markets.”

He added that the visit represents a practical opportunity to implement the concept of “oil for technology and investment” by attracting major American companies to invest in advanced petrochemical industries, associated gas investment, and renewable energy, which are sectors that would add value to the national economy, support the path of economic diversification, and reduce dependence on oil revenues.

 Financial and banking sector

Al-Abadi pointed out that the most prominent challenge facing the Iraqi economy is the reality of the financial and banking sector, and the challenges it faces related to financial compliance and combating money laundering, which makes it necessary to take advantage of the visit to conduct a direct dialogue with the US Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve with the aim of establishing a safe financial corridor that ensures the smooth flow of financial transfers, enhances the stability of the exchange rate, and raises the level of confidence of international investors in the Iraqi market.

He stressed that Iraq is not looking for aid or grants, but rather for a strategic economic partnership based on common interests, indicating that the success of the visit should be measured by the practical results it achieves, represented in the signing of investment agreements, and the launching of projects in the fields of gas, agriculture, industry and infrastructure, in addition to putting in place clear implementation and follow-up mechanisms that ensure that understandings are transformed into real projects that contribute to building a more diversified and productive Iraqi economy. link

Stephen  If you hold Iraqi dinar and you're hoping, speculating that the dinar will revalue in the near future, I don't see how you cannot be excited right now...Stay grounded.  Stay steadfast because we are entering uncharted territory.  In the last 15 years since I've held Iraqi dinar more has gotten done in the last four months than the entire 15 years  combined...We have never seen so much acceleration, so much movement.  It's almost like there's a deadline somewhere in the near future.

Frank26  Elon Musk made thousands of millionaires last week for the United States of America's economy....[Iraqi's] currency is about to do the same thing. It is going to explode out GDP power of our economy.  The United States of America will explode, which will only benefit many other nations ...We are about to make many millionaires through the Iraqi dinar  investment.  Same as Musk.  Our country is about to explode...You have a new exchange rate coming...Get ready. 

Mnt Goat  ...there is now a solid benchmark set of at least 45% of the economy generating revenues of non-oil based. If you think about this goal then you can clearly see additional revenues being generated in the future besides what they have today to meet their budgets ....with these surplus revenues, the CBI can then be able hoard more of the surplus oil revenues to put towards its reserves, gold, and other investments bringing Iraq into more light with the international scene...

Iraq And The Dollar: Parallel Market Surges Amid Speculation And Regional Tensions

June 23, 2026Last updated: June 23, 2026   The Independent - The parallel market witnessed a remarkable rise in the dollar exchange rate in recent days, exceeding the 157,000 dinar mark per 100 dollars, amid anticipation and concern in economic and commercial circles regarding the repercussions of regional developments and their impact on local markets.

Financial experts believe that this rise is not related to any change in the official monetary policy or the exchange rate adopted by the state, but rather is due to a set of overlapping factors, most notably speculation, rumors and regional tensions that have led to an increase in demand for foreign currency in the parallel market.

Experts confirm that Iraqi markets are directly affected by political and security developments in the region, especially those related to international trade and energy markets, which is reflected in the behavior of traders, importers, and speculators in the exchange market. 

Financial and banking expert Dr. Mustafa Hantoush said that the current rise in the price of the dollar is mainly due to speculation and rumors circulating about the possibility of amending the official exchange rate in the coming period, despite the absence of any official indicators or decisions in this regard.

He explained that the circulation of this news prompted some traders and speculators to increase their demand for the dollar in anticipation of any future changes, which caused a rise in demand in the parallel market and was directly reflected in prices.

He added that these practices negatively affect the national economy by raising import costs and creating pressure on the prices of basic commodities, as well as increasing anxiety and instability in the markets.

Hantoush pointed out that any decision regarding the exchange rate is subject exclusively to the policies of the Central Bank of Iraq, stressing that no official announcement has been issued regarding amending the adopted rate so far, despite talk of future possibilities without a clear basis.

For his part, economist Haider Al-Sheikh said that part of the increased demand for the dollar is related to the rapid regional developments, especially concerns about shipping traffic in the Strait of Hormuz and its potential impact on global trade and supply chains.

He explained that these developments prompted some traders to increase their demand for the dollar as a precautionary measure, in addition to the impact of rumors about the exchange rate, which contributed to a temporary rise in prices in the parallel market.

The Sheikh confirmed that monetary policy in Iraq has not witnessed any change, and that the official price of the dinar remains fixed, predicting a gradual return to stability as psychological pressures in the market subside.

For his part, economic researcher Ahmed Eid explained that the rise of the dollar is due to internal and external factors at the same time, most notably geopolitical tensions and concerns related to the security of navigation and Iraqi oil flows.

He pointed out that these concerns have prompted traders to increase their demand for foreign currency, coinciding with the continuation of some restrictions on external transfers, which widens the gap between the official and parallel exchange rates.

