COMEX Silver Just Faced Its Lehman Moment—This Is the Endgame | Andy Schectman

Two dollars Investing:  9-14-2025

COMEX just hit its Lehman moment.

74 million ounces of silver were demanded for delivery — the second largest spike ever recorded — and instead of settling in paper, buyers stood for real metal.

This wasn’t supposed to happen. For decades, Wall Street’s paper games kept silver suppressed. But when physical delivery overwhelms the system, confidence dies overnight.

 That’s what we’re seeing now: the paper silver market breaking down in real time.

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economic Updates Sunday Morning 9-14-25

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Out with the Old, In with the New: Global Shifts Point Toward an Asset-Backed Reset

Political upheaval, social unrest, and financial instability are converging to push nations toward gold and commodity-backed systems.

Cracks in the Old Order
Across the globe, nations are experiencing political turbulence and financial strain that reflect a deeper systemic shift. France has faced mass protests, leadership under pressure, and calls for a new constitution as frustration with inequality and EU policies mounts.

Other countries show similar signs:

• Germany – economic slowdown and energy dependency challenges.

• Italy and Spain – political instability and surging nationalist movements.

• United Kingdom – post-Brexit financial strain, leadership shakeups, and inflation battles.

• United States – debt crisis, Federal Reserve scrutiny, and debates over a digital dollar.

The common theme is clear: traditional governance and fiat-based economic systems are under strain, and populations are rejecting “business as usual.”

The People Rise Up
Public frustration is no longer limited to economic complaints — it’s spilling into the streets. In London, a “Unite the Kingdom” rally led by activist Tommy Robinson drew more than 100,000 people, with unofficial estimates placing the crowd in the millions. Protesters framed the march around migration, free speech, and national identity. Signs reading “Freedom of speech is dead. RIP Charlie Kirk” highlighted how the recent assassination of U.S. conservative activist Charlie Kirk has become a rallying cry across borders.

Meanwhile in Spain, the Vuelta cycling race became a stage for anti-Israel protests. Demonstrators waving Palestinian flags interrupted multiple stages, demanding international accountability for Gaza and calling for the expulsion of Israel’s team from the race. These protests, tacitly endorsed by Spain’s government, escalated into a diplomatic standoff with Israel — showing how grassroots uprisings are now capable of shifting state-level policy.

From London’s nationalists to Spain’s pro-Palestinian activists, the message is similar: citizens no longer trust their governments or global institutions to represent them, and are forcing their voices into the spotlight.

The Fiat System at a Breaking Point
Decades of debt-fueled monetary policy and central bank dominance appear to be reaching their limits. Nations burdened with unsustainable debt are edging closer to default. The cracks in the fiat model are accelerating the search for alternatives.

The Push Toward Asset-Backed Finance
BRICS and its expanding membership — including countries like Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and the UAE — are openly advancing gold-backed trade settlement. Commodities, particularly oil and gold, are reemerging as the anchors of global exchange, replacing the “paper promises” of fiat currency.

This transition is not just financial but political. In France, the potential collapse of the Fifth Republic could pave the way for a Sixth Republic shaped by new economic alignments, perhaps closer to BRICS models.

Global Power Realignment
The shift from “old guard” to “new system” is underway:

• IMF, BIS, and G7 dominance is waning.

• Sovereign wealth funds and asset-backed currencies are gaining traction.

• Central banks face pressure to adapt, with gold now recognized as a tier-1 asset under Basel III standards.

Leadership changes are only the surface; the deeper transformation lies in the control of money and credit. If a nation like France reorients its financial system, ripple effects could reshape the EU, NATO, and the global balance of power.

Proof and Reality Check
There is undeniable evidence of instability: widespread protests, resignations, assassinations, and the rise of BRICS’ gold-based trade mechanisms. Citizens are openly challenging their governments, while governments themselves are repositioning financially and diplomatically. Yet, while the pieces of a new financial order are falling into place, there is no definitive proof of a single coordinated system set to roll out immediately. The global shift remains in motion — marked by positioning, negotiations, and speculation.

Why This Matters
From Europe to the U.S. to BRICS, the story is the same: the old fiat model is faltering, and asset-backed systems are emerging as the next chapter in global finance. The uprisings in London and Spain are not isolated events — they are symptoms of a deeper rupture between governments, people, and the financial order underpinning them. The world may soon witness a coordinated reset where sovereignty, real assets, and multipolar structures replace the debt-driven order of the past.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

US Senators Accuse JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo of Threatening US Financial Stability and Risking Another Taxpayer Bailout – Here’s Why

Warren and Sanders warn that megabank stock buybacks and dividend hikes are setting the stage for another financial crisis.

Senators Sound the Alarm
U.S. Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Bernie Sanders (I-VT) are taking aim at the nation’s largest banks, accusing them of placing the “entire economy at risk” through massive stock buyback programs and dividend increases.

The senators argue that JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley are prioritizing wealthy shareholders and executives over financial stability and consumer benefits.

The Numbers Behind the Accusation

• JPMorgan Chase: $50 billion stock buyback, dividend increase of 7.1%

• Bank of America: $40 billion stock buyback, dividend increase of 7.6%

• Wells Fargo: $40 billion stock buyback, dividend increase of 12.5%

• Citigroup: $20 billion stock buyback, dividend increase of 7.1%

• Goldman Sachs: $40 billion stock buyback, dividend increase of 33%

• Morgan Stanley: $20 billion stock buyback, dividend increase of 8.1%

In total, these megabanks are directing roughly $210 billion to shareholder enrichment.

Echoes of 2008
Warren and Sanders stress that the rollback of capital requirements under the Trump administration has left Wall Street dangerously exposed. Reduced buffers increase susceptibility to economic shocks and raise the likelihood of another government bailout.

They warn that undercapitalization of major banks was a root cause of the 2008 financial crisis and the deep recession that followed.

