TNT CONFERENCE CALL WEDNESDAY 6/7/17 DCNY CALL RECAP:
Good afternoon TNT Superfantastic Family. Today is Wednesday hump day. There is no new information today so we will just review what you already know what has been put out there. Nothing brand new has come to me by the way of important information. What has happened since Monday? We did have Tuesday Info which I sent out to you, and we can review that info. On Tuesday on Iraqi TV, PM Abadi said Mosul has returned to normal life. Citizens are back on the streets and back in their homes. The new Iraq maps have shown nothing has changed, but certain bits of info tell us otherwise. Most of you are receiving what I call the public information except what we share from you from the information providers. We had the CBI representative was interviewed saying the next step includes the lower denoms which is good to hear. Iraq military has already annouced full control of the borders, and they are in the hands of Iraq. Some of the public news is trailing and may even be a little contradictory for whatever reason that may be. One of the interesting things was Jubouri was on Iraqi TV saying how they can sustain a rate of 1.3 on IQD based on the oil richness. What would that equate tooin USD? That is the question. If it were to go to 1.3 IQD instead of the 1180 program rate. Also reporting that the Kurds have no disputes. Plus a number of citizens were told that they will be paid $2000 each. The information didn't say if it is 2000 dinar or dollars. More than likely 2000 dinar. Several articles are out on that already. Let see what the members on the board have to say. Q and A: Q: Have you received an updated from the bank providing guidance and update with that banks dinar exchange procedure? Ray: No update on that yet. Q: Are the Iraq government going to start paying their citizens a pension check based on oil profits like it is done for the citizens of Kuwait? Ray: Yes Q: What is the political process for a currency to revalue? Ray: Laws passed, declarations etc...We know it is about to pop because certain things have already happened Q: My understanding is we go ahead of the public as the internet group. Is that your understanding? Ray: Yes it is. Callers: 404 Catnip: I noticed on the chat room the clock was ticking there. I noticed the clock isn't ticking there. Is there a reason? Ray: I just didn't want it ticking through the whole call, since it may be distracting to people. I would say the clock is ticking, since look where we are with information and look whats coming out of Iraq. Catnip: I want you to say the clock has stopped. Ray: I don't know and we have this June 10th date that some are fixated on, and June 12 has already been announced as a celebration for the soldiers. What are the celebrating? Like we don't know already. We are on pins and needles and which day will they let this go knowing it is inevitable? The clock is ticking in that regard, but don't know if it is ticking for today, Thursday or Friday. Catnip: We have been talking about the fact that there needs to be an announcement knowing weeks ago what you shared with us that Mosul was taken yet we see in the Iraqi newspapers neighborhood by neighborhood and by district all the fighting that is going on.. This was said today in and the headline said we will announce the liberation of western Mosul within 2 days and we will occupy the Iraq Syrian border. I know we are looking for an announcement and could this be the preannouncement? It tells us they are announcing the liberation of June 9th going into the 10th which segways into eveything you have told us. Ray: Look at that info the Syrian border and we already have info the full control by Iraq and that is occupying the border. This seems to be a play on words and they have to do it that way. They are saying Everything is back to normal but thats not normal. That is an announcement for me. Catnip: we are all so ready for this and can't thank you enough. Caller: 340 Virgin Island We are down to the wire. Do you see any possiblity that the ZIM could go after the Dinar? Ray: That is possible, and I hope they do something like that. Just let the Dinar go ahead of everyone else, and then the others could go one by one. Caller: I know of someone paying 1 billion for a quad. Ray: If you know that, I will need to talk to you. Give me a call. Caller: Tish: Please ask 340 to define a Quad. Remember 404 in that article it states that Abadi has to make the announcement, and it states we are just waiting for orders from Prime Minister and Commander in Chief. It is further proof that everything is done, and we are just waiting for what we don't know Tick Tick Tick. Ray: I know what a quad is. Ray: We know it is already done and just waiting for the proclamation. Ray's Wrapup: This is hump day. Look at all that has happened already and what is yet to happen.We have 3 dates we are looking at with no 100% deadlock on any of them. First we are looking at the 10th since that is the date when ISIS first kicked in and possibly could be the anniversary of ISIS being out. Plus making it official on that date. The we have the 12th, and we know that is the date of celebration planned for the soldiers? What are we celebrating? Lets wait and see what the celebration is all about knowing what it will be and where this is heading. If all else fails, some of us still have the 30th of June that we at steadfastly attached to. As long as we get it over in June, I am fine. Whether it is the 10th, 12th, or 30th, lets knock it out of the park, so we can start doing something in July. So we await. Any new information that comes to us, I will send out a text message or tweet to update you. If it warrants a telephoen call, the we will reconvene back on the line and give info to you in a live format. One way or another, we are just patiently waiting. Enjoy you Wednesday! I Believe! How about you? It is already done! Rayren98

6-7-2017 Intel Gurus Frank26 & Delta All of the sudden they started doing 2 auctions on the same day – accumulating 1, 2 and sometimes 3 within a week. Piggybacking these auctions was unusual. Why the urgency with the auctions? They cannot change the rate in the middle of a business day. So if you take a look at the auction they did on Monday (that means they have nothing to do on Tuesday). Tuesday, they have no auction. Interesting...that means they could pull the trigger on a Tuesday. This is really significant to us – something is going on...and there is a reason why they are doing it. Based on the demands of the World Bank, the comments from the economists to ACTIVATE – it doesn’t become any more clear than that.
6-7-2017 Newshound/Intel Guru BGG Article: "IMF REACHES AGREEMENT ON STAND-BY ARRANGEMENT WITH IRAQ" Neither this nor the UN potentially releasing funds to Iraq at the end of June are any kind of "date" indicator.

6-7-2017 Intel Guru Bruce Iraq has already announced that this Saturday, the 10th is the Liberation Day. What are they talking about liberating from? I think that is a direct liberation and take back of Mosul and a number of different announcements around that day next Saturday, June 10th. What about the 12th? Monday is called Celebration Day in Iraq. What would they be celebrating? The liberation of Mosul, the return of a Sovereign Republic, a return of a currency that is revalued and internationally traded again, and celebrate the new rate that would be in their budget that would be put in their Gazette, etc. That is what the schedule is going to show Saturday and celebration on Monday. Does that mean we have to wait until Monday? Right now I going to say I don’t believe so based on the other Intel I am getting. Even if it was the case that would be the longest we would need to wait. I think the plan is to release this soon...be excited for the possibility of this happening hopefully between now and the weekend. [post 2 of 2]
6-7-2017 Intel Guru Bruce Remember we talked about the lower denoms of the dinar that were being placed in the ATM machines and ready to go? Our understanding is they are still in there ready to go, but have not been put out yet. They have not yet utilized those lower value notes of the dinar. They were supposed to be put out today [Tuesday]. They were supposed to be, but weren’t. Their intention was to make their rate change known today and the lower denoms would be needed because the rates would have gone dramatically higher... We have heard the rates in Iraq are in a very strong situation and will be stronger. People who are getting paid on their cards or retirement pay it is going up substantially like 134%. I think due to the in-country change of the dinar rate. Without able to prove that exactly, I just can tell you that everything is complete regarding what is happening in Iraq.
