Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

Sanctions Shock Reversal: U.S. Moves to Release Iranian Oil as Energy Crisis Escalates

Emergency policy shift signals deep strain in global energy markets and financial stability

Overview

In a major geopolitical and financial shift, the United States has temporarily eased sanctions on Iranian oil to stabilize surging global energy prices.

The move comes as the war-driven energy crisis pushes oil prices sharply higher and threatens global economic stability.

Approximately 140 million barrels of oil are being released into global markets, highlighting the urgency of the situation.

This decision reflects a deeper reality: traditional policy tools are being stretched as the global system faces mounting pressure.

Key Developments

1. U.S. Relaxes Sanctions to Ease Supply Shock

The U.S. government authorized the release of Iranian oil already in transit, aiming to reduce immediate supply shortages and price spikes.

This marks a significant pivot from prior sanctions policy, signaling economic stabilization is now a priority.

2. Oil Prices Surge Above Critical Levels

Energy prices have risen over 50%, surpassing $100 per barrel, driven by war-related disruptions.

This rapid increase is feeding directly into global inflation and economic uncertainty.

3. Strait of Hormuz Disruption Drives Crisis

The effective disruption of the Strait of Hormuz, which carries about 20% of global oil supply, has intensified supply fears.

Without stable passage, even emergency measures may have limited long-term impact.

4. Policy Options Are Becoming Limited

The U.S. has already:

• Released strategic reserves

• Relaxed restrictions on other oil producers

• Adjusted shipping regulations

This latest move suggests fewer remaining tools to stabilize markets.

5. Global Energy System Under Stress

Despite intervention efforts, analysts warn that:

• Supply disruptions persist

• Infrastructure attacks continue

• Market volatility remains elevated

This indicates a systemic energy imbalance rather than a temporary disruption.

Why It Matters

Energy markets are the foundation of global economic stability.

When governments must reverse sanctions policy to stabilize markets, it signals:

• Severe supply stress

• Policy constraints

• Heightened systemic risk

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

Oil shocks drive:

• Currency volatility

• Inflation pressures

• Shifting capital flows

Countries dependent on energy imports face increased financial strain and currency weakness.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1: Policy Flexibility Reaches Limits

Emergency actions like sanction reversals highlight fragility in the global economic framework.

• Pillar 2: Energy Becomes a Strategic Financial Lever

Control over energy flows is increasingly shaping:

• Trade systems

• Currency power

• Global alliances

Conclusion

The decision to release Iranian oil is not just a policy adjustment—it is a signal of stress within the global financial system.

When geopolitical strategy shifts to protect economic stability, it reveals how interconnected—and vulnerable—the system has become.

Global Economy Hit by War Shock: Inflation, Growth, and Markets All Reprice at Once

Iran conflict triggers multi-layered economic disruption across energy, trade, and finance

Overview 

The global economy is being rapidly reshaped as the Iran war sends shockwaves across energy markets, trade systems, and financial forecasts.

Economists are now warning of:

• Higher inflation

• Slower economic growth

• Rising recession risks

What began as a regional conflict is evolving into a global economic event with systemic implications.

Key Developments

1. Economic Growth Forecasts Are Being Downgraded

Major institutions are revising projections downward, expecting:

• Slower GDP growth

• Reduced consumer spending

• Rising unemployment

The outlook has shifted from stability to heightened economic uncertainty.

2. Inflation Pressures Surge Globally

Oil price spikes are pushing inflation higher, with projections rising toward 3.7% in the near term.

This creates a ripple effect across:

• Food prices

• Transportation costs

• Household expenses

3. Energy Shock Ripples Into Supply Chains

The war is disrupting:

• Oil flows

• Fertilizer shipments

• Industrial production

This is impacting global food supply and manufacturing output.

4. Recession Risks Climb Sharply

Analysts now estimate nearly a 50% probability of recession, driven by:

• Energy shocks

• Inflation spikes

• Market uncertainty

This reflects a rapid deterioration in economic confidence.

5. Markets Struggle With Uncertainty

Financial markets are reacting to:

• Unpredictable geopolitical developments

• Volatile energy prices

• Shifting economic expectations

Uncertainty itself is becoming a major economic headwind.

Why It Matters

This is no longer just an energy issue—it is a full-spectrum economic disruption affecting:

• Growth

• Inflation

• Trade

• Financial markets

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

Economic instability drives:

• Currency fluctuations

• Capital flight from weaker economies

• Shifts in global reserve preferences

This can reshape currency dynamics worldwide.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1: Economic Fragility Exposed

The rapid shift in forecasts highlights how sensitive the global system is to geopolitical shocks.

• Pillar 2: Acceleration of Structural Change

Countries may respond by:

• Diversifying trade and energy sources

• Reducing reliance on vulnerable supply chains

• Exploring alternative financial systems

Conclusion

The Iran war is transforming from a geopolitical conflict into a global economic stress test.

Inflation is rising, growth is slowing, and markets are repricing risk—all at the same time.

This convergence signals something deeper:
the global financial system is under pressure and actively adjusting to a new reality.

Iraq Economic News And Points To Ponder Saturday Afternoon 3-21-26

India Refineries Eye Iranian Oil As US Eases Sanctions

2026-03-21 Shafaq News- New Delhi/ Tehran  Indian refiners are preparing to resume purchases of Iranian oil following a temporary easing of US sanctions, Reuters reported on Saturday, as Asia weighs options to ease a growing energy squeeze.

Three sources in India’s refining sector said companies plan to buy Iranian crude but are awaiting government guidance and clarification from United States authorities on payment terms and conditions.

The move follows a 30-day sanctions waiver issued under President Donald Trump, allowing purchases of Iranian oil already loaded onto vessels as of March 20, with unloading permitted until April 19, according to the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).  Industry sources said other Asian refiners are also exploring similar purchases, signaling a potential shift in regional supply flows.