Why This Matters
While Wall Street celebrates higher dividends, critics argue that these practices are draining capital from the system instead of fortifying it. If another crisis emerges, taxpayers could once again be forced to foot the bill for bailouts.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Trump Warns NATO: Russian Oil Buys Are “Shocking,” Threatens Harsh Sanctions

Trump pushes NATO to stop Russian oil imports and proposes steep tariffs on China as geopolitical tensions rise.

Trump Targets NATO’s Russian Oil Purchases
President Trump has criticized NATO allies for continuing to buy Russian oil, calling the purchases “shocking” and a sign of weak commitment to defeating Russia. He warned that he is prepared to impose major sanctions on Moscow — but only if all NATO members act together.

Trump argued that by buying Russian oil, NATO allies weaken their negotiating power and prolong the war in Ukraine.

Proposed Tariffs on China
In addition, Trump has urged NATO to adopt sweeping tariffs of 50–100% on China until the war ends. He says such measures would pressure Beijing to abandon its support for Moscow and accelerate a resolution.

Trump also reiterated that the war “would never have started” under his presidency, placing blame on President Biden and Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy.

Rising Pressure on Putin
In a Fox News interview, Trump warned that his patience with Russian President Vladimir Putin is “running out fast.” He has previously threatened to sanction countries that buy Russian oil, including China and India. While he placed a 25% tariff on Indian goods for continuing to import Russian oil, he has not taken equivalent measures against Beijing.

Escalating Tensions in Europe
Recent Russian drone incursions into Polish airspace — a NATO member — have heightened tensions. The U.S. has reaffirmed its pledge to defend “every inch of NATO territory.” Meanwhile, peace talks remain stalled as Ukrainian President Zelenskyy insists that Russia still seeks to seize all of Ukraine.

Crypto Market Reaction
Despite the geopolitical volatility, crypto markets remain steady.

• Bitcoin has held above $115,000

• Altcoins are trading in green, fueling talk of a potential “Altcoin season”

• Global crypto market cap: $4.19 trillion, up 1.9% in the past 24 hours

Investor commentary highlights that U.S. markets overall are hitting record highs across gold, equities, and money supply (M2), while the national debt climbs and inflation remains at 2.9% — still above the Fed’s target.

Why This Matters
Trump’s proposals merge energy, trade, and geopolitics into a single pressure campaign with global consequences. From oil flows to tariffs to crypto resilience, his words continue to ripple across markets and alliances.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

BRICS Grows As 1,700 Banks Process 175 Trillion Chinese Yuan Payments

China’s CIPS payment system is accelerating global de-dollarization, with record cross-border yuan transactions.

Record Growth in CIPS Payments
BRICS member China’s Cross-Border Interbank Payment System (CIPS) processed more than 175 trillion Chinese yuan ($24 trillion) in payments, according to The Economist. This marks a 43% jump from 2023, as over 1,700 banks worldwide now participate in the yuan-based payment network.

Banks from countries including Turkey, Mauritius, and BRICS member UAE are actively facilitating yuan transactions. CIPS has also expanded into Africa and the Middle East, extending its reach across 33 market sectors — most operated by Chinese institutions.

China’s Push for Yuan Dominance
CIPS serves as a clearing and settlement infrastructure for cross-border yuan transactions, directly challenging the U.S. dollar’s role in global trade. By allowing manufacturers and international businesses to settle in yuan, China is reducing dependence on the greenback while strengthening its financial self-reliance.

The Xi Jinping administration has aggressively promoted the yuan within BRICS and beyond, with the goal of embedding it into global trade networks.

Dollar Distrust Deepens
Emerging economies are increasingly wary of the U.S. dollar, citing Washington’s use of the currency as a geopolitical weapon. Trump-era tariffs and ongoing trade wars have only reinforced this distrust. As a result, countries are accelerating settlement in yuan and other local currencies, moving away from dollar-based transactions.

Why This Matters
The rapid growth of CIPS highlights how BRICS is steadily building an alternative to the dollar-dominated financial system. If yuan settlements continue to surge, the U.S. dollar could face a historic decline, with ripple effects that may reshape global markets and fuel inflationary pressures in the American economy.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

How Do I Make The Most Of This Sudden Windfall?

How Do I Make The Most Of This Sudden Windfall?

I’m 40 and my mom just died — leaving me a $3.25M inheritance

Christy Bieber  Sat, September 13, 2025    Moneywise

According to Northwestern Mutual, $90 trillion will transfer to younger generations in the coming years [1].  Rebecca, 40, says she has inherited $3 million in stocks and $250,000 in cash, and has a $100,000 mortgage and $25,000 in other debt. What should she do with such a large windfall to make sure she’s using it wisely?

Think Before Acting

When you receive a large inheritance, the first thing to consider is the tax implications. Federal estate taxes don't kick in until you inherit at least eight figures (the threshold in 2025 is $13.99 million), so you shouldn't have to worry about that. Some states also impose an inheritance or estate tax (Maryland imposes both).

If you inherit assets you plan to sell, there’s good news. The step-up basis at death resets the cost basis for the inherited assets to the fair market value at the time of death. This usually helps reduce the amount of capital gains taxes you will owe.

Beyond the tax implications, you need to make a smart plan for how to make the money last. An often cited statistic from a 20-year study by The Williams Group of 3,200 families says that 70% of the time family wealth is lost by the second generation, and this number jumps to 90% for the third generation.

If you don't want to become one of the majority who waste the funds, you should avoid jumping into spending the money or upgrading your lifestyle dramatically.

While it is probably a good idea to pay off your mortgage and other debt so you can avoid interest costs, you should refrain from doing things like immediately buying a bigger house or making other large purchases that eat away a big chunk of the money and require you to commit to higher ongoing expenses.

You should also avoid telling anyone other than your immediate family about the inheritance. If word gets out, you may find yourself targeted by people trying to get you to "invest" in their business venture, help them cope with "emergency" spending needs or any other excuse to access your funds.

What Should You Do With The Money?