He also pointed out that Iraq’s inclusion on the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) grey list has increased caution among some traders, which has indirectly affected market activity.

Economic estimates indicate that continued speculation and rumors may keep the market in a state of temporary fluctuation, while the central bank’s ability to control the market remains a crucial factor in stabilizing the exchange rate in the coming period. https://mustaqila.com/العراق-والدولار-ارتفاعات-السوق-الموا/

Shenkali Warns Against Raising The Value Of The Dollar And Harming The Poor And Middle Classes.

Information/Baghdad...  Former MP Majid Shenkali warned against raising the value of the dollar against the dinar and harming the poor and middle classes.

Shankali said via social media, as reported by Al-Maalomah, that “the difference today between the official and parallel price of the dollar is 250 dinars, meaning that every 100 S bill has a difference of 25,000 dinars, and no one is talking about it under the pretext that the newly formed government.”

He added that "this excuse is completely unacceptable, especially since the government's supporters are praising the Prime Minister's economic and financial expertise and skill," noting that "if the government is serious about reducing the price of the dinar to reduce the budget deficit and bear the expenses, it must first work to ensure that the difference between the official and parallel prices is no more than 10-20 dinars only."

He explained that "raising the dollar's price and maintaining a large gap means destroying the poor and middle classes, both in terms of their livelihoods and the economy." (End of 25)

Baghdad - WAA   The Central Bank of Iraq announced on Monday the completion of procedures and requirements for the reintegration of a number of banks restricted from dealing in US dollars in foreign currency transfer operations.

The bank stated in a statement received by the Iraqi News Agency (INA): “Within the framework of the Central Bank of Iraq’s efforts to enhance monetary and financial stability, develop the banking sector, and raise its level of integration into the global financial system, the bank continues to implement its reform program in coordination with relevant international institutions, focusing on several key areas.”

A Source Reveals to *Al-Mustaqila*: The Government Is Moving Toward Removing Three Zeros From The Iraqi Dinar And Issuing A New Currency

June 21, 2026 — Last Updated: June 21, 2026   *Al-Mustaqila* / An exclusive source told *Al-Mustaqila* that the Iraqi government, headed by Ali Al-Zaidi, is moving toward studying and implementing a major economic project involving the removal of three zeros from the Iraqi currency as part of a package of monetary reforms aimed at restructuring the financial system and facilitating everyday transactions.

According to the source, the project also includes a gradual move toward issuing a new Iraqi currency while maintaining the dinar's real value and purchasing power, should the plan be officially implemented by the Iraqi Central Bank.

Reasons behind the move include:

- Continued heavy reliance on oil revenues
- Exchange rate fluctuations against the U.S. dollar
- Inflation in liquidity and expansion of the money supply in circulation
- Weak confidence in the banking system

Experts believe that the "removal of the zeros" project is generally classified as a currency redenomination. This means it does not change the real value of salaries or prices but instead aims to simplify figures and make daily financial transactions easier.

**International Experiences and Local Concerns**

Experiences from other countries indicate that such measures can technically succeed in simplifying the monetary system. However, they require economic stability and strong confidence in the banking sector to ensure that market disruption does not occur.

On the other hand, specialists warn that any poorly planned implementation could lead to:

- Confusion over prices during the transition period
- Public concerns about losing value
- Temporary difficulties in controlling the cash market

**Iraq's Economy Between Reform and Pressure**

This discussion comes at a time when Iraq is trying to balance financial reforms with mounting economic challenges, making the currency issue one of the most sensitive topics in the coming period, especially if the country actually transitions to a new currency.

While supporters view the move as "a necessary modernization," opponents see it as "more cosmetic than a fundamental reform." The final decision remains tied to the readiness of financial institutions and their ability to manage the transition without causing economic shocks.

Will this mark the beginning of a real transformation in the Iraqi dinar, or is it simply another discussion within monetary policy circles? https://mustaqila.com/مصدر-يكشف-لـالمستقلة-الحكومة-تتجه/

A Source Denies Any Change In The Exchange Rate And Confirms A Plan To Control The Parallel Market In Iraq.

June 23, 2026Last updated: June 23, 2026  Al-Mustaqilla - An informed source confirmed to Al-Mustaqilla on Tuesday that what has been circulating in recent days regarding the Iraqi Central Bank's intention to raise or change the exchange rate of the dinar against the dollar is "completely untrue," categorically denying any official intention to amend the rate currently adopted in monetary policy.

The source explained that the official exchange rate will remain fixed without any change in the coming period, stressing that there are no decisions or discussions regarding raising or lowering it, as is being circulated in some media outlets and social media sites.