Indian refiners, which hold relatively lower crude inventories than some Asian peers, have recently moved to secure alternative supplies, including Russian oil, after the easing of restrictions.

Iran’s oil ministry spokesperson Saman Qadousi said earlier that Tehran does not currently hold floating crude or surplus volumes in global markets, describing US statements as aimed at influencing market sentiment.

Oil Could Hit $170 If Hormuz Closure Persists

2026-03-21 Shafaq News – Baghdad   Fitch Ratings warned that oil markets could face sharp volatility in 2026 if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed amid ongoing regional conflict.

In a report, the agency said Brent crude could average $120 per barrel if the strait stays shut for six months, compared with around $100 under a three-month disruption scenario.

Fitch said shipping through Hormuz has been heavily affected by the war involving the United States, Israel, and Iran, raising concerns over global oil supply.

Under a shorter closure, prices could spike to $130 per barrel during the disruption, before easing to about $90 by year-end, the report said.

In a prolonged six-month scenario, Brent could trade between $130 and $170 per barrel during the closure period, before falling back toward $90 later in the year.

Fitch’s baseline forecast places Brent at an average of $70 per barrel in 2026, with a temporary rise to $100 in March, easing to $90 in the second quarter, and declining to around $60 thereafter.

USD/IQD Trading Halts In Baghdad And Erbil For Eid Al-Fitr

2026-03-21 Shafaq News- Baghdad/ Erbil   US dollar exchange rates were not officially recorded in Iraq on Saturday as trading activity halted for the Eid al-Fitr holiday.

Despite the market closure, a limited number of exchange shops continued operating in parts of Baghdad, with the dollar selling at around 155,500 Iraqi dinars per 100 dollars and buying at 154,500 dinars.

In Erbil, markets had closed their last session on Thursday ahead of the holiday, with rates recorded at 154,600 dinars for selling and 154,500 dinars for buying per 100 dollars.

Gold Prices Dip In Baghdad, Erbil Amid Eid Al-Fitr Slowdown

2026-03-21 Shafaq News- Baghdad/ Erbil  On Saturday, gold prices fell to around 1 million IQD per mithqal in Baghdad and Erbil markets, tracking a downturn in global exchanges alongside the Eid al-Fitr holiday.

In Baghdad, jewelry shops operated on a limited basis, with trading activity remaining weak. The selling price of 21-carat Gulf gold ranged between 995,000 and 1.005 million IQD per mithqal (equivalent to five grams), while Iraqi gold traded between 965,000 and 975,000 IQD.

In Erbil, prices mirrored the decline in Baghdad, with markets largely closed due to the holiday, curbing trading activity. Earlier data from Thursday showed 22-carat gold selling at 1,085,000 IQD per mithqal, 21-carat at 1,035,000 IQD, and 18-carat at 887,000 IQD.https://www.shafaq.com/en/Economy/Gold-prices-dip-in-Baghdad-Erbil-amid-Eid-al-Fitr-slowdown

Iraq Holds Power At 14,000 MW As Iran Gas Resumes

2026-03-21 10:30   Shafaq News- Baghdad    Limited Iranian gas supplies have resumed to Iraq, helping stabilize the national electricity grid at around 14,000 megawatts, the Electricity Ministry announced on Saturday.

In a statement, ministry spokesperson Ahmed al-Abadi described the system as operating under a “planned and closely monitored” framework. Resumed gas flows at about 5 million cubic meters per day helped contain the impact of the earlier disruption, he clarified, noting that the ministry managed alternatives, including reallocating domestic gas and coordinating with the Oil Ministry to secure substitute fuel.https://www.shafaq.com/en/Economy/Iraq-holds-power-at-14-000-MW-as-Iran-gas-resumes

Strategic energy projects remain on track and unaffected by recent developments, the spokesperson added, citing combined-cycle upgrades, a liquefied gas platform in Khor al-Zubair, and electricity interconnection with neighboring countries as key pillars to strengthen grid capacity.

Earlier this week, Iranian gas supplies had stopped completely, cutting more than 3,000 megawatts from the national grid, according to the ministry. The disruption followed reported Israeli strikes on facilities linked to Iran’s South Pars gas field —part of the world’s largest offshore gas reserve shared with Qatar— and energy infrastructure in Asaluyeh.

Iraq continues to face chronic electricity shortages despite its oil wealth, with demand typically reaching 50,000–55,000 megawatts during peak summer months, compared to current production of about 27,000–28,000 megawatts. Iranian gas covers roughly 40% of the country’s fuel needs and supports nearly one-third of its electricity generation.

The Strait Of Hormuz And The "Great Shock" Scenario: Can Iraq Withstand The Revenue Hit?

Reports   Economy News – Baghdad   The Iraqi economic situation today intersects with one of the most critical chokepoints in global energy trade: the Strait of Hormuz. With the escalating US-Iranian tensions and reports and leaks circulating about potential US military action against Iran, the strait has returned to the forefront not only as a shipping lane but also as a bargaining chip that could be used should diplomatic efforts collapse.

This tension coincides with negotiations that began in Muscat and then moved to Geneva, and with an increasing American military buildup in the region, while Iran monitors the movement of ships using speedboats, missile platforms, and radars that track the movements of the American fleet.

Within this context, talk of Hormuz does not seem to be merely a theoretical scenario. According to the aforementioned data, approximately 20 million barrels of oil pass through the strait daily, representing more than a quarter of seaborne oil trade and about 11% of the volume of global trade, which means that any disruption to it would have an “immediate shock” to markets, energy, marine insurance, and shipping costs.

