Early February 2010 Iraqi Dinar update… where is that dang RV?!
Hey friends, I know I’ve been a little distant lately – very few posts, no newsletter to speak of, and if you have been on the DinarVets forum… you probably know why. I’ve been busy updating the VIP members with news from my contact at CBI. I’m hearing some good stuff, but no verifiable dates or rates for an official RV or rate change for the Iraqi Dinar.
Since I can’t verify much on that front, let’s do a little speculating. One article of interest that doesn’t seem to be getting much attention is this one:
Iraq’s Prime Minister unhappy about competition. (link)
If you’ve kept up with the election news, you’ll be pretty well aware of the corruption and the almost humorous politics in Iraq. Up till now, I would have called Maliki a shoe-in for the March 7 elections, but a recent decision by parliament to allow hundreds of previously banned candidates to run should make things interesting. We all saw how Obama took the lead in our 2008 elections by giving the impression that he’d pay rent for the unfortunates who couldn’t afford it… and give free health care to those who couldn’t afford it… and pull the troops out… lol! Sorry, I got off on a tangent there. But, to bring my tangent full circle, let me present an idea.
All it would take for a candidate to sweep Maliki right out of his office is one statement: “People of Iraq, elect me and I will revalue the currency to it’s former value!!!!”
I’m not saying I have information that points to that happening… I’m just speculating. And insinuating. Ok, heck, I’ll admit it – I’m even pumping up the potential iraqi Presidential candidates.
If they didn’t think of it yet, I’m happy to give them a few pointers that might spur on a change in the rate of the Iraqi Dinar.
More to come, I’m pressed for time. Don’t think I’ve forgotten about you! The DinarSpeculation.com train slows slightly at times, but it always resumes chugging along!
Best regards,
