Expert: Dealing In The Dollar Remains And Speculation In Prices Is Temporary
Time: 06/11/2024 Read: 637 times {Economic: Al-Furat News} The economic expert, Bassem Jamil Antoine, considered the issue of price speculation “temporary,” while he believes that dealing in the dollar will remain in Iraq.
Antoine told {Al-Furat News} that: “The dollar will not be cut off from the local markets because the rate of entry of the dollar into Iraq daily is no less than 3 million from the sale of oil.”
He added, “Speculation in prices is temporary and short-lived because the government was able to maintain prices through the regularity of the food basket, and there is not much demand for the dollar. The pumping continues, demands are met, and speculation operations have been controlled.”
Antoine pointed out, “It is possible that there will be a slight increase during the Eid al-Adha period; unless the banks continue to take their share of it and pump it to the markets, we will be able to control it in general.”
Today, Tuesday, selling prices in the field of banking in the local markets in Baghdad reached 148,750 Iraqi dinars for 100 dollars, while purchasing prices reached 146,750 dinars for 100 dollars. LINK