Despite the continued passage of giant oil tankers and the uninterrupted movement, the “cautious calm” prevailing at the narrowest point of water in the region indicates that the market is reading the possibilities before they occur, and that the level of risk is priced in advance.

Iraq at the heart of the conflict

But the most sensitive aspect in this context is Iraq's position within the equation. Unlike some Gulf states that have alternative outlets and routes, Iraq practically relies on exporting via the south, through the Gulf, and then the Strait of Hormuz.

Here, expert statements stand out as a direct warning bell because they link "politics" to the immediate financial impact on the state and salaries. Economic expert Nabil al-Marsoumi lays out the scenario in numerical terms: if the Strait of Hormuz is closed, Iraq will be prevented from exporting its oil southward by sea, causing exports to plummet from 3.4 million barrels per day to a mere 210,000 barrels per day; of which 200,000 barrels would be transported via the Turkish port of Ceyhan and 10,000 barrels per day to Jordan by tanker.

Crucially, al-Marsoumi's analysis dismantles the "illusion of price compensation": even if the closure were to drive oil prices up to $150 per barrel, Iraqi oil revenues would still drop from approximately $7 billion per month to less than $1 billion, a level he estimates "only sufficient to cover 14% of salaries."

Al-Marsoumi attributes the fragility to the lack of ready alternatives, stressing that Iraq, unlike Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Iran, does not currently have complete alternative methods for exporting oil, concluding with a grim result that the country has no quick solutions other than "hoping to prevent war or to prevent a shutdown."

This description intersects with what oil and energy expert Kovand Sherwani puts forward, but from another angle it expands the circle of influence and shows the extent of Iraq's dependence on the strait.

Shirvani reminds us that any military confrontation and Iran's move to close the Strait of Hormuz would have major repercussions for global trade and oil supplies, because 20% of the world's oil passes through this strait.

Then he turns to the specific case of Iraq: More than 90% of Iraqi oil is exported through the Strait of Hormuz, meaning a loss of revenue from approximately 3.5 million barrels per day if exports cease. If the closure continues for a month, Iraq could lose more than $6 billion, representing nearly 90% of its total revenue. Herein lies the gravity of the situation: the problem is not the price increase or decrease, but rather the "severing of the artery" that funds the budget and the state.

Oil expert Haider Abdul-Jabbar Al-Batat's comment completes the analytical circle and readjusts public expectations: Yes, oil prices often rise globally at any threat to Gulf supplies, and this may give Iraq "temporary" financial gains under normal circumstances, but Al-Batat warns that any actual disruption to exports through the Gulf or closure of the Strait will mean a disruption to revenues despite the global price increase.

In other words: the market may push the price higher, but the Iraqi treasury will not catch these gains if the pipelines and ports are not operating, because the revenue is ultimately the product of the price and the exported quantities, and when the quantity drops to a small fraction, the "price increase" becomes incapable of saving the budget.

Conflicting media reports are circulating about the timing of a potential US strike on Iran. CBS reported that the strike could begin as early as Saturday, while the BBC indicated that the US military had informed the White House of its readiness to launch a strike by the end of the week.

Axios also reported a high probability of military action in the coming weeks, described as potentially "massive." Simultaneously, the same article stated that Iranian state television announced the closure of the Strait of Hormuz for several hours as part of "Smart Control of the Strait of Hormuz" exercises, with Revolutionary Guard naval commander Ali Reza Tangsiri stating that the decision to close the strait rested with senior regime officials and that readiness was in place "at any time."   https://www.economy-news.net/content.php?id=65900

Conflict, Energy Shock, and the New Financial System

Conflict, Energy Shock, and the New Financial System

Miles Harris:  3-21-2026

The world is on the cusp of a significant transformation in its financial systems, driven by the ongoing global conflict, energy shocks, and the need for a more resilient and transparent financial architecture.

In a recent video analysis, presenter Miles Harris offers a comprehensive examination of these events, challenging conventional narratives that focus solely on inflation, recession risks, and geopolitics.

 Instead, Harris positions these developments within a broader systemic redesign, where the current turmoil is not just about isolated economic or geopolitical factors, but about a fundamental shift in how financial systems operate.

The current financial system, characterized by opaque, credit-driven leverage models, is giving way to transparent, collateral-based programmable money ecosystems.

This transition is being driven by the need for greater resilience, speed, and transparency in financial transactions.

Energy, particularly oil and industrial metals like copper, plays a critical role in this transition, as disruptions in energy supply chains cause widespread ripple effects across industry, logistics, and food production, driving volatility and repricing in commodity and risk markets.

The divergence between the physical infrastructure and commodity supply, which faces strain and contraction, and the financial infrastructure geared toward digital, high-speed settlement, which is accelerating, highlights a paradox.

While copper prices have sharply declined, signaling demand destruction and economic contraction fears, the US stablecoin market capitalization has surged dramatically, indicating the rise of tokenized, programmable settlement systems underpinning the new financial architecture.

War acts as a catalyst in this transition by exposing systemic fragilities, accelerating deglobalization, legitimizing state intervention, and pushing the system towards greater transparency and surveillability.

The new financial order prioritizes collateral control, programmable strategic finance, and state-directed capital allocation, especially in strategic minerals critical for infrastructure and technological development. This shift entails a move from market-driven credit growth to prioritized resource allocation, where liquidity becomes harder and leverage more controlled.

The presenter foresees a divergence within commodity markets, where strategic commodities will likely gain price support through state backing and collateral prioritization, while others will remain volatile and demand-sensitive.

The mining sector, currently suffering due to energy cost inflation and supply disruptions, is positioned for eventual consolidation and efficiency improvements under the new system.

The video conveys a cautionary message about the implications of this transition.

While the new system promises resilience and faster settlements, it also entails enhanced surveillance, conditional access to money, and abstraction of finance through smart contracts.

