Good Evening Dinar Recaps,
Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) –
"The Iraqi Prime Minister, Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani, met on Thursday with Kristalina Georgieva, Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), who welcomed Baghdad’s accession to a non-financing program to support economic reform in Iraq."
The IMF is expected to move forward with a non-financing program in Iraq beginning next month.
An unfunded debt is a short-term Financial obligation that comes due within a year or less.
It is a short-term contract whereby two entities agree on a non-performance-based payment, and the monies received are on a limited basis.
In other words, Iraq is planning on using a limited support system from the IMF to push their Economic Reforms out in February of 2024.

MZ: That’s a good question. My contractors in Iraq say there is nothing to get done…and soon will be springing the timing on us.
Member: Mark, are you holding back something?
MZ: Yes I am…waiting to see if it comes to fruition. Specifically on historic bonds.
Member: I read Iraq is planning on using a limited support system from the IMF to push their Economic Reforms out in February of 2024.
MZ: “Iraq and the IMF are discussing cooperation and start meetings soon to support a reform program” They would not be having these meetings on Iraq on the world stage unless they were ascending to the WTO and about to hae a valuation change. And that is certainly what we are hearing from contractors and government officials inside Iraq. We just don’t know the exact time…but know they are prepared.
MZ: And they told us via an article we shared this morning that they are getting ready to peg their currency to a basket of currencies from the region to increase the value of the dinar to compete with the US dollar.
Member: I read Iraq named a Speaker today :) Now out with our troops :)
MZ: “ Iraq Prime Ministers says US troops in Iraq is no longer needed” The US does not want to lose their presence there and base of operations. But, they are going to lose it.
MZ: Remember what Trump had told them. “We will leave when we get paid”(repaid for the war) and the push is on for us to leave.
Member: The US needs to leave, they are slowing us down.
MZ: “Sudani: We are facing a new Iraq economically” These are comments made today.
Member: Where can I find Dr. Shabibi talking about the RV?
MZ: Here you go…. Dr Shabibi answering questions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ol8wve53-ME
MZ: That video is from April 2011. This plan has been in place for quite some years.
Member: And Jamie diamond said he's opening 3 Chase banks in Iraq
Member: I believe Iraq will rival Dubai with wealth and a tourist destination
MZ: “Fed rate cuts could push gold prices up 20% this year, but silver will jump 48%-AuAg fund” These numbers are telling us the world is about to enter a commodities super cycle. Exacctly what we are expecting during a revaluation.
Member: Our bank had some of the lanes in the drive thru closed and it said interactive ATM’s coming soon

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,
After all the announcements and news of today, Goldilocks writes the following:
Most people on this venture do not realize what's really going on at this point. Did you know you are sitting on a gold mine? Every currency that you hold from around the world is about to be turned into gold and holds a value at a fixed rate.
Watch what happens this month as certain transitional events will begin the process of turning everything that has an asset value to one that is based on its worth in gold.
* January 10th spot Bitcoin ETF
* January 16th Basel 3 final rule implementation
* Protocol 20 begins the process of tokenized assets joining networks from around the world in three phases
Literally, everything is about to be worth its weight in gold.

The Treasury Bond Yield Curve is an important indicator for long-term trend signals on the markets.
Long-term Bond Yields have forced investors to look towards short-term Treasury Bonds for short-term gains since 2022 i.e. 2-year yields.
Short-term Treasury Bonds are considered safe until recently. Currently, short-term bonds are looking as though they are saturated.
This signal shows a shift in the macro environment. It tells us there is a formulation of new trends for long-term investments in gold and other commodities over the dollar and the bonds that support it.
These new market trends are shifting the dominance of the dollar in trade towards other currencies backed by real values such as gold. Seeking Alpha Link

"The International Swaps and Derivatives Association is a trade organization of participants in the market for over-the-counter derivatives."
The ISDA has responded to the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) on the US Basel III ‘endgame.’
They submitted a notice of proposal on the rule-making process a warning. Their concern is that Capital requirements between the Banking system and the Markets as well as US merchants are too high. It is believed that this will hinder many of the opportunities for growth going forward.
Liquidity is the lifeblood of a financial system, and ease of movement is necessary to synchronize and capitalize on Market opportunities through the Banking System.
There is a delicate balance between companies and the government that has to be maintained in order to keep companies in the hands of the people, and not, taking over by the Government because of liquidity issues.
Between now and March the 11th, 2024, many adjustments will be made to secure company growth through these new Basel 3 Capital requirements. At that time, old liquidity will give way to a commodity-based support system. ISDA Link

