chattels   When the official facebook page of Iraqi Ministry of Health re-published Sadr's tweets on his "instructions" for doctors & other on Covid-19, you get a sense of how dysfunctional & shaky the health institution is. https://twitter.com/M_Balsam/status/1238545306821824513

chattels   The word dysfunctional applies to most everything in Iraq.

chattels   Given the situation, a few words on the current Iraqi Health Minister, Jaafar Allawi, are worthwhile. #InsideIraqiPolitics subscribers will note that we covered his election last October in No. 203/10-11. His nomination was surprising as he had lived outside Iraq since 1972.

chattels   Dr. Allawi - a relative of Iyad Allawi, but not a member of his party - is an endocrinoligist, and apparently a fairly distinguished one.

chattels   I tried looking up his bio on the ministry's website, but it turns out that the Iraqi Health Ministry's website isn't working (at least I can't get it to come up). Maybe this is why they are dependent on Facebook. Not encouraging. https://moh.gov.iq

chattels   How the U.S. Can Stop the Surge of Deadly Rocket Attacks in Iraq

Americans in Iraq are being killed by Islamic State terrorists and government-backed Shiite militias. Is there a better response than more missile strikes? https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/03/13/iraq-airstrikes-shiite-militias-islamic-state-128210

biff   Them missiles are a timer. Once the launcher is set up on the vehicle or ground they set the timers and leave the area

chattels   " ............. the U.S. should toughen its mindset, quietly bringing the force protection assets into Iraq that it needs (i.e., Patriot missiles and anti-rocket close-in defenses) without further consultation with an Iraqi government that would rather adopt a “don’t ask, don’t tell” approach.

And finally, the U.S. should let the militias keep over-reaching, keep showing their hand as would-be dictators under Iran’s control, while the U.S.-led coalition keeps helping Iraq to defeat the Islamic State. This is a game we can win."

biff   Durning the war they would ice in the tube. Once the ice melts the primer hits the firing pin the missile launched

chattels   Friday, March 13, 2020 As Talk Of Expelling US Forces From Iraq Dies Down Attacks Upon Americans Pick Up

http://musingsoniraq.blogspot.com/2020/03/as-talk-of-expelling-us-forces-from.html

chattels   Retired Prime Minister Adil Abdul Mahdi informed the Americans that Baghdad wanted them to withdraw, but then nothing happened. That was because the government fell into crisis over its inability to select a new premier to replace Abdul Mahdi.

With nothing happening on the political front Tehran might have authorized its allies to move back to the use of force to harass Washington. That would mean Iran and its friends are undeterred by American retaliation and these types of incidents could continue for the foreseeable future.

chattels   2020: IRAQ’S PERFECT STORM

Posted by Iraqi Thoughts | Mar 2, 2020 | https://1001iraqithoughts.com/2020/03/02/2020-iraqs-perfect-storm/

chattels   The continued protests, coupled with the lack of leadership and the looming economic crisis make for a perfect storm in Iraq as it approaches the searing heat of its summers. The political elite need to think about the next four to six months and work towards solutions to the above-mentioned problems.

Otherwise they could see themselves as the former political elite of the country as Iraq descends into further instability and greater chaos.

chattels   A change in the political elite may be the cure for what ails Iraq, but it will be very messy for awhile.

sandyf   @Kaperoni sandyf As for floating the currency, it is the natural progression to get off the peg once the create the conditions for a private sector/market economy.

"getting off the peg" is not a natural progression for an emerging economy, it is a desperation measure used by countries in trouble. If it was a natural progression, Kuwait would have done it years ago.

I would certainly agree that there will be no overnight RV and any redenomination would be at least 2 years away.

Sandyf   @Kaperoni sandyf That being said I think you need to read the IMF article for consultations with Iraq and you will find that they are encouraging the CBI to accept Article VIII to send a message to the world that they are open for business.

I read the IMF publications as a matter of course. The IMF started a concerted effort in the mid 90's to get countries into Art 8, but to date Iraq and about 16 others have resisted the pressure. If Iraq wanted to be in Art 8, it could do so very quickly.

At the end of the day the so called auctions are related to Iraqi revenue and as long as the revenue is foreign currency based the auctions will remain.