This raises concerns about loss of clarity and autonomy for individuals, as financial access becomes increasingly conditional and controlled. To prepare for these changes, individuals may consider diversifying their assets, with physical silver being a potential safe haven amid the shift.

The ongoing global conflict, energy shocks, and the transition to a new financial system are interconnected and interdependent.

As the world navigates this complex landscape, it is essential to understand the broader systemic redesign underway. By recognizing the drivers and implications of this transition, individuals and organizations can better prepare for the changes ahead and navigate the emerging financial landscape.

 Watch the full video from Miles Harris to gain further insights and information on this critical topic.

“Tidbits From TNT” Saturday 3-21-2026

TNT:

Tishwash:  Washington warns attacks by “Iran-aligned militias” threaten Iraq’s stability

 The US State Department on Wednesday condemned attacks by “Iran and Iran-aligned militias” targeting American interests in Iraq, warning that continued assaults could threaten the country’s stability and risk drawing it into “a broader regional conflict.”

A State Department spokesperson told Shafaq News that such incidents have repeatedly targeted “U.S. diplomatic personnel and facilities, civilian targets, and energy infrastructure in Iraq.”

The spokesperson also referred to recent remarks by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who urged Iraqi authorities to “take all possible measures to safeguard U.S. diplomatic personnel and facilities and ensure militia groups cannot use Iraqi territory to threaten the United States or the region,” noting, “Doing so is in Iraq’s interest.”  link

Tishwash: The dollar is manipulating the Shammar dishdashas, ​​but Rabia will not compromise on her Eid elegance.

The dollar is above 1500 dinars, and vendors are talking about prices that are double, even in the most remote cities of Iraq.

 With the arrival of Eid al-Fitr and people heading to the markets to shop, residents of Al-Awainat village, which belongs to the Rabi’a district in Nineveh, compare prices last year with current prices. Sellers say that a clear increase can be observed, reaching double the price for some goods. Rifa’i Shatti, the owner of a children’s clothing store, told 964 Network that children’s dresses were sold last year for prices close to 10,000 dinars, while this year they have reached 30,000 dinars.

In their simple analysis and reading of the market, the locals attribute this rise to the large increase in the dollar exchange rate, which exceeded the threshold of 155,000 dinars per hundred dollars, in addition to the new customs tariff system “ASYCUDA”, which ended the estimated customs duties on containers and turned them into specific customs duties for each imported item.

Sales at Hadhil Abdul Karim's wholesale food store were unaffected, because buying sweets is an indispensable part of the holiday traditions, no matter how high the prices rise.

Fadel Halil, a citizen from Al-Awainat village, told 964 Network that the used dishdasha (bare) he used to buy for Eid was much more expensive than last year, demanding fairness from shop owners and merchants. Anwar Tharwi, the owner of a men's (new) clothing shop, indicated that the price increase was also evident in his products.  link

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

Tishwash: Washington grants temporary sanctions waiver for Iranian oil sales

The United States has granted a temporary 30-day sanctions waiver for the sale of Iranian oil at sea, in a move aimed at easing pressure on global energy supplies amid escalating military tensions in the region.

Reuters quoted US Treasury Secretary Scott Bisent as saying that the Trump administration had issued a general license allowing the sale of Iranian crude oil and petroleum products loaded onto ships, effective from March 20 to April 19.

Bisent explained that this step comes as part of efforts to increase supply in global markets, noting that opening this supply temporarily could add about 140 million barrels of oil, which would contribute to easing pressure on markets and stabilizing prices.

This is the third such exemption in about two weeks, indicating a phased US approach to dealing with the repercussions of disrupted energy supplies, in parallel with the continuation of sanctions imposed on Tehran.

These measures come at a time when global energy markets are facing increasing challenges as a result of geopolitical tensions, prompting a number of countries to take exceptional measures to ensure stable supplies and avoid sharp price fluctuations.  link

Global Reset Series – Part 4

The Global Payment System Is Being Rebuilt

International regulators are working to modernize cross-border payments, which remain slow and costly despite advances in financial technology.

Overview

Cross-border payments remain one of the most outdated components of the global financial system.

Many international transfers still rely on complex correspondent banking networks, which can result in:

• slow settlement times• high transaction fees• limited transparency

To address these issues, the G20 has launched a global initiative to modernize payment infrastructure.

Key Developments

1. International institutions are coordinating reforms

Organizations leading these efforts include:

• Financial Stability Board• Bank for International Settlements• International Monetary Fund

These institutions are working to create faster, cheaper, and more transparent global payment systems.

2. New technologies are enabling faster settlement

Modern payment platforms are experimenting with:

• real-time payment networks• distributed ledger technology• multi-CBDC settlement platforms

These technologies could reduce cross-border settlement times from several days to minutes or even seconds.

3. The G20 has set ambitious targets

The reform initiative aims to:

• reduce transaction costs to around 1%• dramatically increase payment speed• improve transparency across international transfers

Why It Matters

Payment infrastructure is the plumbing of the global financial system.

Modernizing these systems could significantly improve global trade efficiency and financial integration.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

A faster and more efficient payment system could change how currencies are exchanged and settled internationally.

This is one of the key pillars of any evolving global financial framework.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1 — Global Settlement Infrastructure

Modern payment rails could enable near-instant international financial transactions.

• Pillar 2 — Financial Efficiency

Reduced costs and faster payments could increase global economic activity.

Seeds of Wisdom Team View

Payment systems often evolve quietly, but they shape how money flows across the world.

The modernization of global payment infrastructure may ultimately become one of the most important financial upgrades of the digital age.

A Message to Our Currency Holders

If you’ve been holding foreign currency for many years, you were not foolish.

You were not wrong to believe the global financial system would change.

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

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

That is not your failure.