(Kitco News) - Although gold has started the new year on a quiet note as prices consolidate above $2,000 an ounce, one investment firm expects a sequence of new all-time highs as both gold and silver embark on a long-term bull market.
In their recently published 2024 outlook, analysts at AuAg Funds said they expect to see a 20% rally in gold prices this year, pushing the market past $2,400 an ounce.
The Sweden-based investment firm expects a shift in the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy to drive the rally in precious metals.
“We believe that central banks will shift away from rate hikes and adopt a more accommodative policy stance in 2024, which will catalyze a substantial upswing in gold prices for the foreseeable future,” the analysts said in the report. Kitco News Link

Dedollarization is accelerating, and countries around the world are accumulating gold at a rapid pace.
Piepenburg has been skeptical that the BRICS will develop a gold currency. He says the BRICS nations do not have to have a gold currency to use gold in trade.

In this regard, economist Ahmed Moati said that the world has alerted to the existence of a crisis because of the United States of America and because of the dollar, so it abandoned it in trade exchange between countries.
In remarks to Sada Al-Balad, Moati pointed out that there have been attempts led by Russia and China for some time to overthrow the role of the US dollar in global trade, and the reason is due to the desire of the two countries to weaken the hegemony of the United States on the world.
He continued: "In the coming period, we will see countries relying on other currencies instead of the US dollar.
He explained that what is happening from the solidarity of countries side by side is a concern for the dollar, especially if the BRICS countries agree to such bilateral agreements regarding intra-regional trade.
It is worth noting that the BRICS Group has begun to abandon the dollar in global business dealings.
There are international agreements between many countries to start trade exchange in the local currencies of those countries, as China and Brazil agreed to exchange local currencies for them instead of using the dollar, and the volume of trade exchange between the two countries is 150 billion dollars.
90 percent of trade exchange between Russia and China is conducted in rubles and yuan, amounting to more than $260 billion, in addition to agreeing with a number of their trading partners worldwide on trade exchange in the local currencies of these countries.
Russia and Iran also agreed to develop a gold-backed cryptocurrency as an alternative to the dollar, as well as another agreement between Russia and India to abandon the dollar in intra-regional trade, not to mention that the Russian ruble has become the main currency within the CIS countries.

CandyKisses: Iraqi PM meets 57 Businesses at meeting in Davos
Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani has attended a working meeting on the sidelines of the Davos Economic Forum in Switzerland, involving the heads and representatives of 57 global companies specializing in energy, oil, gas, and various economic sectors.
During the meeting, he discussed the government's plans for development and economic reform, highlighting significant progress made. He also emphasized substantial investment opportunities, industrial city projects, the Grand Faw Port project, and the Development Road project, along with integrated oil field projects.
Prime Minister Al-Sudani pointed out solar and renewable energy projects undertaken with Chinese and Emirati companies, confirming the government's broad focus on gas investment and expanding investment opportunities in this promising sector. Additionally, he mentioned housing projects that have started and others planned across all Iraqi provinces.
Highlighting the importance of banking reforms implemented by the Central Bank of Iraq, he stressed the ongoing efforts to comply with international financial and banking system standards by engaging with international banks.

