With all the news of the currency issues around pricing and demand for the dollar, I thought I'd dissect the issue. I believe this will tie in nicely with BondLady's last two chats along with the news of counterfeiting and the current visit by the US to Iraq. There is a ton of escalation, urgency and attention to this current currency issue.

This substantial issue at hand regarding the price of the dollar versus the dinar can easily be understated.

The issue of the increasing rate and the high demand for the supply cannot be fixed with a simple 4 pip change in the rate like what happened in January of 2012....that was to align inflation which brought no benefit to the people of iraq.

This dialogue exchange between Shredd - dogsvova and Bye The Sea members was in reference to a previous chat -  Here is the LINK to that chat

[Shredd] Greetings everyone at BLC. I was researching the two camps of a free float versus a managed float and had some thoughts around this, combined with some interesting material I found. A study out of MIT simply stated what determines exchange rates….supply and demand for foreign exchange. In other words, the supply source comes from foreign demand for domestic supply of goods and assets. http://web.mit.edu/14.02/www/krugman/1026LEC.pdf


dogsnova:  Outstanding explanation.. Shred I do have a question for ya..

Would this scenario be a hybrid type approach? The CBI's posted market price floating against the USD while the CBI's posted exchange rate is locked @ 1166? I believe that's what's happening now.

[tlm724] hey everyone want to talk about traiffs   no, well tough we're gonna anyway  first lets see what tariifs are

[tlm724] A tariff is a tax on an imported good. Therefore for each unit of a good that is imported into a country the tariff increases the price of that good by however much the tariff is.

[therealbubbie] tlm724 yeah sure what the heck !!

Tariffs are usually implemented when the world price of a good is lower than the domestic price of a good. A tariff thus is a form of protection from foreign competition that can produce that good at a cheaper price. The jobs of that industry are thus protected by the tariff, as opposed to the jobs being eliminated by foreign
competition.