The first thing you should do is pay off your debt and make sure you’ve built a sizable emergency fund, then invest every dollar, ideally in a mix of simple and safe investments.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Saturday Evening 9-13-25

Government Advisor: Partnerships With International Finance Reflect Confidence In The Iraqi Investment Environment.

Money and Business  The Prime Minister's Advisor for Financial Affairs, Mazhar Mohammed Salih, affirmed on Saturday that the partnerships signed with the International Finance Corporation (IFC) represent a strategic step towards diversifying the Iraqi economy and enhancing international direct investment. He pointed out that these partnerships reflect the international corporation's confidence in the Iraqi investment environment and open new horizons for the development of non-oil sectors.

Salih said: "The conference held today in Baghdad under the title of Partnership Day between the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and the Iraqi government, in the presence of Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, is an important strategic step towards diversifying the Iraqi economy and enhancing international direct investment."

He added that "the International Finance Corporation, one of the arms of the World Bank Group concerned with financing and partnerships with the private sector in various countries around the world, including Iraq, demonstrated through this conference clear confidence in the Iraqi investment environment, which constitutes a positive indicator for international investors."

Iraq Ranks Second Among Arab Countries As The Largest Exporter Of Oil To The United States

Saturday, September 13, 2025, | Economic Number of reads: 301  Baghdad / NINA / The US Energy Information Administration announced, on Saturday, that Iraq's oil exports to the United States amounted to about 8 million barrels during last August.

The Iraqi Economy and the Growing Domestic Public Debt: "Risks and Policies"

Economy News – Baghdad  Dr. Haitham Hamid Mutlaq Al-Mansour   Iraq's domestic public debt balance resumed its rise at the end of June, reaching 87 trillion and 748 billion Iraqi dinars, according to official sources. The most important reasons for this increase include:

1- The increasing need for domestic borrowing to finance the ongoing fiscal deficit, due to the high rentierism of the Iraqi economy, as oil constitutes more than 90% of the general budget revenues, which makes it vulnerable to fluctuations in global oil prices when they decline, and the high rates of government spending, as the government adopts an expansionary fiscal policy to finance operating expenditures, especially salaries and wages, which are often covered at the expense of investment spending.

2- The increase in government spending rates compared to the growth rates of domestic public debt, which increases the financial gap between public debt and its sustainability.

3- Weak financial management, low efficiency in collecting non-oil revenues, and rampant financial and administrative corruption continue to keep the economy in a state of deficit, exacerbating domestic public debt.

Non-oil revenues declined during the first half of this year to 4.951 trillion dinars, compared to 7.118 trillion dinars in the same period last year, a decrease of 2.167 trillion dinars, or 43.6%. This will lead to an increase in the actual deficit in the general budget and aggravation of domestic public debt.

4- The rising levels of domestic public debt also fuel the growth of the annual government financial deficit, a portion of which is allocated to paying debt installments and interest, in addition to renewable government spending items. This burdens the general budget and deepens the debt once again, thus entering the economy into a vicious cycle of persistent debt.

Accordingly, the expected economic risks of the increase in the size of the domestic public debt include:

1- Continued inflationary pressures, driven by increased money supply due to borrowing from the central bank, could lead to higher inflation, which has reached above 5% in some recent years.

2- Hindering economic growth. High debt service (interest) is likely to divert resources from development investments, such as infrastructure, health, and education. This is known as the crowding-out effect, which negatively impacts the private sector. When the government borrows domestically, it competes with the private sector for capital, potentially raising interest rates and limiting private sector activity.

Therefore, it was necessary to build counter-policies that revolve around the following:

1- Building comprehensive economic policies to manage domestic public debt and achieve its sustainability by linking it to investment funds.

2- In light of the rentier economy, the efficiency of financial revenue management must be increased and the tax system must be reformed by improving the efficiency of tax and fee collection, which currently does not exceed 10% of total revenue.

3- Diversifying the sources of funding for the general budget through development in other economic sectors, such as agriculture, industry, and tourism, to increase non-oil revenues.

4- Enhancing transparency, combating corruption, and implementing strict measures to limit corruption in the management of public funds.

5- Issuing government bonds of various denominations to attract local and foreign savings in an organized manner, instead of direct borrowing from the Central Bank.

In short, Iraq's rising domestic public debt is a wake-up call for the national economy to address this through structural reforms in the general budget and expansionary fiscal policy, diversification of revenue sources, and rationalization of spending in favor of increased investment. Without these reforms, the domestic public debt may continue to grow, threatening Iraq's long-term economic stability and financial security.  https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=59964

Signing A Number Of Investment And Development Contracts With IFC

Saturday, September 13, 2025, | Economics   Number of reads: 379  Baghdad / NINA / The celebration of the Partnership Day between the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and Iraq witnessed the signing of a number of investment and development contracts with the public and private sectors.

In a speech during the ceremony, Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani pointed out the importance of the partnership with the International Finance Corporation, given the distinguished capabilities of the private sector, which has proven its effective presence in implementing reconstruction and development projects, and its ability to withstand various forms of bureaucracy, corruption and security conditions.

He explained: “Attracting foreign capital has contributed to supporting the stability of the Iraqi economy and encouraged international financial institutions, including German, Italian, French, British and Chinese institutions, to contribute to financing a significant number of development projects, in addition to providing legal and administrative frameworks and removing routine obstacles, which creates more job opportunities.

During the ceremony, the following contracts were signed in partnership and financing with the IFC:

Gold Prices Rise To Record Levels

Economy | 09:21 - 09/13/2025  Mawazine News - Follow-up:  Gold prices achieved gains for the fourth week, supported by expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut and amid increasing inflows into gold-backed exchange-traded funds.

The price of gold surpassed $3,650 per ounce, an increase of nearly 2%, this week, after setting a record high on Tuesday. Silver prices, which move in parallel with the yellow metal, also jumped above $42 per ounce, its highest level since 2011.

Gold prices rose 0.6% to $3,654.38 per ounce at settlement on Friday evening in Asian markets. The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index, on the other hand, recorded a slight increase but is heading for a weekly loss of 0.3%. Palladium was also heading for weekly gains of nearly 8%, while platinum rose near $1,400 per ounce.