Floating the currency is always an option to any country, when the currency is in trouble it is often seen as preferable to multiple devaluations. Iraq is being pushed along the same road as Egypt and that currency lost 50% of it's value overnight.

sandyf   @Francis Albert Not sure where this "float" thing is coming from. All currencies go up and down based on people buying and selling them. I believe there's over 5 Trillion, (that's a T) bet on the FOREX market every DAY. And all currencies are basically pegged to the dollar whether they like it or not.

Garbage. Only currencies on a floating exchange rate are driven by market forces. Fixed rate is exactly that,"fixed".

Forex is a relationship trading vehicle, trading is done in pairs, just because a fixed rate currency is part of a pair does not mean it's value is changing.

Kaperoni   sandyf For the most part you are correct. Iraq could accept Article VIII, but fear plays a part since it is a one way decision. The IMF does not allow a country to return to Article XIV once accepting VIII. I o expect sooner or later if they want to diversify their resources they will accept it.

As for floating the currency, it is the natural progression to get off the peg once the create the conditions for a private sector/market economy. That would be called an "orderly exit." Currently, due to a lack of a prime minister, a cabinet, the laws needed along with low oil and Coronavirus it is creating the "perfect storm" for Iraq's economy and speeding up the transition. In fact, often called a "disorderly exit."

I am not a fan of this situation but it is what it is and we will have to see what the CBI decided to do..wait for the perfect conditions or just throw the oars in the water and row for a few months until this passes.

Again, Egypt and other countries that have chosen to float are not Iraq. I do expect if they choose this now for it to devalue some, but not much or for very long. Predictions are 1300-1350 to $1.

Editing Date: 11/3/2020 17:59 • http://www.alliraqnews.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=87817

chattels   The meeting was attended by the finance, oil and planning ministers, the governor of the Central Bank and a number of agents, consultants and economic experts.

Baxter   Stock Market up almost 2000 points...as Trump speaks..

 Chattels   So this is "caretaker" PM Adil Abd al-Mahdi's speech from Wednesday, with my comments below. His main point is that Iraq is not about to collapse totally, which I guess is true if you set the bar for what constitutes "collapse" high enough.   https://youtube.com/watch?v=oX-fxrd6j34

chattels   Right off, mins 1-4, he makes what I think is an absurdly wrong statement about the oil collapse, saying that a 50% drop in oil prices would still leave Iraq with $30-40bn instead of $75bn before.

That can't be right. Fixed costs of oil production means that if oil prices are reduced by 50%, Iraq's revenue should drop much faster, because the fixed costs including payments to IOCs are going to take up a much larger portion of $35bn than $70bn. Our oil experts can provide more precise figures, but it can't be a proportional drop. https://twitter.com/UticaRisk

Chattels   Next Abd al-Mahdi says Iraq won't go insolvent bc of the oil collapse. This is true, but the reason he gives for this is misleading. He cites Iraq being 34th in the world in PPP, but that's Iraq's total GDP. Iraq has a larger GDP in PPP terms than several European countries but this has no relationship to Iraq's solvency. Iraq has a larger GDP in PPP terms than Norway but does not have similar credit worthiness. He later does mention borrowing from the CBI, which will have to keep Baghdad afloat in 2020.

Chattels   " .............. the CBI, which will have to keep Baghdad afloat in 2020."

Dave   1.35 here

Doug_W   chattels amazing

Baxter   yeh.. a liter  whoopie

Doug_W   3.76 liters a US gallon

chattels   Abd al-Mahdi says SOMO thinks that the rebuilding of reserves around the world will make a substantial difference in oil demand. I doubt that. He is right that shutting down shale wells in the US will help, but a gradual increase over 2020 to $50-60 leaves Iraq in a huge hole.

Dave   "afloat in 2020.".......

chattels   At min 18 he says oil could cover operational expenses. No way it will do that this year. Parl't Finance Comm Chairman Haytham al-Jiburi says that oil revenues are over $6bn short of just covering salaries, pensions & similar basic payments.

chattels   Abd al-Mahdi talks about coronavirus at min 20 and makes statements I find credulous. He first mispeaks & says Iraq's infection rate is 1.8%, then corrects to 1.8 per million, then compares this favorably to figures published in European countries. There is a problem here.