In contrast, the source indicated that the Central Bank, in coordination with the Iraqi government, is working on a new plan aimed at reducing the gap between the official price and the parallel market price, through regulatory and supervisory measures aimed at enhancing market stability and preventing speculation.

He added that the next phase will witness stricter steps towards unregulated transactions in the exchange market, with the aim of reducing the price difference and gradually restoring balance to the financial market in Iraq.

The source emphasized that “all news circulating about an intention to raise the exchange rate is baseless,” urging reliance on official sources regarding monetary policies and cautioning against being swayed by rumors that undermine market stability and public confidence. https://mustaqila.com/مصدر-ينفي-تغيير-سعر-الصرف-ويؤكد-خطة-للس/

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Stocks Stabilize After Tech Selloff as Dollar Climbs to One-Year High

Global markets steadied after a sharp technology-led selloff, while a stronger U.S. dollar and easing oil prices reflected growing investor caution over artificial intelligence valuations, interest rates, and geopolitical uncertainty.

 Overview

• Global stock markets stabilized after heavy losses in technology shares earlier this week.

• The U.S. dollar reached its strongest level in one year as investors sought safety amid geopolitical and monetary policy uncertainty.

• Markets remain focused on AI valuations, Federal Reserve policy, and U.S.-Iran negotiations, all of which could shape financial markets in the weeks ahead.

Key Developments

1. Technology Stocks Attempt a Rebound

Technology shares recovered modestly after suffering a broad selloff driven by concerns that artificial intelligence-related companies may have become overvalued following months of rapid gains.

Investors are closely watching Micron Technology's earnings, viewing the semiconductor manufacturer as an important indicator of continued demand for AI infrastructure, data centers, and advanced computing.

While long-term optimism surrounding AI remains intact, markets are becoming increasingly selective as investors evaluate whether corporate earnings can justify current valuations.

2. U.S. Dollar Strengthens as Investors Seek Safety

The U.S. dollar climbed to its highest level in a year, supported by expectations that the Federal Reserve may keep interest rates elevated if inflation remains persistent.

Geopolitical uncertainty surrounding the evolving U.S.-Iran peace negotiations also encouraged investors to move toward traditional safe-haven assets, further strengthening the dollar.

The stronger dollar placed additional pressure on other major currencies, particularly the euro and Japanese yen.

3. Falling Oil Prices Ease Inflation Pressures

Oil prices continued to decline as expectations grew that shipping through the Strait of Hormuz would gradually normalize following recent diplomatic developments.

Lower crude prices could reduce inflationary pressures worldwide by lowering transportation and energy costs, potentially easing some pressure on consumers and central banks.

However, markets remain cautious as negotiations between Washington and Tehran continue to evolve and regional tensions have not been fully resolved.

Why It Matters

Global financial markets are currently being influenced by three powerful forces: artificial intelligence investment, central bank policy, and geopolitical developments.

Technology companies continue to drive much of the market's performance, while interest rate expectations and global conflicts are shaping currency markets, commodity prices, and investor confidence.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

Foreign currency holders should continue monitoring U.S. monetary policy, the strength of the U.S. dollar, and geopolitical developments.

A stronger dollar, changing energy prices, and continued progress toward digital financial infrastructure all influence global capital flows, international trade, and long-term monetary policy discussions that remain important to those following future currency realignment developments.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1:  Monetary Policy 

Higher interest rates and a stronger U.S. dollar continue influencing global liquidity, capital flows, and international investment decisions.

• Pillar 2:  Financial Infrastructure

AI investment, digital technologies, and shifting geopolitical alliances are accelerating structural changes across the global financial system that could shape the next generation of finance.

Closing Thought

Markets are increasingly responding not only to economic data, but also to technology innovation, geopolitical negotiations, and central bank policy. The interaction of these forces will likely continue driving volatility while reshaping investment strategies across global markets.

This is not just about stock prices—it reflects the growing connection between technology, monetary policy, and geopolitical developments as the global financial system continues to evolve.

 🌱 A Message to Our Currency Holders🌱

If you’ve been holding foreign currency for many years, you were not foolish.
You were not wrong to believe the global financial system would change.

What failed was not your patience — it was the information you were given.

For years, dates, rumors, and personalities replaced facts, structure, and proof. “This week” predictions created cycles of hope and disappointment that were never based on how currencies actually change.

That is not your failure.

Our mission here is different:  • No dates • No rates • No hype • No gurus

Instead, we focus on:
• Verifiable developments • Institutional evidence
• Global financial structure • Where countries actually sit in the process

Currency value changes only come after sovereignty, trade, banking, settlement systems, and fiscal coordination are in place. History and institutions confirm this sequence.

You will see silence. You will see denials. That is not delay — that is discipline.

Protect your identity. Organize your documents.    Verify everything.
Never hand your discernment to anyone who cannot show proof.

You deserve truth — not timelines.