Data showed that US consumer prices rose as expected in August, giving Federal Reserve policymakers room to cut borrowing costs after a string of weak labor market data.

Traders expected at least a quarter-point cut at the Fed's meeting next week, with two additional cuts possible by the end of the year. Meanwhile, the US dollar and 10-year Treasury yields fell this week. The precious metal typically benefits from lower borrowing costs and yields and a weaker US currency.
Gold has jumped 39% since the beginning of the year, making it one of the best-performing commodities, outperforming other market indices such as the S&P 500. https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=266689

Tishwash:  More than 15 trillion dinars are kept in cash in the homes of citizens

The governor of the Central Bank of Iraq says 80 percent of Iraq's money is in households and stresses that they are trying to increase citizens' confidence in banks.

Central Bank Governor Ali Alaq said the 2025 banking reform plan is a strategic step to strengthen confidence in the Iraqi banking system and solve problems.

He said 80 percent of Iraqi money is outside the banks and in the homes, due to lack of confidence in the banks.

He added that the banking reform plan includes updating the banking system, in line with international standards and attracting global companies.

Meanwhile, Mustafa Garawi, a member of the Finance Committee of the Iraqi Parliament, warned that this phenomenon has led to a decline in market movement and economic activity.

He revealed that; According to reports, the money held in households is more than 100 trillion dinars.

Earlier, economic researcher Haider Sheikh revealed; The Central Bank of Iraq is really suffering from a shortage of cash and flows, due to the lack of confidence in the banking system and the least trust in public and private banks, which has led many citizens to keep their money in Iraqi dinars. 

Revealed; More than 15 trillion Iraqi dinars are kept in cash in the homes of citizens and salaried employees, so the central bank and the Iraqi government should solve this problem and inflation, through the formulation of economic and financial policy and banking facilities for citizens and restore confidence.  link

Tishwash:  Banking reform enters a decisive phase: The Central Bank and banks are in a race against time - Urgent

To avoid penalties 

The Iraqi banking sector is going through a critical phase, where economic and financial considerations intersect with the demands of structural reform that have been postponed for years.

 After decades of challenges, and amid international and local pressure to improve the efficiency of the financial system, the reform paper launched by the Central Bank in coordination with an international consulting firm emerged as an attempt to rebuild trust and establish more robust rules for banking operations.

 The importance of this issue goes beyond the financial dimension; it extends to the broader institutional context related to the state's ability to formulate economic stability tools and meet transparency requirements, which in turn are linked to the confidence of investors and international donors.

In this context, economic expert Ahmed Abdul Rabbo, speaking to Baghdad Today, predicted that "the end of September will be the deadline for private banks to sign the final amendments to the reform paper submitted by the Central Bank of Iraq in coordination with Oliver and Iman." This timing reflects the Central Bank's awareness of the country's need to end the period of hesitation and embark on a clearly defined reform path.

According to institutional estimates, setting a timetable for signing aims to overcome the procrastination that accompanied the first rounds of dialogue with private banks and transform reform from a theoretical idea into a practical commitment.

Adjustments in response to market pressures

Recent developments indicate that the reform was not imposed unilaterally, but rather came after a series of technical discussions with banks. Abdul Rabbo explained that "the Central Bank has made extensive amendments to the banking reform paper over the past weeks in response to the comments submitted by the banks, noting that it was keen to open an extensive dialogue with Iraqi banks to clarify the technical aspects of the reform paper."

This clarification reveals a collaborative process that balances reform requirements with market pressures. According to economic estimates, the central bank's understanding of banks' comments reflects its awareness that implementing strict measures without consensus could hinder the banking system's ability to keep pace with changes. At the same time, this dialogue seeks to establish the principle of transparency and a commitment to gradualism as a means of ensuring the effectiveness of reform, consistent with similar international experiences in restructuring banking sectors.

Gradual reform with privacy in mind

The discussion is not limited to the form of reform, but also includes its pace. Abdul Rabbo pointed out "the importance of implementing reform mechanisms gradually, taking into account the specificities of Iraq's economic reality." He emphasized the need to adhere to reform in principle, while formulating standards and procedures in a way that enhances confidence in the banking sector and contributes to its development.

According to economic readings, this position reflects the traditional tension between the imperative of rapid openness to international standards and the demands of a local reality characterized by fragility and instability. Gradualism, financial experts believe, reduces the shocks to small and medium-sized banks and gives the sector sufficient time to adapt to the new regulatory environment. This makes reform not only a tool for course correction, but also a means of rebuilding the contract between the state and the private financial sector on more sustainable foundations.

The essence and dimensions of the amendments

The recent amendments raise fundamental questions about the nature of the role private banks will play. Abd Rabbuh explained that the amendments "include extending the capital requirement for banks, reconsidering the ownership structure, and abolishing the foreign partner requirement, thus providing banks with greater flexibility in implementing reforms and strengthening their role in supporting the national economy."

This change has multiple institutional dimensions. Extending the capital requirement reduces immediate financial pressure on banks, while reconsidering the ownership structure opens the door to restructuring the relationship between local shareholders and regulatory authorities.

The abolition of the foreign partner requirement reflects a shift toward enhanced independence, but it also raises questions about the ability of local banks to bridge the gap in expertise and technology typically provided by an international partner. According to economic estimates, these amendments represent an attempt to balance strengthening financial sovereignty with creating practical flexibility.

Timing and objectives of reform

Abdul Rabbuh believes that "banking reform comes at a crucial time, as Iraq seeks to enhance the banking sector's capacity to finance development and investment projects and reduce financial risks by adopting more flexible and transparent standards. The success of the reform paper represents a fundamental step toward achieving comprehensive financial stability and increasing confidence among local and international investors."

This link between reform and investment reflects that the goal is not limited to improving banking efficiency, but extends to building an environment that is attractive to capital. According to research estimates, the signals of confidence that banking reform can generate will be crucial in repositioning Iraq on the international financial map. Internal financial stability is also a prerequisite for confronting the recurring economic crises that the country has experienced over the past two decades. 