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

Instead, we focus on:

• Verifiable developments • Institutional evidence

• Global financial structure • Where countries actually sit in the process

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

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

Protect your identity. Organize your documents.    Verify everything.

Never hand your discernment to anyone who cannot show proof.

You deserve truth — not timelines.

Iraq Economic News And Points To Ponder Saturday Morning 3-21-26

Wholesale Dollar Trading In Baghdad And Erbil Has Stopped Due To The Eid Holiday.

Money and Business   Economy News – Baghdad   No exchange rates for the US dollar against the Iraqi dinar were recorded today, Saturday, in the markets of the capital, Baghdad, due to the suspension of trading coinciding with the Eid holiday.

However, a limited number of exchange shops continued to operate in some areas of Baghdad, where the selling price was recorded at about 155,500 dinars per 100 dollars, while the buying price was 154,500 dinars.

In Erbil, the markets had closed their last transactions on Thursday, with prices reaching 154,600 dinars for selling and 154,500 dinars for buying per 100 dollars, before the start of the Eid holiday.   https://www.economy-news.net/content.php?id=66958

European Markets Suffered Weekly Losses As Oil Prices Rose And Investors Anticipated An Interest Rate Hike.

Money and Business   The recovery in European indices did not last long, as they closed with a collective decline on Friday, March 20, and suffered weekly losses, as oil prices rose and investors studied the cautious tone adopted by central banks across the continent during the previous session.

The pan-European STOXX 600 index fell 1.5%, reversing its morning gains. All major regional exchanges and sectors posted negative performance.

Meanwhile, the German DAX index fell by 1.94%, closing at 22,397.43 points.

The French CAC 40 index fell by 1.82% to 7,665.62 points.

Meanwhile, Britain’s FTSE 100 lost about 1.45% to 9,917.60 points.

The European Central Bank announced yesterday that the conflict has created upside risks to inflation and downside risks to economic growth, prompting traders to increase their bets on the likelihood of the ECB raising interest rates later this year.

Central Banks Hold Interest Rates Steady

British government bond yields continued their upward trend on Friday, as concerns about an inflationary shock driven by rising energy prices weighed on borrowing cost expectations. Yields on two-year bonds, which are most sensitive to the Bank of England's interest rate policies, jumped 20 basis points to 4.614%.

Meanwhile, yields on 10-year bonds, the benchmark for British government debt, reached their highest level since the 2008 global financial crisis, at 5.020%, marking a rise of 17 basis points during the day.

This increase coincided with new data from the Office for National Statistics showing that total UK public sector borrowing reached £14.3 billion ($19.1 billion) in February, an unexpected year-on-year increase of £2.2 billion.

The Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee voted unanimously on Thursday to keep interest rates steady, with policymakers saying they were "ready to act" to offset the effects of the war, again increasing bets on an interest rate hike later this year.

The European Central Bank announced that the dispute had created "upside risks to inflation and downside risks to economic growth," prompting traders to increase their bets on the likelihood of the ECB raising interest rates later this year.

But European Central Bank policymakers have pointed out that there is considerable uncertainty surrounding the long-term impact of the war, as its effect on inflation depends on the duration of the conflict and the impact of energy price volatility on consumer prices and the economy.

Investors currently expect a greater than 50% probability of an interest rate hike at the European Central Bank's next meeting in April. Traders are pricing in a 100% probability of the Bank of England raising interest rates by June, according to data from the London Stock Exchange Group.

Iranian Ministry Of Petroleum: No Oil Available For International Markets

Today,   The spokesperson for the Iranian Ministry of Petroleum, Saman Qoddusi, has responded to statements made by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent regarding the lifting of sanctions on Iranian oil currently held on tankers to assist in lowering global prices.

Writing on the "X" platform, Qoddusi stated: "At the present time, Iran fundamentally possesses no floating crude oil or surplus supply for other international markets."

He added: "The statement by the U.S. Treasury Secretary is intended solely to offer hope to buyers and exercise psychological control over the market."

Bessent had previously remarked that "in the coming days, we may lift sanctions on Iranian oil located at sea, the quantity of which amounts to approximately 140 million barrels." He indicated that releasing sanctioned Iranian oil into global supplies would contribute to reducing crude prices within the next 10 to 14 days.

Oil Minister: Fuel Stations Operating 24/7, Supply Stable Across Iraq

Today    Baghdad – INA    Oil Minister Hayyan Abdul-Ghani on Friday announced the availability of gasoline, cooking gas, gas oil, and kerosene at fuel stations across Iraq.

Speaking at a press conference followed by the Iraqi News Agency (INA), Abdul-Ghani said, “Today we toured several oil companies operating in Basra, including Basra Oil Company, the country’s primary producer of crude oil and exporter to international markets,” noting that “many measures were discussed in light of the current circumstances.”

He added that “a plan has been developed with the company to reduce production and halt exports from the southern outlets,” explaining that “this plan focuses on supplying crude oil necessary to operate refineries and power plants.”

Abdul-Ghani noted that “the company’s production prior to February 28, 2026, was estimated at 3.3 million barrels per day, while today it has dropped to around 900,000 barrels per day, including 250,000 barrels allocated to southern refineries, with the remaining quantities directed north to operate refineries in central and northern provinces.”

He further explained that “we also visited South Gas Company, a joint venture between Shell and Basra Gas Company for dry and liquefied gas production, where gas collected from fields across Basra—such as Zubair, Rumaila, and West Qurna—is processed into dry gas for power generation and liquefied gas for cooking purposes.”

Abdul-Ghani added, “We also visited South Refineries Company, a key entity in the refining sector with a design capacity of about 250,000 barrels per day, producing white products such as gasoline, diesel, gas oil, kerosene, and some cooking gas, all of which are distributed across Iraq.”

