Bits and Pieces in Dinarland Friday Afternoon 1-29-16

TNT:

Iko Ward:  We've got a $2 spread now between WTI and Brent. This is how we used to ride. Galveston is looking normal from a shipping standpoint, but Iran is still blacked out to us little guys. Everyone is still ready ready, I'm talking countries, international business, banks, oil...you name it

SoCal :   New York City’s ports, the busiest on the East Coast, ground to halt​ after an “apparent labor walk off,” http://ift.tt/1P2mrM0; shut-down-after-apparent-labor-walk-off

Tank :   Zap said on Tuesday their funds would be available, Bruce said Friday night for "a humanitarian group we would all know." Zap also said funds had been released

Mangelo:  if Iran is supposed to go and they are saying so is Iraq on the 31 st then I am hoping for some kind of craziness tomorrow after 4 pm!!!
....
Yada:  Mangelo. Every thing is bonded  on Iraq. Iraq goes first…. But the rv of the dinar gives the other countries their new values…. Rv first everything else afterwards

Onetyme:  If the swift codes go live On Feb 1. I can't see iran not negotiating a rate at least equal to Saudi Arabia. IMO

RVAlready:  Iran made an agreement with Iraq that they would wait for Iraq. That's why Abadi is pulling out all the stops to get ready. Iran is being nice, but it probably won't wait forever. At the rate the PTB is destroying the world economy, I don't think anyone can wait too much longer. The situation is dire.

Maggiemoo:  Iran probably won't be nice forever either,,,just to add to your statement !

RVAlready:  I think this whole thing will go very soon. The PTB have sucked the world dry…. The fact that Iraq sold 100 billion worth of property to get ready speaks loudly to me.
Tank :  It could mean today, there's no rules as far as I know. They might wait for markets to close. I've heard they had it planned for 3:00 on different days in times past

Star339:  Iko Ward ….. It appears it will all happen at once ...The RV, the crash, the entry of Iran and Iraq onto the world stage, China going asset backed...and by all at once I mean within days!!

Mangelo:  if they are saying that in Southeast Asia exchanges are going on.... we just have to wait till i comes to us.

DustyS:  I don't remember anyone saying that there were exchanges in Singapore --just that they were seeing it on bank screens at 3.71--correct me if I'm wrong please :)

SaBickford:  Dusty Iko Ward wroteGuys, forget the Singapore intel. It didn't happen. May have even been a sting for all we know.

Dinar Updates:

wmawhite    As told to us by the IMF...Iraq will/expected to join the economy market during the 1st half of 2016...at that time the IQD will be international...everything we are seeing is in response to those expectations.  Otherwise, why do them...

They could just do nothing and stay with the USD and stay poor forever. Every detail that is in the works for this to happen was outlined in the Technical Letter of Agreement/MoU...

IMO there are no other required laws for Iraq to join the markets...we can only believe that the value will change because as it enters the market it will have a "rate".  And they will never survive at 1182.

Q: [Not even at 1:1.] 

Wmawhite: I can agree with...that.

KTFA:

The Shipping News Says the World Economy Is Toast

72 Jan 28, 2016 1:00 AM EST Updated Jan 29, 2016 6:01 AM EST
By Mark Gilbert

In October 2008, as the repercussions of the financial crisis were starting to ripple through the global economy, I noticed a press release from Swedish truckmaker Volvo saying that its European order book had fallen by more than 99 percent between the third quarters of 2007 and 2008 -- to just 155 from 41,970.

 That prompted me to study various other real-world activity measures ranging from shipping to air freight, and to conclude that "the news is all bad and getting worse, fast." The same exercise today, I'm afraid to say, leads me to a similar conclusion about the growth outlook.

Here's a chart showing what's happening to the cost of shipping containers from China's ports, one for the country and one for Shanghai. Both indexes are compiled by the Shanghai Shipping Exchange and cover shipments to the rest of the world including Europe, the U.S. and Africa; the broader China index is down more than 40 percent from its peak in mid-2012:

The traditional global shipping measure is called the Baltic Dry Index. Shipping purists (who rival gold bugs in their dedication to minutiae) will tell you it mostly reflects how many
vessels are afloat on the world's oceans; a glut of shipbuilding means more boats available, which drives down the cost of shipping bulk raw materials such as iron ore, steel and coal.

But given the fragile state of the global economy, it's hard to shake the feeling that the index has been trying to tell us something important about global demand in recent years:

There's a scene in the film adaptation of Annie Proulx's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel "The Shipping News": An old newshound explains to newbie journalist Kevin Spacey how dark clouds on the horizon justify the hyperbolic headline "Imminent Storm Threatens Village."

"But what if no storm comes?" Spacey asks. The veteran replies with a second-day headline: "Village Spared From Deadly Storm." Unfortunately, having survived the storm

fanned by subprime mortgages and the credit crisis, the clouds are gathering again over the global village we live in; they are getting darker every day.

(Corrects description of shipping price indexes in second paragraph, and time reference in seventh paragraph to three years.)