Reform as a Barrier to Sanctions and Corruption

Banking reform was not only a domestic choice; it also came in response to external pressures linked to the risks of international sanctions. The delay in adopting the required standards and the banks' slowness in complying with regulatory controls opened the door for international oversight bodies to question Iraq's ability to manage its financial sector transparently. According to financial estimates, this situation increased the likelihood of some banks being placed on watch lists or sanctions, negatively impacting the smooth flow of financial transactions and external transfers.

Economists point out that part of this crisis was linked not only to technical shortcomings, but also to the dominance of influential groups within the banking sector, who took advantage of weak oversight and widespread corruption to obstruct any serious reform attempt.

This dominance eroded international institutions' confidence in Iraq's ability to implement standards, making any delay in reform a direct threat to its economic interests. Therefore, the current reform paper should be read not only as a regulatory framework, but also as a fundamental line of defense to avoid potential sanctions and rebuild confidence in a sector that has for years been synonymous with fragility and political tensions.

Upcoming challenges and implementation prospects

Abdul Rabbo concluded by saying, "The coming weeks will witness ongoing negotiations and coordination between the Central Bank and private banks to ensure all parties agree on implementing reforms smoothly and effectively. These measures represent an opportunity to restructure the banking sector and strengthen its role in the national economy after years of financial challenges and economic fluctuations."

This statement outlines the next phase, where the debate is no longer about the feasibility of reform, but rather about the mechanisms for implementation and consensus.

According to institutional estimates, the success of these negotiations will depend on the Central Bank's ability to strike a balance between the requirements of financial discipline and the flexibility demanded by banks. The gradual conclusion indicates that what has changed is Iraq's entry into a mandatory phase of reform after a long debate.

What has not changed is the difficulty of building full consensus in a sector suffering from a long legacy of division and volatility. The expected impact is a gradual restructuring of the banking system, opening the door to enhanced confidence and stability, provided that pledges are transformed into measurable and enforceable obligations.  link

We’re Headed to Monetary Panic

We’re Headed to Monetary Panic

Liberty and Finance:  9-12-2025

In an era defined by digital transactions and complex financial instruments, it’s easy to lose sight of what truly constitutes “money.”

A recent compelling discussion with Phil Low on Liberty and Finance cuts through the noise, offering a stark yet insightful perspective on fundamental economic concepts, the critical role of precious metals, and the inevitable future of finance.

Low’s central premise challenges our modern assumptions: the true nature of money isn’t determined by technology, but by trust. While our digital world thrives on speed and convenience, Low argues that technology merely streamlines the transfer of credit.

And credit, fundamentally, is a promise rooted in trust. When that trust erodes, so does the credit system.

This erosion of trust isn’t a hypothetical. Low points to a recurring historical pattern: dishonest credit systems are inherently unstable and destined to collapse.

 When this happens, a “monetary panic” ensues. People, sensing the instability of their digital or paper promises, rush to convert their credit into physical, tangible money – historically, gold and silver. It’s a flight to safety, where only unencumbered, physical assets are truly trusted.

But here’s where Low offers a refreshing counter-narrative to common doomsday predictions. He asserts that the collapse of a credit system does not equate to societal collapse. Instead, it leads to a restructuring.

 In this new landscape, individuals who hold physical money – the “stackers” of gold and silver – become integral “nodes of civilization.” They possess true liquidity, enabling the revival of honest trade based on real, physical money. Low even illustrates how essential services, like power and coal supply, would organically resume through informal credit, naturally backed by physical gold. It’s a vision of resilience, not ruin.

Low also delves into the foundational economic philosophies shaping our world. He sharply dismisses traditional Keynesian macroeconomics as “junk science,” arguing it promotes heavy-handed government intervention and artificial market manipulation.

In stark contrast, he champions the Austrian School of Economics, which prioritizes free markets, individual liberty, and a positivist approach. This means observing and respecting natural market processes without interference, rather than attempting to prescribe what “should” be done (normative economics). For Low, the market will always find its equilibrium if left alone.

Perhaps the most chilling warning from Phil Low is his discussion of “The Great Taking.” This refers to a potential legal and financial event where modern financial instruments—our brokerage accounts, 401ks, and other digital assets—could be subject to confiscation or centralized control.

It’s a stark reminder of the tenuous nature of wealth held solely in digital or paper form within the existing financial architecture.

So, what’s an individual to do? Low’s advice is clear and unequivocal: prioritize physical metal ownership. Holding tangible gold and silver is paramount. Only after securing physical holdings should one consider investing in precious metals mining mutual funds, and crucially, outside of typical brokerage systems, potentially as a way to diversify a portion of one’s wealth.

Phil Low’s insights offer a powerful lens through which to view our financial future. His message isn’t one of despair, but of preparedness and understanding the fundamental truths about money and trust. As the global financial landscape continues to evolve, or perhaps, unwind, understanding these dynamics becomes not just prudent, but essential for safeguarding your financial well-being.

It’s Not an Everything Bubble, it’s a Dollar Collapse

It’s Not an Everything Bubble, it’s a Dollar Collapse

Heresy Financial:  9-12-2025

Feeling like your wallet just isn’t stretching as far as it used to? Look around: from the glittering price of gold and the soaring heights of Bitcoin, to the seemingly unstoppable ascent of stocks, real estate, and yes, even your weekly grocery bill – everything seems to be at or near all-time highs.

 The narrative of an “everything bubble” is pervasive, leaving many to wonder when, not if, the whole system will come crashing down.

But what if we’ve been looking at it all wrong? What if it’s not actually an “everything bubble” at all?

A recent video from Heresy Financial offers a compelling, almost unsettling, alternative perspective: the widespread surge in prices isn’t primarily due to individual assets being overvalued, but rather a reflection of the declining purchasing power of the U.S. dollar itself.