He pointed out that “there are refinery byproducts, mainly black oil and naphtha. Previously, black oil was exported via a pipeline from Shu’aybah to Khor Al-Zubair and loaded onto tankers. However, due to halted exports and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, storage overflow occurred, and these byproducts must now be processed to sustain refinery operations.”

Abdul-Ghani added that “the Ministry of Oil has begun signing new contracts to sell crude oil via tanker transport to outlets outside Iraq,” confirming that “through a crisis cell formed under a Cabinet decision granting exceptional powers, the Ministry managed to process these byproducts to maintain refinery operations and ensure the continuous supply of white products to the domestic market.”

He emphasized that “all fuel stations operate 24 hours a day, and all products are available, including gasoline, gas oil, and kerosene,” noting that “these measures are a top priority for the Ministry to guarantee product availability for citizens.”  Abdul-Ghani concluded that “local markets remain stable thanks to the availability of products.”

Oil Minister: Basra Oil Production Reduced To 900,000 Barrels Per Day

Deputy Prime Minister for Energy Affairs and Oil Minister Hayyan Abdul-Ghani on Friday announced the reduction of Basra oil production to 900,000 barrels per day.

The Ministry said in a statement received by the Iraqi News Agency (INA) that “Deputy Prime Minister for Energy Affairs and Oil Minister Hayyan Abdul-Ghani Al-Sawad chaired a meeting on Friday at Basra Oil Company, attended by Undersecretary for Extraction Affairs, Basim Mohammed Khudair, Director General of Basra Oil Company, Basim Abdul-Karim, and senior company staff, to discuss the crude oil production plan in light of recent regional developments.”

According to the statement, the Minister said, “Since the halt of exports from the southern ports, production at the company has been reduced from 3.3 million barrels to 900,000 barrels,” noting that “the quantities produced are being directed to operate refineries.”  https://ina.iq/en/economy/46875-oil-minister-basra-oil-production-reduced-to-900000-barrels-per-day.html

US Nut Exports To Iraq Break The $30 Million Barrier

Money and Business     Economy News – Baghdad   The US Departments of Agriculture and Commerce announced on Saturday that the value of US nut exports to the Iraqi market reached a record high, exceeding $30 million in 2025.

According to official data, the quantity of shipments supplied amounted to about 5,606 metric tons, with a total value of $30.57 million, reflecting a radical shift in the volume of trade between the two countries within this food sector.

Statistics showed that the average value of US nut exports to Iraq during the last decade had been stable at $12.43 million annually, meaning that the recently recorded figures represent an exceptional growth rate of 392%.

Observers attribute this rapid rise to increasing local demand in Iraq for high-quality products, and the expansion of American supply chains that have begun to take a larger share of the Iraqi market compared to previous years.

Indonesia Seeks To Raise $5 Billion To Counter The Fallout From A War With Iran

Money and Business   Economy News - Follow-up   Indonesian presidential spokesman Prasetyo Hadi said in an interview published Saturday that Indonesia is seeking to save an estimated 80 trillion rupiah ($5 billion) from its budget to cope with the fallout from a US-Israeli war on Iran.

In a video interview with a number of journalists and experts, President Prabowo Subianto said that his country is making strenuous efforts to improve the efficiency of its budget to cope with the repercussions of the conflict.

The Indonesian central bank had kept its interest rate unchanged last Tuesday, as policymakers monitor the impact of the war in the Middle East on the economy and the local currency, the rupiah.

Central Bank Governor Perry Wargio said the war in the Middle East is worsening the outlook for both the global economy and supply chains, and that the space for monetary easing is shrinking worldwide.

He added that the central bank needs to anticipate and deal with the repercussions of the war on the Indonesian economy and financial markets in order to maintain growth momentum.

$1.8 Trillion Market Meltdown has Begun as Private Credit Bubble Pops

$1.8 Trillion Market Meltdown has Begun as Private Credit Bubble Pops

Lena Petrova:  3-20-2026

The private credit market in the United States has experienced rapid growth over the past decade, driven by stricter bank regulations following the 2008 financial crisis.

 As traditional banks pulled back from lending, private investment funds such as Blackstone and Apollo Global Management stepped in to fill the void, providing loans to midsized and riskier firms.

However, this trillion-dollar market is now showing signs of strain, with rising interest rates, widespread defaults, and lack of transparency exposing significant vulnerabilities.

According to Fitch Ratings, the default rate in private credit has reached a record high of 9.2% in 2024, the highest since tracking began. These defaults are not limited to one sector but are widespread, affecting smaller middle-market companies with higher debt and low earnings.

The floating-rate nature of many private credit loans means that borrowers are facing increasing debt servicing costs as benchmark interest rates rise, squeezing cash flows and elevating default risks.

Unlike traditional banks, private credit funds operate with much less regulatory oversight and transparency, making it difficult for investors, regulators, and the market to accurately assess risk exposure. Additionally, private credit loans are illiquid, which complicates investor exit strategies during times of financial stress.

Recently, some funds have restricted withdrawals, further underscoring liquidity challenges.

The problems in private credit extend beyond niche investors, with large institutional investors such as pension funds, insurance companies, and university endowments having significant exposure.

This raises concerns about the potential impact on retirees, policyholders, and overall financial stability. Given the close ties between private credit and private equity, stress in one area could cascade into the other, amplifying systemic risks.

The current economic environment, characterized by elevated interest rates, uncertain growth prospects, and the maturing of debt taken on during prior low-rate periods, constitutes a “real-time stress test” for borrowers and lenders alike.

Private credit flourished during years of easy money but is now revealing its vulnerabilities as financial conditions tighten. The future of private credit remains uncertain; it could either adapt to the new environment or become a source of financial strain, potentially influencing the trajectory of the U.S. economy in the coming years.

