Japan is the fourth-largest export market and trading partner of the United States with a 68 billion trading deficit.

Why this partnership is so important comes of its connection to US Dollars held within their accounts to support the Yen.

Japan is giving an imminent warning that they are going to have to prop up their currency by intervening into the markets.

This means they will be selling their dollars that they have bought over the years to support the Yen from continuing to fall in its price.

As the yen begins the process of leveling the playing field between the price of the dollar against the yen, it will begin to affect the global markets as well.

This move will cause trading deficits and appreciation with other countries around the world as the Yen begins to rise in its price.

Eventually, the move toward more reliance on their Basel 3 compliant policies over the dollar will stabilize the Yen as these temporary measures go into effect.

As we have spoke of recently in this room, we are moving into credit valuation adjustments. This is going to be a big one because of so many trading contracts take place between the US and Japan.

Volatility in the currency markets are about to begin, and they will end with the stabilization of all currencies based upon real values connected to them through gold.

If you think the recent actions to regulate and place laws on Stablecoins is a coincidence, you might want to look again.   Reuters 1   Reuters 2   Trade

I wish he would have sold it to an exchange center instead of a bank. Can you imagine how much he really lost on this exchange.

Copper is now a critical mineral and a global shortage metal. Know what you hold my friends. Know it's worth.

Tishwash:  Will the agreements signed with the US Treasury reflect positively on the exchange rates?

Today, Thursday, economic expert Abdul Rahman Al-Mashhadani stated the possibility of Iraqi getting a green light to contract with Iranian companies that are not sanctioned by the United States, while anticipating the impact of the Central Bank’s agreement with the US Treasury on exchange rates.

Al-Mashhadani said, in an interview with Al-Iqtisad News, “The visit of the Prime Minister, Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani, to America is very positive, but so far the results of what was agreed upon in Washington have not appeared.”

He added: “It is hoped that the Central Bank of Iraq will announce the measures that were agreed upon in Washington, which could have a positive impact on the exchange rate,” pointing out that “the real problem of exchange rates has not yet been solved, which is dealing in trade with banned countries.” .

The economic expert explained, “The economic aspect was the main focus of Sudanese’s visit to Washington, and it became clear through the meetings and discussions held by the Central Bank of Iraq, with the US Treasury regarding the sanctions imposed on Iraqi banks or even the issue of financial transfers to Iran, in addition to the required investments, which "It is possible to sign in the energy field."

He stressed, "Iraq got the other light by contracting with unsanctioned Iranian companies, which allowed the Ministry of Electricity to sign a contract to recover Iranian gas for a period of five years, at a time when the government is heading to end this file after 3 years, according to what was announced  link

Tishwash:  The most difficult option.. Warnings of the danger of floating the Iraqi dinar without achieving an “important condition”

Economist Nabil Al-Marsoumi warned today, Thursday (April 25, 2024), of the dangers of floating the Iraqi dinar, noting that such a step could lead to the dinar witnessing a violent collapse and rampant inflation that would jump prices to insane levels.

Al-Marsoumi said in a post on the social networking site “Facebook”, followed by “Baghdad Today”, that “some are proposing a solution to address the double price of the dollar against the dinar and the existence of a large gap between the official and parallel prices through a free float of the Iraqi dinar,” indicating, “i.e. Turk.” The dinar is in the market to find its price against foreign currencies through the interaction of the forces of supply and demand.

 Al-Marsoumi added, “Such a decision has some economic positives,” adding, “But the economy should not be taken in its abstract aspect, but rather insofar as it relates to people, especially the poor.”

He continued, "In light of Iraq's lack of a national private sector that could contribute to increasing the supply of dollars in the Iraqi market, and because of the large volume of imports, which reach 67 billion dollars annually, the only party that owns the dollar is the government," explaining that "in the event that the government decides not to intervene." In the exchange market, it is expected that the dinar will witness a violent collapse and rampant inflation that will cause prices to rise to insane levels that will cause severe damage to citizens’ living standards, and the poor will become more miserable, and will later lead to social tensions and a major rift in the social peace.”

It is noteworthy that the floating exchange rate or currency float is the currency exchange rate that has been floated so that it has become completely liberalized, so the government or the central bank does not interfere in determining it directly, but rather it is released automatically in the currency market through the supply and demand mechanism that allows the price to be determined. Exchange the national currency against foreign currencies.

It is worth noting that the price of the dollar in the local markets is still experiencing a state of instability between rises and falls, even though the official price in the Central Bank of Iraq is 132,000 dinars per 100 dollars, but in the local markets it is witnessing an increase of more than ten points and may at times reach double this.