CandyKisses: IMF welcomes Iraq's accession to a program that supports economic reforms
Economy News - Baghdad
The Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) welcomed on Thursday Iraq's accession to a non-financing program to support economic reforms, during her meeting with Prime Minister Mohamed Shia Al-Sudani to meet in Davos.
The Prime Minister's Information Office said in a statement received by "Economy News" that "Sudan met with the Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund, Kristalina Georgieva, on the sidelines of his participation in the Davos Economic Forum held in Switzerland."
During the meeting, they discussed the financial cooperation relations between Iraq and the International Monetary Fund, within the framework of supporting the development path in Iraq.
Al-Sudani pointed to "the government's plans in the field of economic and financial reform, as a gateway and basis for all reforms planned by the government in all vital sectors.
Georgieva welcomed Iraq's accession to a non-financing program to support economic reforms, as meetings with the IMF begin next month to implement this program.
She also praised "the steps taken by the government in the field of the financial and banking system, and improving the business and investment environment," expressing "understanding of the specificity of Iraq and the challenges it faces."
Fuze: The primary Economic Program for economic development of a country is Artcle 8 compliance. This article states Iraq has ascended to this mysterious program, to begin implementation next month!!!!! Not without a REER (reel effective exchange rate) you won't!!!
This is huge News!!!!
Tishwash: The Chinese government holds a special conference on the Iraqi development road
The Chinese government intends to hold a special conference on the Iraqi development road project, according to what was announced by its ambassador in Baghdad, Cui Wei.
This came during his meeting with the Minister of Transport, Razzaq Muhaibas Al-Saadawi, today in the ministry building, to discuss ways of joint cooperation between the two countries.
The minister said in a statement to the ministry’s media office, “We look forward to strengthening the partnership with China, which represents a friendly country to the government and people of Iraq. We also believe in the scientific and technological progress that Beijing possesses, and we want to benefit from Chinese experiences in various fields of transportation.”
Al-Saadawi stressed that the Ministry's doors are open to all reputable Chinese companies to benefit from investment opportunities in railway and port projects along the development path.
The statement indicated that the two sides agreed during the meeting to hold a meeting between the competent Iraqi and Chinese authorities, to prepare a precise study that includes identifying all technical aspects related to the development path.
In turn, the ambassador revealed his country's government's desire to participate in the project, after reviewing its full details and economic feasibility.
He noted that the embassy had previously sent its economic advisor to the General Company for Iraqi Railways to learn about the details of the project, as the Beijing government has a serious desire to participate in the project.
The ambassador revealed his country's government's intention to hold a special conference on the path to development, and to officially authorize the Chinese National Development and Reform Commission to communicate with the Iraqi Ministry of Transport regarding the project.
He said that Beijing's participation in the path of development will reflect positively on the Iraqi side, indicating that the People's Republic of China wants its relationship with Iraq to be more effective.
The Chinese ambassador invited the Minister of Transport to visit Beijing to enhance joint cooperation between the two countries in the fields of transport.
It is noteworthy that many Arab, regional and European countries have expressed their willingness to participate in the Iraqi development road project at the level of construction and investment, as it constitutes an important link between the continents of Asia and Europe.
The value of the development road project is estimated at $17 billion to connect the “Great Port of Al-Faw” for goods on the southern Iraqi coast to the border with Turkey by extending a railway and road network.
The development road aims to link the port of Al-Faw in southern Iraq, which is rich in oil, with Turkey, turning the country into a transit center by shortening travel time between Asia and Europe in an attempt to compete with the Suez Canal.
The Iraqi government envisions high-speed trains transporting goods and passengers at speeds of up to 300 kilometers per hour, in addition to extending lines to local industrial and energy centers, which could include oil and gas pipelines.
According to the plans, the main transportation roads will be linked to the main port of Al-Faw on the shores of the Gulf through modernizing and building more than 1.2 thousand kilometers of railways and highways linking Iraq to neighboring countries. link

Breaking Down The Coming $20 Trillion Debt Tsunami
Breaking Down The Coming $20 Trillion Debt Tsunami SB
Notes From the Field By Simon Black January 17, 2024
Tony Fauci should be in a prison cell in Wuhan right now given how much responsibility he bears for destroying US government finances. This guy was one of the chief architects of the hysteria that took over the US (and much of the world) back in 2020.
Yet he now admits, according to recent Congressional testimony, that his infamous six-foot social distancing edict “sort of just appeared” and was “not based on any data”.
But it was precisely those sorts of claims that prompted politicians to close schools and business across the country, and to pay people to stay home and NOT work.
The financial results of this insanity are clear; the US national debt increased by an unbelievable $6.5 trillion during 2020 and 2021. And while there is a lot of blame to go around-- politicians had ample time to find their intellectual courage-- Fauci is extremely culpable.