Dave   Kap will catch that......

chattels   While it is true that Iraq's officially reported figures to WHO are about that, 70 total as of March 12, I can't believe AAM finds these numbers credible. Given how quickly the virus has spread in Iran & elsewhere & the amount of contact there has been, that # can't be real.

Doug_W   nope

chattels   AAM: he closes the speech by talking about progress in agriculture under his govt plus the new China deal (both favorite topics). I'll note that there is a fair amount of criticism of the China deal, & it can't be approved until there is a new govt.

chattels   AAM also talks about the large amount of waste in the budget that could be cut, & "dead money" sitting in accounts unspent in various places that can be used to plug the hole. That raises the question of why he didn't address these things last year.

chattels   In sum: AAM is probably right the Iraqi state is not going to just collapse entirely, but given the existing urgent need for CapX investment, going a lengthy period of time with almost no investment + growing population means Iraq got closer to a permanent dead end under him. https://twitter.com/UticaRisk

chattels   Incredible to step back and realize that Iraqi leader presiding over late-stage plummet to insolvency and complete collapse basically defends status quo by saying "it's not the end of the world yet." https://twitter.com/tcambanis

chattels   More astounding is after the 24 min talk full of inaccuracies and empty talk he tells those present I called meeting to try identify problems Iraq faces. After all these years and his time in office, he still needs to identify the problems? When does he start making decisions? https://twitter.com/iraqoilforum/status/1238487103056547840

chattels   I actually hit "pause" and didn't listen to the last 30 seconds, but it is interesting he says they need to talk to identify problems, then decide at some point on whether the "caretaker" govt can pass the budget. He should have been an academic. https://twitter.com/UticaRisk

Doug_W   Former minister: Iraqi dinar on the way to "float"

Doug_W   https://www.ikhnews.com/index.php?page=article&id=210860

Wilder   Baghdad – news   The former minister, Amer Abdul-Jabbar, confirmed today, Wednesday, that the Iraqi dinar is on the way to floating, in light of the sharp decline in oil prices, while noting that employees should expect that during the coming days their salaries will be deducted.

"The continuation of monetary policies and the current government in the same contexts with the sharp decline in oil prices will be catastrophic, and the employee should expect to deduct his salary, perhaps for half, or spend part of his salary every two months," noting that "the next stage may witness a reduction in employee salaries, deductions and taxes to reduce the budget deficit." .

He added that "the Iraqi dinar is on its way to float (i.e. reduce its value), and the Iraqi government may have to increase the exchange rate of the dollar to 1250 dinars against the dollar in order to obtain additional funds estimated at 4 trillion dinars in the budget and this matter is positive because it will allow encouraging the national industry because it will raise the value Imported goods and makes domestic competitive. "

KRnMS   Oh no, It’s time to kill some Iranian militia, rockets hit a base in Iraq that killed an American and two UK troops, HIT EM

Wilder   He added, "We are afraid of a government decision to reduce the price of the dinar against the dollar to 1300 or 1350 in the event that the drop in oil prices is catastrophic. This float will cause the price of commodities to rise and burden the citizens. The state may use it to reduce the budget deficit."

Abdul-Jabbar continued, "The government's decision to place customs and other exemptions to remove visa amounts with some neighboring countries has harmed Iraq and contributed to preventing the entry of important revenues to the state," noting that "since 2018, he warned of low oil prices in 2020".

He pointed out that "the advisory base available to the Prime Minister is not qualified to deal with major crises, especially those related to low oil prices." Because it will take the place of others. "

And Abdul-Jabbar said, "The recent appointments made by the Prime Minister killed the state and burdened its finances, and there is a 200-square-meter department with 270 employees."

He added, "Even if the budget is announced on the 1st to 12th, the country will face difficulties due to the current circumstances."

I believe there's over 5 Trillion, (that's a T) bet on the FOREX market every DAY. And all currencies are basically pegged to the dollar whether they like it or not.

As the Iraqi Dinar rises in value after going International on FOREX, the money currency players on FOREX make on a rising Dinar comes from other traders, not Iraq.

sandyf   @Kaperoni sandyf There are 4-5 Middle East countries floating. Not all of them lost value, not to mention Egypt is not Iraq.