While experts do not currently foresee a crisis on the scale of 2008, the ongoing rise in defaults and tightening credit conditions could lead to reduced lending, slower business investment, lower hiring, and weaker economic growth.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has flagged private credit as an important area to monitor closely, indicating the seriousness of the issue.

The private credit market is facing significant challenges, with rising defaults, lack of transparency, and liquidity challenges exposing vulnerabilities. As the market continues to evolve, it is essential to monitor the situation closely, as the potential risks could have far-reaching consequences for the broader financial system.

For further insights and information, watch the full video from Lena Petrova, which provides an in-depth analysis of the rapidly growing but increasingly strained private credit market in the United States.

Iran Kills Petrodollar? What Markets Aren't Pricing In | Mario Innecco

Iran Kills Petrodollar? What Markets Aren't Pricing In | Mario Innecco

Liberty and Finance:  3-19-2026

Mario Innecco discusses the sharp volatility in gold and silver, attributing the recent selloff to short term trading behavior rather than long term fundamentals.

He argues that geopolitical tensions involving Iran may be accelerating a shift away from the petrodollar system, especially with reports of oil being transacted in yuan.

The conversation highlights how energy markets, including oil and natural gas, are being disrupted by conflict and sanctions, which could have global economic ripple effects.

 Mario suggests that rising bond yields and fiscal pressures are signaling deeper structural issues rather than traditional inflation dynamics.

Overall, he remains bullish on hard assets, viewing current price declines as part of a larger transition rather than a breakdown in fundamentals.

Central Banks Shift Course: War-Driven Inflation Shock Reshapes Global Monetary Policy

Energy crisis forces policymakers into a tightening stance, signaling stress across the financial system

Overview 

Global central banks are rapidly shifting toward a more hawkish stance as the Middle East conflict fuels a renewed inflation surge.

The war involving Iran, United States, and Israel has triggered a sharp rise in energy prices, forcing policymakers to reconsider earlier expectations of rate cuts.

Markets are now adjusting to a new reality: higher inflation, higher interest rates, and tighter financial conditions.

This marks a critical shift because monetary policy is one of the core pillars of the global financial system.

Key Developments

1. Central Banks Turn Hawkish Amid Energy Shock

Major central banks—including the European Central Bank and Bank of England—are signaling potential rate hikes instead of cuts due to rising inflation risks.

This reflects a major pivot from earlier expectations of easing monetary policy in 2026.

2. Inflation Risks Surge Due to Energy Prices

Oil and gas price spikes are feeding directly into global inflation forecasts, with worst-case scenarios rising significantly.

Energy-driven inflation is particularly dangerous because it spreads across:

• Transportation

• Food production

• Manufacturing

• Consumer goods

3. Interest Rate Expectations Rapidly Reprice

Markets that previously expected rate cuts are now pricing in hikes, especially in Europe and other developed economies.

This shift is tightening global liquidity conditions.

4. Currency Markets Begin to Realign

The divergence in central bank policy is already impacting currencies:

• The U.S. dollar is weakening against major currencies

• The euro, yen, and pound are gaining strength

This reflects capital moving toward regions with higher expected interest rates.

5. Growth Risks Increase as Policy Tightens

Central banks now face a difficult balancing act:

• Control inflation

• Avoid triggering recession

Higher rates may slow growth, especially in energy-dependent economies.

Why It Matters

Monetary policy determines:

• Cost of borrowing

• Liquidity in markets

• Investment and growth cycles

A global shift toward tighter policy signals rising systemic stress.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

Changing interest rate expectations directly impact:

• Currency valuations

• Capital flows

• Purchasing power

As currencies realign, global exchange dynamics are being reshaped in real time.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1: Monetary System Under Pressure

The shift from easing to tightening highlights fragility in the global monetary system.

• Pillar 2: Policy Divergence Accelerates Change

Different responses among central banks could:

• Fragment financial systems

• Accelerate regional currency blocs

• Shift global capital flows

Conclusion

The energy-driven inflation shock is forcing central banks into a rapid and coordinated policy shift.

This is more than a short-term reaction—it signals deeper structural pressure within the global financial system.

As interest rates rise and liquidity tightens, the foundation of global finance is being actively tested.

Energy Crisis Escalates: Global Markets Shake as Oil Shock Triggers Financial Strain

Rising oil prices, supply disruptions, and market volatility signal systemic risk across the global economy

Overview (Key Points)

A deepening global energy shock is sending ripple effects across financial markets, economies, and trade systems worldwide.

Escalating conflict in the Middle East is threatening critical supply routes, particularly the Strait of Hormuz, a key artery for global oil flows.

Oil prices have surged above $100 per barrel, with spikes nearing $119, triggering widespread volatility.

This is evolving into a multi-layered crisis impacting inflation, markets, and economic stability.

Key Developments

1. Oil Prices Surge to Multi-Year Highs

Crude prices have risen sharply due to:

• Supply disruption fears

• Attacks on energy infrastructure

• Reduced shipping through key routes

Brent crude briefly exceeded $119 per barrel, shaking global markets.

2. Strait of Hormuz Disruptions Threaten Global Supply

The Strait of Hormuz carries about one-fifth of global oil supply, making it a critical vulnerability point.

Disruptions are already:

• Slowing tanker traffic

• Increasing insurance costs

• Raising fears of prolonged shortages

3. Financial Markets Turn Volatile

Global stock markets have:

• Declined sharply during price spikes

• Recovered partially as oil pulled back

This volatility highlights how energy prices are driving broader market behavior.

4. Borrowing Costs and Yields Rise

Bond markets are reacting to inflation fears:

• Yields are climbing globally

• Borrowing costs are increasing

In some economies, borrowing costs are reaching levels not seen since 2008.

