Kaseyko1:
If I’m not mistaken, I believe the Afghanistan’s currency was to be included with the currencies that are revaluing; if so, looks like their currency may be removed from the basket of other currencies. Just read the following news article: “The International Monetary Fund announced that Afghanistan will not be able to access the Fund’s resources, against the backdrop of the uncertainty surrounding the legitimacy of the authority in it after the Taliban took control of the capital, Kabul.”
With all the progress that’s been made by Iraq & how they’ve been doing a lot of talking, I’m thinking this issue may speed things up a little bit for us with the RV, though.
Yada:
Kasey, Im of the mind they originally were going to release it, internationally, on the 1st but due to processing, it was extended due to the bond sales to increase their reserves 1st week of August. Believe their debt level was reduces as their reserve level increased
Kaseyko:
In agreement with you; the Afghanistan issue seems to be having a slight impact for us, but not necessarily in a bad way, just want to be clear on that point; I’ve been reading info on the funds received by the Taliban so I’m sure this RV release is on the minds of those involved with the implementation of the RV.
Bushog:
I don’t see an RV for awhile with the Failure in Afghanistan
Yada:
Iraq and Afghanistan are two different issues,, the progress Iraqs made is showing now for the release. Afghanistan is reason enough to do it so they don’t end up like them.
Doc:
I wonder if things are on hold or are things still moving toward end of month with no roadblocks. Are banks anticipating or have they retreated?
Kaseyko1:
Doc, from what I’ve been reading, I would venture to say by the end of the month, if not sooner.
Yada:
Doc, as I expressed to Kasey, things are full speed ahead with an expected end. The Supreme Court case has no effect on the release of the currency. Its am argument on procedures to address other issues and the Baghdad Summit is set to go in order to parade their accomplishments for investors and surely, they will not be boasting of progress with a program rate.