The number is despite the numerous measures and packages launched by the Central Bank of Iraq, where some attribute that the reason for this confusion in prices is the result of smuggling operations and speculation in the black market for currenclink

Tishwash:  Will the US withdraw from Iraq?

For the Biden administration, the primary concern regarding Iraq is to avoid a recurrence of the chaotic scenes witnessed during the withdrawal from Afghanistan

 It is being speculated that Israel's ongoing attacks on Gaza since October have prompted a reassessment of the United States' regional policies, sparking discussions within the Joe Biden administration about the potential withdrawal of U.S. troops from Syria and Iraq.

Allegations initially raised by major media outlets like Reuters earlier in the year have resurfaced in light of recent developments in the region.

While these claims have not been officially verified, conflicting statements are emerging from official sources regarding the matter. It is widely recognized that the U.S. Department of Defense (Pentagon) has been the most resistant to the notion of ending the "endless wars," a concept often debated during the tenure of former President Donald Trump but never actualized. However, this issue transcends mere institutional sovereignty; arguments such as the ongoing fight against Daesh no longer suffice to convince the American public to support the expenditure of their tax dollars beyond their borders.

 Furthermore, the consistent support for withdrawal in Trump's stance, coupled with his rising popularity in polls leading up to the upcoming elections, adds pressure on the Biden administration to address this matter decisively.

According to reports in the international press, the issue of U.S. withdrawal from Syria has not yet been addressed. The current focus lies on the U.S. presence in Iraq. Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed S. Al Sudani has repeatedly stated that the mission of the U.S.-led coalition forces in the country has concluded and they should withdraw.

Additionally, the Iraqi Foreign Ministry has announced an agreement between Baghdad and Washington to establish a commission aimed at initiating discussions about the future of the U.S.-led military coalition in Iraq. This commission will be tasked with determining a timetable for the gradual withdrawal of troops and the eventual termination of the coalition's presence.

Iraq vs. Afghanistan contexts

For the Biden administration, the primary concern regarding Iraq is to avoid a recurrence of the chaotic scenes witnessed during the withdrawal from Afghanistan. As Trump emphasized, such "ineptitude" not only undermined U.S. hegemony in Afghanistan but also had repercussions extending from the Gulf to Eastern Europe. The resulting power vacuum led to new regional alliances, such as the Saudi-Iran rapprochement, which excluded the U.S. Moreover, it emboldened China and Russia in their pursuit of expanding spheres of influence.

Hawks in the U.S. assert that a scenario akin to the "apocalypse" witnessed in Afghanistan would unfold should they withdraw from Iraq. However, the contexts of the two nations differ significantly. Despite enduring years of U.S. occupation, Iraq maintains a functional state apparatus and an integrated democratic political system, setting it apart from Afghanistan. Moreover, its economy is self-sustaining.

The impediments to normalization in Iraq include not only the presence of the U.S. and proxy groups like the PKK but also Iran's military presence in the region. 

In this context, Türkiye's role proves invaluable. Ankara boasts seamless political, commercial and cultural ties not only with Iraq's central government but also with the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) in the north. President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's recent visit to Iraq unequivocally underscored Türkiye's pivotal role in fostering stability in the country.

Should the mutual occupation by the U.S. and Iran in Iraq cease, Türkiye could naturally assume a significant role as a mediator in the transitional phase. Such dialogue would serve as a crucial cornerstone for regional peace.  link

 Economic researcher Salah Al-Moussawi revealed today, Wednesday (April 24, 2024), that phosphate is a wealth that will not be depleted in Iraq for hundreds of years, while noting that it achieves a double benefit.

Al-Musawi is one of those who worked for years in the phosphate sector in western Iraq at the end of the seventies of the last century, and he is familiar with the numbers and studies that took place for years about this enormous natural wealth and how it can be invested in a way that leads to a qualitative shift in supporting the agricultural sector.

He said in an interview with “Baghdad Today” that  “fertilizer prices in global markets approached $1,200 per ton, but in Iraq it can be produced for only $200, and this difference gives farmers momentum to reduce production costs at significant rates,” stressing that “phosphate factories are capable of Producing at least one million and 200 thousand tons annually, but the numbers may double with the presence of new lines, and it could constitute a resource not only for the country but also for neighboring countries due to the difference in prices and quality.”