Tony Fauci should be in a prison cell in Wuhan right now given how much responsibility he bears for destroying US government finances. This guy was one of the chief architects of the hysteria that took over the US (and much of the world) back in 2020.
Yet he now admits, according to recent Congressional testimony, that his infamous six-foot social distancing edict “sort of just appeared” and was “not based on any data”.
But it was precisely those sorts of claims that prompted politicians to close schools and business across the country, and to pay people to stay home and NOT work.
The financial results of this insanity are clear; the US national debt increased by an unbelievable $6.5 trillion during 2020 and 2021. And while there is a lot of blame to go around-- politicians had ample time to find their intellectual courage-- Fauci is extremely culpable.
Now, the US fiscal situation was already in bad shape prior to 2020. I remember back in 2019, when the economy was booming and federal tax revenue was at a record high, the US national debt STILL increased by more than $1 trillion that year.
And I wrote to our readers wondering-- if the United States government still manages to add $1 trillion to the national debt when everything is awesome, what’s going to happen when there’s a real emergency?
Well, Tony Fauci gave us the answer the following year.
But even now that Covid is over, government overspending is still extreme. And it’s not getting any better.
I’ve been writing about this a lot lately, but today I need to explain where this is headed, and why it’s so inflationary.
Consider that, according to the Congressional Budget Office’s own forecasts, the United States will add another TWENTY TRILLION DOLLARS to the national debt through 2033.
Now, 2033 is a REALLY important date, because it also happens to be the year that Social Security’s primary trust fund completely runs out of money.
Social Security is funded in large part by workers who contribute a portion of their paychecks into the program through the FICA/payroll tax.
Social Security uses that tax revenue to pay monthly benefits to retirees across the country. And any surplus left over is rolled into a special trust fund.
Over time, the accumulated surplus in the trust fund amounted to roughly $3 trillion dollars; and all that money was invested in interest-bearing government bonds.
Between the payroll tax contributions and the trust fund’s interest income, Social Security always ran a healthy surplus.
Until recently.
Starting in 2020, there were so many retirees receiving Social Security benefits that the program barely broke even for the year.
The following year, 2021, was even worse. Social Security ran a deficit for the first time ever and had to dip into its trust fund to make ends meet.
This trend kept up in 2022 and 2023 as well. In fact, the program loses so much money now that its trust fund is shrinking rapidly, and the Social Security Administration projects it will fully be depleted by 2033.
One of the many, many reasons this is so important is because Social Security will no longer be a BUYER of US government bonds. It will be a SELLER. And that’s a big deal.
For the past 90+ years, Social Security always invested its annual surplus into government bonds… which essentially gave politicians an extra pile of cash each year to spend.
But now this cash flow will reverse. Instead of Social Security sending its surplus to the Treasury, the Treasury Department now must repay the debt that it owes to Social Security.
This nearly $3 trillion repayment will happen gradually over the next ten years. And then, of course, in 2033, Social Security will be out of money and require a multi-trillion-dollar bailout.
Unfortunately, the Treasury Department doesn’t have the money to repay this $3 trillion debt, let alone another $5 to $10 trillion to bail out Social Security.
This means that, in addition to the $20 TRILLION in new debt that the CBO is projecting over the next ten years, the Treasury Department will have to borrow an ADDITIONAL $3 trillion to repay Social Security. And then even more to bail out the program
(So, this means that the government will need to find someone to buy $23++ trillion of government bonds over the next ten years… which is just an absurd amount of money.
And it will have to do this at a time when it has lost some of its biggest investors; again, Social Security can no longer afford to buy bonds. And many of America’s biggest foreign bondholders, including China and Japan, are also not buying any more bonds.
So, who is going to buy all this new debt?
The only realistic option is the Federal Reserve. And this is nothing new for the Fed.
During the pandemic, for example, the Fed magically created about $4 trillion in new money, then used that money to buy US government bonds.
Of course, their $4 trillion in new money also helped create the highest inflation in four decades.
So, if buying $4 trillion of government bonds led to 9% inflation, what’s going to happen when the Fed has to create $20+ trillion to buy government bonds?
And by the way, the CBO’s $20 trillion estimate on new government debt is probably a bit too optimistic. It assumes there will be no new war, no pandemic, no national emergency, and no idiotic legislation that causes even crazier spending.
If any of those were to happen over the next decade, the increase to the national debt would be even higher… meaning the Fed would have to create even MORE money.
$20+ trillion is a ton of debt. And with no other realistic option other than the Federal Reserve to buy that debt, it’s easy to make a very strong argument for substantial inflation a few years down the road.

"The year 2024 might witness significant progress in U.S. regulations for stablecoins, according to Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire. Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Allaire expressed optimism about an impending approval of a stablecoin bill, citing the ongoing global momentum in digital currency regulations."
Circle, the Digital Network Company backing the stablecoin USD Coin, recently filed a confidential S-1 registration with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This registration process is a requirement in order to offer a new introductory product offering on the market. It tells us that their intentions are to go public inside the new Digital Asset-Based Trading System.
So now, we have the beginning stages of tokenized assets (spot Bitcoin ETF) beginning to populate on the markets and soon a digital dollar to process these transactions.

Each step of the way puts us closer to our goals. The USDC coin was tested all year long in 2023 to see if it would be able to hold its value. With algorithmic and gold-backed asset support, it was able to stay within a stable range of value compared to other stablecoins.
