6-2-2021 Intel Guru BobTheTaxMan Taxes are always going to be there. There's no way around it period. 47% taxes on windfall gains...let me tell you, that number is changing. It's going to get higher particularly into the new current administration because you can expect some major tax reforms...I want you to understand...where our taxes are going under this current administration...not saying condemnation against them...pendulum swings both ways. At the moment it's swinging this way...with these anticipated changes for the future you really need to take the time to re-look at what your plan was... [NOTE: At the appropriate time consult your tax professional about your investment and tax liability.]
6-2-2021 Intel Guru Bruce [via WiserNow] ...the thinking is we...are looking really good and the wording I was given from a bank manager today was “Be ready for any moment now” Be ready...I think we are in good shape for something to occur with notifications over the next couple of days...The rates are very good...
6-2-2021 Newshound Guru Pimpy They can fuss all they want about the rate. I don't think their rate can stay the same for what they say, 3 to 5 years. It's not going to stay that long...if...they keep having a surplus and oil prices continue to rise I don't think it's going to take that long for them to really start to recover. The money is being used for all the right purposes at the moment...
6-2-2021 Intel Guru Footforward I'm getting more reports of banks telling people they aren't selling dong anymore...why is that happening now? ...it's clear something is up in the US, and I've been told by more then one person that I trust that currency flow out of Vietnam at this moment is being restricted. ...the pattern in Vietnam has changed. When patterns change, there is a reason...
6-2-2021 Intel Guru Holly I am still asked to be quiet. Things are happening and we are in the window for this week. All the news I am hearing is very good and positive. We are there, let’s let it unfold.
6-2-2021 Newshound Guru Jeff Article: "Al-Kazemi: Iraq is on the path to economic reform" They're on the path for economic reform but they're not able to implement economic reform...Why can't they bring the reforms forward? What are they waiting on? What do they need? Again, the reforms themselves are waiting on the rate change.
6-2-2021 Intel Guru MarkZ [via PDK] We are hearing that yesterday they attempted to launch the new banking system …We were told that the sheer number of transaction that had been waiting on it over loaded it…and that they are going to attempt again today in the next couple of hours…i hope this is accurate… We have seen some rates on screens for the dinar again…starting to show on bank screens …I find that interesting.
6-2-2021 Intel Guru Frank26 Dubai 1? Dubai 2? Dubai 3? Are you serious? Where do you get this kind of stuff? ...You gotta be careful. All this tier one and tier two and three tiers and 'come to me and only - I got 800 numbers' and the latest thing I'm hearing is there's a Dubai 1? That's so stu__ [stupid?] Be careful who 'you have lunch with'.
6-2-2021 Newshound Guru Pimpy Rumors...you guys need to be careful...yes I heard all the rumors. I heard about the rate change. It's not true. No rate changes are taking place...we know there's a lot of talk about the rate change. There's a group of people saying that this [devaluation] should not have been done...it was done illegally and there's a lot of talk about it being fixed. I do think it's going to be fixed. I do think it's going to change. I really do. But not anytime in the immediate future. But I do think it's going to happen sometime this year. It just depends on what's going on with these protesters and the civil unrest...