He pointed out that "the phosphate reserves in Iraq are sufficient to operate at current production levels for hundreds of years without being depleted, meaning that we are facing great wealth," stressing that "the Sudanese government has actually begun to move towards investing Iraq's capabilities in several areas away from the oil file because it is aware of the seriousness of the changes." The importance of diversifying the economy, giving greater importance to agriculture, and ensuring its tools, including fertilizers, for survival and growth.”

Optimally investing in phosphate would achieve two main goals at the same time, which is providing fertilizer at prices equivalent to approximately 15% of the import cost, in addition to finding a new export resource away from oil.

Iraq ranks second in the world in phosphate reserves, as Iraq alone possesses 9% of the total global reserve, according to the Iraqi Geological Survey.  link

Nader From The Mid East  This visit to United States it was really good.  All this contracts they signed...all these people want to go to Iraq to do business, start businesses.  It's great.  Now they have the ball in their hands so we see what they're going to do with it.  They're going to score or pass on the side again? 

Breitling  You have these currencies that have a lot of zeros behind it.  Comparing with these other currencies that LOPed, Iraq is a completely different case.  They don't have a market problem.  They don't have a customer problem. Where is the inflation coming from It's coming from policy.  How can they add value to their currency It's all going to be based on 100% policy.  The authority comes from parliament, the Ministry of Planning, Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank of Iraq.  They don't need any more customers.  To add value to the currency they don't need to do anything else.

Yeesss clean up the dollar $$

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

I see two things that have to happen before we see an RV on our paper money. Gold has to be able to withstand anything that is thrown at it, and the QFS has to be completed my friends.

We are looking at the CFTC being able to take us in soon, BUT as they have said in their own words yesterday:

“as soon as technologically practicable.”

Going forward, connections to those who are actually creating the system in the field of technological development are the people who provide us with real Intel.

Everything else, is just simply getting the word around that everything is done and secondary intel.

What is going on behind the scenes in technological advancement is our path forward. The old world has passed away and all things are becoming new.

Let me introduce to you the new World Reserve Asset going forward. Ripple is the new dollar. When Ripple is set free backed by gold, so are we. The Banker

CBI Banker in Iraq Contact:

Dee and I just finished a conversation with our CBI Banker in Iraq with ties to the Foreign Remittance Department.

Iraq is currently increasing the amount of Gold they hold that will support their currency.

Iraq is encouraging people to use a debit (Visa & Master) Card as much as possible, so they can get used to becoming a cashless society.

As far as a rate is concerned, they are looking to move from 1,310 to 1,000 soon.

Many new agreements have been signed with other countries to increase the demand for their currency as of late.

He expressed that they still need more goods to sell to increase their money velocity.

Iraq has not moved to a position of removing the three zeros on their currency just yet.

It was mentioned that they are still working with their Foreign Corresponding Bank to complete their banking reforms this year.

He added, "We do not depend on one country, but rather a group of countries wishing to export their goods to Europe, which will take any of the routes available in the world, including the Suez Canal and the Cape of Good Hope. However, what distinguishes the path of development are several aspects, including a 50% reduction in time." %, also the cost is lower, in addition to being safe.”

Al-Asadi explained, “Many shipping operations are followed by loading and unloading, which leads to damage, but we perform this process only once, that is, from sea to land.”

He pointed out, "Ships need 24 hours to reach from the port of Al-Faw to Paris, and even if we say 72 hours, this is less than the 15 days in which goods arrive via the Suez Canal."  LINK

Zimbabwe’s New Currency Leads to a Stock Market Wipeout

Story by Kailas Salunkhe, TIPRANKS, on MSN

Earlier this month, Zimbabwe introduced a new gold (CM:XAUUSD)-backed currency, called the ZiG (Zimbabwe Gold). However, even a well-intentioned path to fiscal prudence can become paved with unintended setbacks, including a stock market wipeout.

Zimbabwe’s Stock Market Slump

The introduction of the ZiG has resulted in a difficult-to-digest 99.95% wipeout in the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange All Share Index so far this month. This major change required local institutions and businesses to reconfigure their systems to accommodate the new currency, resulting in the rebasing of share prices for all listed companies in the country. According to Bloomberg, investors rushed into stocks prior to the conversion to escape inflation and the collapse of the local dollar (Zimbabwe’s previous currency).

However, the trading volumes and the value of transactions on the exchange have plunged after share prices were rebased in the new currency. The low trading volumes are also taking a toll on the country’s stockbroking industry.