Imagine the dollar as the universal measuring stick for value. If that stick itself is getting shorter, everything you measure with it will appear longer or larger in dollar terms. That’s the core argument.

When inflation or price increases seem to be universal, comparing assets to one another becomes misleading. The critical question shifts from “Is this asset overvalued?” to “Compared to what?”

You might point to the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), which measures the dollar’s strength against a basket of other major currencies, and note its relative stability.

 Heresy Financial explains that this stability is deceptive. It merely indicates that other fiat currencies are also losing value at similar rates globally. The DXY masks the pervasive, real inflation occurring in dollar terms.

This phenomenon isn’t new. Economist Ludwig von Mises described something eerily similar: the “crackup boom.” This occurs when people expect continuous money supply growth and rising prices. What happens then? They rush to convert their increasingly devaluing cash into real goods and assets to preserve their purchasing power.

This perfectly explains why we’re seeing both investment assets like stocks and cryptocurrencies and essential living costs like rent, food, utilities, education, and healthcare all skyrocketing simultaneously. It’s not a coincidence; it’s a behavioral response to a weakening currency.

So, how do we truly assess value if our primary currency is an unreliable ruler? The video suggests looking at a more stable, historical benchmark: gold. Unlike the dollar, gold has maintained a relatively stable purchasing power over centuries.

This perspective challenges the conventional wisdom and suggests that perhaps the issue isn’t that everything is too expensive, but that our dollars are simply buying less.

What fuels this continuous decline in the dollar’s value? Heresy Financial points directly to the U.S. money supply (M2). Following an explosive increase during the 2020-2021 period, the money supply has now reached new all-time highs and is growing at a stable but elevated rate. Lower interest rates further encourage borrowing and spending, which in turn expands the money supply and drives inflation.

Given these dynamics, a sudden, dramatic collapse of the dollar or a bursting of a universal bubble in isolation is unlikely without extreme economic upheaval. Instead, what we are witnessing is a consistent, persistent erosion of the dollar’s purchasing power – a quiet but profound transformation of our economic landscape.

The conclusion is clear: the real issue isn’t that everything is individually overvalued, but that the value of our money is steadily diminishing. In such an environment, the best defense is diversification across multiple asset classes. Holding all your wealth purely in cash becomes a losing proposition over time.

Understanding this fundamental shift in how we perceive value is crucial for navigating today’s complex economy.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Saturday Afternoon 9-13-25

Congressional Resolution Ushers In A New Era And Prevents Any Military Intervention In Iraq.

September 12, 2025  Baghdad - Qusay Munther  The US Congress' decision to revoke the 1991 and 2002 war authorizations for Iraq was widely welcomed in Baghdad as a step that reinforces the principle of sovereignty and heralds a new phase in Iraqi-American relations based on mutual respect and shared interests.

“The decision to revoke the authorization for war on Iraq is that the US Congress voted to repeal the old laws that had granted US Presidents George H.W. Bush in 1991 and George W. Bush in 2002 broad powers to wage war on Iraq without having to return to Congress every time,” legal expert Ali Al-Tamimi said in a statement yesterday.

He stressed that “the authorizations were of two basic types: the first was the 1991 authorization to launch the Gulf War to liberate Kuwait, and the second was the 2002 authorization to wage war on Iraq and topple the regime.”

He pointed out that “the decision to revoke came because Iraq was no longer under the rule of the former regime, and there were no longer legal justifications for the authorization to remain, and in order to prevent any future US president from exploiting this law to launch military operations in Iraq or the region without the approval of Congress.

” He explained that “this is also a symbolic step to improve relations with Iraq and to show that the United States is no longer at war with it.”

He went on to say that “the decision means revoking the old powers of the US president to use military force against Iraq and maintaining any operations.” Current agreements, such as military cooperation against ISIS, are under new agreements or with different approvals, and not based on the old laws of war.

The Foreign Ministry previously emphasized that the cancellation of the war authorizations represents a step towards strengthening the partnership with Washington. In a statement yesterday, it said, "Baghdad welcomes the decision, which represents a step towards strengthening the partnership and establishing the principle of respect for sovereignty.

It also reflects the development of relations with the United States." The Iraqi Embassy in Washington confirmed in a statement yesterday, “We welcome the US House of Representatives’ vote to repeal the 1991 and 2002 war authorizations.”

The statement added, “This step represents a reinforcement of the principle of sovereignty and opens a new page in the path of Iraqi-American relations based on mutual respect and common interests. We look forward to its approval soon by the Senate.

” It stressed that “Iraq views with appreciation this historic step that contributes to strengthening our country’s image as a responsible partner state.” It reiterated “the commitment to continue working with the United States to support regional stability and international cooperation, and Iraq looks forward to final approval in the Senate.”

The statement noted that “this decision is an important milestone in the development of our relations with our friends in the United States of America, and a clear message to international public opinion that Iraq is today a partner in peace and an effective voice in issues of development and shared prosperity.”

It expressed “Iraq’s hope that the Senate will translate this message into a tangible reality by approving it.”For his part, Hussein Al-Ameri, a member of the Parliamentary Security and Defense Committee, said in a statement yesterday that “the recent US Senate vote to end the authorization for the war on Iraq that was granted to the US President is a good initiative.”

He added that “Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani’s approach is different from others in dealing with foreign relations, especially with the United States of America, as Al-Sudani’s policy is characterized by transparency, and through this US legislative step, a new page can be opened with the international coalition forces to train Iraqi forces and also to arm the army.”

He stressed that “this step will lead to security and stability for Iraq in light of the war that has no known end between Russia and Ukraine, especially since stability in our region serves all parties and serves Iraq directly.

” He pointed out that “negotiation and transparency in dealing with the American side leads to stability in the region, and we in Iraq hope that there will be no disagreements or differences between neighboring countries because this affects the stability of the political, economic and security situations in the country.” LINK

Iraq intends to build an oil pipeline from Basra to the Sultanate of Oman

economy | 12/09/2025  Mawazine News - Baghdad – The State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO) confirmed on Friday that the signing of memoranda of understanding with the Sultanate of Oman stems from its strategic importance in marketing Iraqi oil, while indicating that there is discussion regarding the construction of a complete pipeline from Basra to Oman.