5. IMF Warns of Global Economic Impact

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) warns that prolonged high energy prices could:

• Increase global inflation

• Reduce economic growth

• Weaken emerging markets

Even a modest slowdown could have global ripple effects.

Why It Matters

Energy shocks affect:

• Inflation

• Economic growth

• Financial markets

• Government policy

Because oil is foundational, price spikes quickly translate into global instability.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

Energy-driven instability leads to:

• Currency volatility

• Shifting capital flows

• Pressure on import-dependent nations

This can significantly impact currency values and purchasing power globally.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1: Energy as a Catalyst for Systemic Change

Energy disruptions are exposing vulnerabilities in the global economic system.

• Pillar 2: Acceleration of Structural Shifts

Countries may respond by:

• Diversifying energy sources

• Restructuring trade relationships

• Exploring alternative financial systems

Conclusion

The current energy crisis is not just a commodity story—it is a systemic financial event.

With oil prices surging, markets volatile, and inflation rising, the global economy is entering a period of heightened stress and transformation.

In a world built on interconnected systems, energy disruption is one of the fastest ways to trigger a broader financial reset.

CBI Says Iraq’s Finances are Stable

CBI Says Iraq’s Finances are Stable

Edu Matrix:  3-20-2026

In a recent Edu Matrix video, Sandy Ingram shared a positive update on the financial stability of Iraq, a country that has been navigating through challenging regional conflicts.

Contrary to previous reports that raised concerns about the country’s financial health, the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) has confirmed that Iraq’s financial foundations are strong and resilient.

According to the CBI, Iraq’s foreign currency reserves are robust, sufficient to cover around one full year of imports.

This significant financial cushion ensures that the government can continue to pay salaries and meet its expenses without interruption, providing a sense of stability and security for its citizens.

The CBI’s assurance is a welcome respite from earlier reports that suggested otherwise, and it’s a testament to the country’s effective financial management.

The CBI is also taking proactive measures to ensure that local banks have adequate cash availability, enabling individuals and businesses to access funds and conduct daily transactions smoothly.

This move is expected to maintain the continuity of international payments and trade, which is crucial for the country’s economic well-being. By doing so, the CBI is demonstrating its commitment to maintaining the stability of Iraq’s financial system.

Furthermore, the CBI has conducted thorough risk assessments and is prepared to act swiftly if economic conditions change.

This forward-thinking approach underscores the bank’s dedication to navigating the complexities of the regional economy and ensuring that Iraq’s financial system remains robust and resilient.

The message from the CBI is clear: Iraq’s financial system is stable, well-managed, and prepared to face current and future challenges. Amidst ongoing regional conflicts, this news is a significant confidence booster, not just for Iraq’s citizens but also for international investors and trading partners.

For those interested in gaining further insights into Iraq’s financial stability, I recommend watching the full Edu Matrix video featuring Sandy Ingram. The video provides a more in-depth analysis of the CBI’s measures to maintain financial stability and the implications for Iraq’s economy.

In conclusion, the Central Bank of Iraq’s recent announcements are a positive development for the country’s economy, and a testament to its ability to navigate complex regional challenges.

As the situation continues to unfold, it’s reassuring to know that Iraq’s financial foundations are strong, and the country is well-equipped to face the future with confidence.

Global Reset Series Part 3

The Rise of Digital Sovereign Currencies: Governments Prepare for the Next Era of Money

More than 130 countries are now exploring digital versions of national currencies, signaling a major technological shift in the global monetary system.

Overview

Governments around the world are studying or developing Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) — digital versions of national currencies issued directly by central banks.

According to the Bank for International Settlements, over 130 countries representing the vast majority of global GDP are researching or piloting CBDC systems.

These digital currencies could allow faster transactions, more efficient payment systems, and new methods for cross-border settlement.

Key Developments

1.Major economies are testing digital currencies

Several large economies have already begun pilot programs:

• China has launched trials of the Digital Yuan through the People's Bank of China• India is testing the e-Rupee through the Reserve Bank of India• The European Central Bank is studying a potential Digital Euro

These projects are designed to explore secure digital payments issued by central banks rather than private financial institutions.

2.CBDCs could transform payment efficiency

Digital currencies issued by central banks may allow:

• instant settlement of transactions• lower transaction costs• improved financial transparency

Some experimental systems are also designed to allow direct cross-border settlement between central banks.

3.Financial institutions are studying the implications

International organizations such as the International Monetary Fund are examining how CBDCs could affect:

• banking systems
• financial stability
• monetary policy transmission

Why It Matters

Digital sovereign currencies represent a major technological evolution in how money moves through the global financial system.

If widely adopted, CBDCs could significantly modernize payment infrastructure and financial settlement.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

Digital currencies issued by central banks could eventually change how cross-border transactions occur, including trade and international payments.

Understanding these developments helps explain how future financial systems may operate more digitally.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar 1 — Digital Infrastructure

CBDCs could become core components of next-generation financial systems.

• Pillar 2 — Monetary Sovereignty

Digital currencies allow central banks to maintain direct control over sovereign money in a digital economy.

Seeds of Wisdom Team View

Money itself is entering the digital age.

While physical cash and traditional banking will continue to exist, central banks are clearly preparing for a future where digital currency infrastructure plays a larger role in global finance.

 🌱A Message to Our Currency Holders🌱

If you’ve been holding foreign currency for many years, you were not foolish.

You were not wrong to believe the global financial system would change.

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

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

That is not your failure.

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

Instead, we focus on:

• Verifiable developments • Institutional evidence

• Global financial structure • Where countries actually sit in the process

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

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

Protect your identity. Organize your documents.    Verify everything.

Never hand your discernment to anyone who cannot show proof.

You deserve truth — not timelines.