Meanwhile, many Zimbabweans still prefer to transact in the more stable U.S. Dollar. This preference has led to a black market, where the ZiG is trading at nearly 20 ZiG for 1 USD. The official exchange rate from the Zimbabwean authorities is 13 ZiG to 1 USD.

Next Steps

As Zimbabwe embarks on its sixth attempt to introduce a stable and credible currency, the next significant milestone approaches on April 30. This marks the introduction of physical notes and coins in the new currency for circulation across the country.

Putin and China Move To WIPEOUT the U.S. Dollar, Get Ready

Atlantis Report:  4-24-2024

The global financial sector is under pressure as Russia and China are making increased efforts to promote an alternative to the longstanding dominance of the U.S. dollar.

President Vladimir Putin and the Chinese leadership have joined hands to reduce their dependence on the dollar and challenge its status as the world's reserve currency.

This move comes amidst rising geopolitical tensions and strained relationships between the United States and key players such as Russia and China.

 These factors have set the stage for a disruption in global finance.

BRICS vs European Union: The End of Western Bulleying

BRICS vs European Union: The End of Western Bulleying

Fastepo:  4-23-2024

BRICS+ significantly outperforms the European Union in several key areas, leveraging its expansive natural resources and developing robust financial systems to enhance its global standing.

With major oil producers like Saudi Arabia and the UAE, BRICS+ now controls a substantial portion of the world's oil production, in stark contrast to the EU's minor role and heavy reliance on energy imports.

 Additionally, initiatives like the New Development Bank and efforts towards de-dollarization, particularly by Russia and China, illustrate BRICS+'s strides in reducing dependence on Western financial systems and the US dollar in international trade.

In agriculture, countries like China, Russia, and Brazil contribute massively to global grain production, with China alone far surpassing the EU's output.

Collectively, BRICS+ not only accounts for a larger population but also a significant share of global GDP, enabling it to exert considerable influence in international forums.

This economic scale and resource control position BRICS+ as a formidable counterbalance to traditional Western powers, contrasting with the EU's focus on sustainability and regulatory standards in economic development.

 In this video, we analyze the standing of the European Union against BRICS+ as of April 2024.

We explore the strengths of each bloc and discuss their prospects, comparing the outlook for BRICS+ and the European Union.

Turkey, Iraq, Qatar and the UAE signed in Baghdad yesterday a four-way memorandum of understanding for cooperation on the "development road" project, under the auspices of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Iraqi Prime Minister Muhammad Shia al-Sudani.

The "Development Road" project is a road and railway extending from Iraq to Turkey and its ports, with a length of 1,200 km inside Iraq, and aims to transport goods between Europe and the Arab Gulf countries.

Tishwash:  Venezuela Hires Rothschild as Adviser on Defaulted Debt Pile

 Venezuela’s government has hired Rothschild & Co. as a financial adviser to provide an overview of its foreign debt obligations, according to people familiar with the matter.

Rothschild is working to map out what the administration owes and to whom, said the people, who asked for anonymity to discuss a contract that has not been made public. Debt mapping is normally a preliminary step taken by a government before it prepares to start a restructuring.

Representatives for Paris-based Rothschild declined to comment. A press official for Venezuela’s Finance Ministry did not respond to messages seeking comment.

Venezuela owes roughly $154 billion to overseas lenders — according to an estimate from economist Francisco Rodriguez, a professor at the University of Denver — including global bonds issued by the government and state oil company, which have been in default for more than six years. It’s been accumulating interest on those bonds and court judgments for unpaid commercial loans.

Sovereign bonds trade for around 20 cents on the dollar, while defaulted notes issued by Petroleos de Venezuela SA exchange hands for around 11 cents, according to indicative pricing compiled by Bloomberg. The debt has rallied since JPMorgan Chase & Co. laid out a plan to re-weight the securities in widely followed emerging-market debt indexes back in February.

REDD Intelligence first reported Venezuela mandated Rothschild as an adviser. The hiring comes amid a recent push by President Nicolas Maduro’s administration to reengage with global markets, mulitilateral institutions and ratings firms after years of international isolation. Over the years, the president has made overtures that it was willing to work with creditors, though those talks have never progressed.

Washington doesn’t recognize Maduro, and sanctions prohibit the government from selling debt on US markets. Sanctions would need to changed before a debt restructuring could be carried out.

Relations between the two countries worsened last week as the US reimposed sanctions on the oil and gas industries, citing Maduro’s failure to live up to promises to hold a fair election later this year. Venezuela, in turn, said Washington had breached a political agreement signed last year in Doha.