According to the official agency, the company's general manager, Ali Nizar Al-Shatri, said, "The signing of memoranda with the Sultanate of Oman stems from its strategic location for Iraqi crude oil and petroleum products. Oman has an outlet on the Arabian Sea and another on the Arabian Gulf at its beginning, before the Strait of Hormuz.

The result is that its presence will be closer to our crude oil customers, as most of our exports head to Asia. Therefore, Asian customers will be able to load crude oil from those locations instead of taking the long route."

He added, "There are also technical issues. The more open the waters are, the less the impact of bad weather. Meanwhile, our ports in Basra suffer from bad weather, which forces us to halt exports. Therefore, going to Oman means going to an open region, and exports from it are more stable and committed to our customers, while reducing the chances of disruption."

He pointed out that "discussions are open regarding the construction of a complete pipeline from Basra to Amman, which would achieve multiple outlets and increase export capacity, and would give Iraq the potential referred to by the Prime Minister regarding increasing quotas and production ceilings. This can only be achieved with the presence of local export and consumption capacity.

This was noted in the Prime Minister's speech regarding increasing investments in the field of refining, which is important, while export capacity depends on available export outlets."

He continued, "Oman will play a major role in this field if the pipeline and tanks, upon which the memoranda of understanding were signed, are completed, as well as the commercial process, which is not without marketing aspects.

The result is that when oil is stored in Amman, there is a cost that was incurred, and this cost must be recovered. Iraq needs additional profits to recover the costs, and this can only be achieved through commercial integration."

Al-Shatri explained: "This is why another memorandum of understanding was signed for trade integration between Iraq and the Sultanate of Oman, between the State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO) and OQ Trading Company, an Omani government company that has proven itself globally and internationally.

We are currently in the process of discussing the details of the contracts, because the memoranda of understanding set the general roadmap, but we need the details of the contracts to complete them."  https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=266633

Amid Fluctuating Global Oil Prices, Basra Crude Exceeds $65.

Economy | 12/09/2025  Mawazine News - Baghdad -  Iraqi oil prices recorded a slight increase during daily trading on Friday in the global market.
According to data, Basra Medium crude rose to $65.50 per barrel, while Basra Heavy crude recorded $68.60 per barrel, with a change rate of +0.46 for both.
Regarding global oil prices, British Brent crude recorded $65.90 per barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate crude recorded $65.93 per barrel, with a change rate of -0.47 and -0.44, respectively. https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=266629

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economic Updates Saturday Afternoon 9-13-25

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

China Invests $10B in South Africa, Launching BRICS “Silicon Valley”

Beijing’s investment aims to transform South Africa into a continental hub for technology, trade, and digital growth.

Infrastructure Investment Transforms South Africa
China has committed $10 billion to South Africa’s economy, with a focus on ports, trade, and innovation. The initiative represents one of BRICS’ most ambitious projects to date—building Africa’s largest “Silicon Valley.”

Advanced port facilities and logistics infrastructure will anchor the investment.

• Thousands of jobs are expected to be created.

• New BRICS trade corridors will be established, linking Africa more closely to global markets.

Chinese state-owned enterprises will lead construction of the port and logistics facilities, positioning South Africa as a future gateway for BRICS trade expansion.

BRICS Silicon Valley Takes Shape
The planned BRICS “Silicon Valley” will serve as Africa’s central technology hub. The project includes research centers, startup incubators, and innovation labs aimed at fostering entrepreneurship and attracting international tech companies.

Chinese firms are preparing to open R&D centers in South Africa, with workforce training and technology transfer programs built into the investment package. The initiative is designed to:

• Support young African entrepreneurs.

• Provide access to advanced technology.

• Connect African startups with international markets.

Regional Trade Integration Accelerates
China’s South Africa investment is part of a broader BRICS trade strategy. Recent projects include:

• A $50 billion railway investment in Brazil linking the Pacific and Atlantic.

• Infrastructure upgrades to reduce logistics costs across BRICS trade routes.

• Sustainability initiatives that cut shipping times and lower emissions.

By enhancing port capacity in South Africa and rail connectivity in Brazil, China is creating integrated trade corridors that reinforce BRICS economic ties. Analysts estimate the South African initiative alone could boost national GDP by 2.3% during implementation.

Local Employment and Community Benefits
China has pledged that 70% of operational jobs in the BRICS Silicon Valley project will go to local hires. The development also includes skills training and workforce development, ensuring that South African communities benefit directly from the influx of capital and technology.

Why This Matters
The $10 billion BRICS Silicon Valley investment reflects a long-term strategic effort by China to expand influence in Africa while deepening economic integration within BRICS. For South Africa, it promises to accelerate digital growth, expand trade opportunities, and cement its role as a gateway for global innovation.

Latest RV Updates, September 12th, 2025: Jon Dowling

Latest RV Updates, September 12th, 2025

Jon Dowling:   9-12-2025

In a world accelerating at breakneck speed, staying informed isn’t just wise – it’s essential. This week, Jon Dowling’s RV Report, dated Friday, September 12th, 2025, dropped a comprehensive update, dissecting the intricate web of geopolitical tensions, financial shifts, and market movements that are shaping our collective future.

Before we dive into the fascinating details, a vital reminder from Jon himself: this report is for informational purposes only and not financial advice. Your discernment is your most valuable asset in navigating these complex waters.

One of the most intriguing developments comes from Iraq, where efforts to digitalize its Dinar currency are intensifying. This move is a strategic precursor to the highly anticipated ISO 20022 global announcement, slated for November 22nd, 2025. The world watches as this ancient nation embraces a new financial era.

But as financial systems evolve, geopolitical tensions simmer.