Yes I would agree Egypt is not Iraq, and neither are the other 3 middle east countries that are on a floating exchange rate mechanism, Israel,Turkey and Tunisia. Now tell me which one has significantly increased in value as a floating currency.

sandyf   @Kaperoni sandyf no **** sandy. The auctions absolutely will go away once the CBI accepts IMF Article VIII. There will be little need once the dinar is traded globally.

Obviously you are quite entitled to take any view you choose, but on this point you are way off base. It is all about currency convertibility and IQD will only be a partially convertible for many years to come. Conversion to full convertibilty requires a history that can only be built up over a long period of time.

Unless there is a bilateral agreement only a fully convertible currency can be used in international trade. That being the case the majority of Iraq's revenue will be in foreign currency for many years yet, the so called auctions are the mechanism used to convert foreign currency to domestic currency, a mechanism used by many countries around the globe.

Forex trading is a separate issue altogether and once Iraq is under Art 8 it doe not become a certainty that forex traders will wish to handle it. The KWD is seen as an exotic currency with low volume trade, traders prefer stable floating currencies, the last thing they want is slow moving or volatile currencies.

xyz   gurus demand

Kaperoni   sandyf I have never stated that the Iraqi dinar would be globally accepted World Wide right away in fact if anyone is conservative it's me. I have stated over and over and over again that most banks just because Iraq would accept article 8 doesn't necessarily mean that they would deal in Iraq's currency.

Even though many gurus like to say that people will run to banks to cash out that is unlikely to be the case. That being said I think you need to read the IMF article for consultations with Iraq and you will find that they are encouraging the CBI to accept Article VIII to send a message to the world that they are open for business. Here is a quote...

Kaperoni   "25. The government will gradually remove remaining exchange restrictions and a multiple currency practice (MCP) with a view to eliminating exchange rate distortions.

Such a move towards acceptance of the obligations under Article VIII of the IMF’s Articles of Agreement will send a positive signal to the investor community that Iraq is committed to maintain an exchange system that is free of MCPs and restrictions for current international transactions and thus facilitate creation of a favorable business climate.

* Reconsidering the currency auction and adjusting the dollar exchange rate, so as not to burden the poor class.

Al-Sudani concluded by saying, "These are the most important measures to confront a budget whose deficit is estimated at (60) trillion dinars and revenues. If the barrel of oil continues to be sold at $ 30, it will not pay the salaries of employees and retirees."

"The value of the Iraqi dinar will decrease in relation to the US dollar, and the reason is that the Iraqi dinar will represent a weaker economy as oil prices continue to decline due to lower global industrial production," Davis said in a tweet on Twitter.

He added that "Iraq has 95% of its external revenues from selling oil. Iraq must diversify its economy."

chattels   The names currently circulating are still the same in the past / Mustafa Al-Kazemi - Asaad Al-Eidani - Ali Al-Shukri / The matter is still in circulation without reaching agreement on a specific candidate so far.

As many as 100,000 have perished in the inferno -- more than either the Hiroshima or Nagasaki bombings. It will be remembered as history's deadliest air attack. https://twitter.com/MilHistNow

chattels   Not only will Baghdad have to borrow from the CBI's large but not infinite reserves to pay salaries & other operating expenses, it will also have to borrow to pay oil companies. No one is going to like that.

chattels   Capital expenditure, already very low, will be close to zero. Yes there is always some CapX money left over from previous years bc of administrative inefficiencies, but those inefficiencies will remain & will only be a very small portion of the vast chasm which has opened up.

chattels   & let's remember that public sector bloat is not just the legacy of decades past, but is caused by the recent actions of current actors. Thus in late 2018 parliament forced the new govt to ramp up operations spending in the budget. That was huge mistake which limits freedom of action now, since without a 2020 budget Baghdad can spend 1/12 of last year on operations, but it won't even have that money. These inflated operations costs were inflated further in recent months in response to protests.

chattels   Also, remember that Baghdad can't borrow from abroad. Foreign contracts including loans have to be approved in the budget. The 2018 budget prohibited foreign loans for new contracts, but although it has expired, a new budget would be needed to authorize new foreign loans.

chattels   Khilani Square is several hundred meters away from Tahrir Square, which has become the thumping heart of the anti-government protests.

The overwhelmingly young crowd initially limited its demands to improvements in public services, employment opportunities, and action against corruption. However, since the bloody crackdown by security forces and pro-government militias, their demands have grown with calls for the complete overthrow of the post-2003 elite.

More than 600 people have been killed and around 18,000 injured in clashes, according to Amnesty International.

Everything is moving and happening exactly as I told you it would...remember their goal is to make Iraq look worse than it is...they're doing that politically. Economically. Everything. So now ask yourself why would they have all these crappy lying articles to make the country look like it's completely upside down in terrible shape and then they have these amazing banking articles. That should raise a red flag to you. We're right on track. Nothing on my side has changed...

Patty   Dave Our little local banks charges $35.00 for a currency exchange regardless of how many bills of that one currency you want to exchange....however, they take the bills and submit them to the fed reserve facility for verification and exchange.

Of course our little bank doesn't exchange Zim, maybe not Dong either. I really am not comfortable with leaving the currency with them - even though I have copies of everything - I don't think that would matter. No faith in my little bank.

Dave   Bank of America does verification of currencies

Dave   not all banks have those Dela Rue machines

Dave   Little banks ..........lots of added charges?

Dave   1-3% is the most i have yet to pay for any exchange

Patty   Dave At least be prepared for what you have to pay, unless you can negotiate.

Dave   Patty negotiate?

sandyf   @Sam I Am The plan is stability ... political stability, economic stability, exchange rate stability

Plans are of little use if they cannot be implemented. The Iraqis had decades of dictatorship and appear to be unable to cope with democracy. Fairly good chance that Maliki may return to the helm, after all he has the qualities that some may prefer.

sandyf   @Sam I Am Kaperoni Okay, I just checked and Egypt went off the peg 3 years ago ... that one slipped past me because I quit following this stuff

Yes, and the currency lost 50% of the value overnight, not really what people are looking for.

Patty   Dave I'll leave money in your bank for 3 months, but I don't want to pay to initiate the exchange, etc.

sandyf   @Kaperoni Sam I Am well at least as long as the currency auctions exist

The so called auctions are never going to go away, there are 30+ countries using this mechanism.

"A stable exchange rate is an important objective for central banks and can be used as a monetary policy instrument to stabilize price levels. The nature and structure of the Iraqi economy, with its undeveloped financial system, makes the foreign exchange rate an important monetary policy instrument to stabilize and control economic agents’ and individuals’ inflation expectations.

The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI hereafter) is working hard to monitor and stabilize the foreign exchange rate, as it is the main instrument in has to control money supply and achieve other targets where traditional monetary policy instruments are ineffective .

Since 2004 the CBI has intervened directly in the foreign exchange market using an auction window as an instrument in the open market. The auction window for selling foreign currency is the main formal channel to meet the demand for foreign currency."http://www.ekof.bg.ac.rs/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/554.pdf

Dave   Usually 2-3 days here

Kaperoni   sandyf no **** sandy. The auctions absolutely will go away once the CBI accepts IMF Article VIII. There will be little need once the dinar is traded globally. In fact, it is preferred. And once the dinar floats, the global financial system will trade the dinar and its value will be determined by market forces.

Kaperoni   sandyf There are 4-5 Middle East countries floating. Not all of them lost value, not to mention Egypt is not Iraq. The IMF wants countries to float and in will be a necessity if Iraq has success building a private sector market economy due to the pressure created on the financial system. It is absolutely necessary. Remember Iraq needs over 60 billion dollars just to rebuild infrastructure they do not have that kind of money.

Matt   Jeff is also saying March 17 or 20 something? 2020 https://www.iqdcalls.com/Dinar-Investor.html

Wilder   Matt rv?

Matt   Yes

Matt   I would not count on it but? never know???

Kaperoni   Patty It is unlikely that you will ever got to a bank to exchange dinar. At least initially. Most banks are very conservative by nature and that means staying clear of volatile countries. An certainly it wont be to exchange for some mythical overnight RVI/RI that will not happen. I would expect the dinar to become a currency more applicable to the foreign exchange market (Forex) and traded/sold among market makers or brokers. I would not look to run to a bank to exchange anytime soon. Just not feasible or possible with so much currency in circulation.

Matt   He / Jeff thinks the market will go to 20K... which is is headed down to?

Kaperoni   My guess is that we end up setting up some kind of brokerage account and managing the dinar like any other foreign currency.