The report highlights escalating concerns in the Middle East, with Israel reportedly preparing for a potential coordinated strike on Iran’s underground nuclear facilities. References to former President Trump’s actions earlier this summer add another layer of complexity to an already volatile region. The implications of such a conflict would undoubtedly ripple across the globe.

Shifting gears to the economic landscape, all eyes are on the Federal Reserve. Anticipation builds for a probable interest rate cut, expected to be between a quarter and half a basis point. However, bond yields and the S&P 500 are flashing signals of potential instability.

The S&P is edging towards the critical 7,000 mark, which some experts foresee as a precursor to a significant market bust. Prudence and preparedness are key.

For those with an eye on the digital frontier, cryptocurrency continues its fascinating trajectory. Fidelity’s optimistic forecast points to a robust Bitcoin bull run following the Fed’s rate decision, potentially stretching into early 2026.

 Moreover, the audacious long-term projection of Bitcoin reaching $1 billion by 2035 is noted, a figure that sparks both incredulity and excitement. Jon wisely cautions: smart investors know when to take profits.

Meanwhile, traditional safe havens are shining. Silver is reaching new highs, a testament to strong demand and its impressive resilience against short-selling pressures. Gold continues its steady upward ascent, reinforcing its role as a reliable store of value. Oil prices saw a slight decrease, and while the U.S. dollar index is moving favorably, Jon suggests more decline is needed for broader market equilibrium.

Jon Dowling closes his report with a powerful message of resilience and optimism. In times of rapid change and uncertainty, his encouragement to stay positive, focused, and discerning resonates deeply. Drawing from personal experiences and emphasizing the collective strength needed, he reminds us that these are indeed challenging times, but by staying informed and applying wisdom, we can navigate them effectively.

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Sat. 13 September 2025

Compiled Sat. 13 September 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Summary:

The “Restored Republic via a GCR” narrative continues to unfold with breathtaking speed, bringing us closer to a world defined by financial freedom and sovereign prosperity.

The air is thick with anticipation, and the long-awaited Global Currency Reset (GCR) and the launch of NESARA/GESARA are now visibly in motion.

On January 1, 2026, the fiat Federal US Dollar will (allegedly) officially be obsolete, replaced by the gold/asset-backed US Treasury Note.

The long wait, the unwavering belief, the ridicule endured – it’s all leading to this moment. September 8, 2025, was not just a date; it was the day the balance of power began to shift back to the people. And as we stand on September 13, 2025, the promise of a truly Restored Republic is no longer a whisper, but a resounding reality.

Stay informed, stay vigilant, and prepare for a future unlike anything we’ve ever known.

Thurs. 11 Sept. 2025 Bruce The Big Call:

We have four confirmations that on Sat. 6 Sept. 2025 the new Dinar Rate (between $3.91 to mid $4.00) made it into the printed version of the Iraqi Gazette, making RV of the Dinar official.

The ZIM, Rupiah, and all other currencies have also revalued.

We are supposed to have the Dinar on the Forex front screens over the weekend.

A source said that Tier4b (us, the Internet Group) could possibly get notified over weekend to set exchange/redemption appointments.

Another source said we would notified and start our exchange appointments early next week, like on Mon. 15 Sept.

Mon. 15 Sept. is when new UN Operational rates are posted and go into effect.

The EBS announcements could last up to five days.

Fri. 12 Sept. 2025 TNT:

Tony says the next basket will be ready by January. And there will be a third basket.

IMF says everyone is expecting to see this in the morning. He should get a call in the morning. Will be public Monday or Tuesday. They want to get us in starting tomorrow.

Iraq announced in the mosques that the new denoms will be coming out tomorrow and everyone will see Iraq as the strongest country in the region. The people laughed! They just don’t believe any more. But they were told this today.

Tony’s Iraq contractor confirmed the message in the mosque but says people don’t trust it.

None of the banks have told Tony they are scheduled to work this weekend. But that could be done in the morning. Tony has contacted high-level people for more information.

The (international) rate has come out at $5.96 for the IQD. Ray says the rate for Venezuela is still $.30 as far as he knows.

Frank26   [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report]   FIREFLY:  This is on TV, the House of US Representatives just voted overwhelmingly to repeal the authorizations for the use of military force related to Iraq…The House passed the bill…with unusual support…17 Democrats joined the Republican majority…  FRANK:  That is very good to hear…I want to point out something…Democrats do not side with Republicans here in America…IMO these 17 Democrats probably have dinars.

Militia Man   If you were to do a re-denomination, you’re going to need a revaluation first…  I believe Iraq is going to do a revelation, dropping the three zeros and then they’re going to re-denominate [with] lower denominations.  And they’re going to apply a real effective exchange rate to that.

Frank26   [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report]   FRANK:
Every day they tell them something about the monetary reform, about their banking system, about their currency, about their exchange rate, their cards, their accounts.  Every day.  Today they add on to it saying… FIREFLY:  They announce we can use the Iraqi dinar currency right now for P2P transactions. Something must have happened that we don’t understand… This is from the Middle East and all the way up to North Africa.  This is also used for PayPal, Venmo, Cash App etc.  Our currency can leave our borders very freely.  There are no restrictions…Our currency is about to add value because people will be using our currency.  FRANK:  Yeah!

“Gold Price Will Be $5-10,000 Before Most React To US Debt” | Mike Maloney & Alan Hibbard

9-12-2025

In this episode of the Gold Silver Show, Mike Maloney and Alan Hibbard take us on a jaw-dropping journey through the U.S. national debt—currently north of $37 trillion and climbing by the second.

Brace yourself for stats that defy comprehension:

• You’d need nearly two years of work—without spending a dime—to clear your share of the debt.

 • Back in 1835, your share was less than a penny.

• Add unfunded liabilities, and that “share” could swell to a million dollars—per person.

• The only plausible “solution”? Inflate your way out of it. Gold and silver aren’t a “nice choice”—they’re sanity insurance.

If the soaring national debt keeps you up at night, this episode isn’t optional—it’s essential. Tune in, rethink everything, and ask yourself: “Am I going to wait—and pay more later—or hedge now?”
