Currency traders in the dollar market of Sulaymaniyah said that $100 was trading at 154,750 dinars during Tuesday’s session. Furthermore, at the beginning of the week, the same amount of dollars was sold for around 152,700 dinars, showing a noticeable shift.
Additionally, they explained that rumors in the market contributed to the recent movement. They also said there are unconfirmed reports suggesting that the United States may stop sending dollars to Iraq. Although this information has not been officially verified, it has increased public concern. As a result, demand for the U.S. dollar has risen, pushing its value higher against the dinar.
The traders also provided updates on other currencies in the local exchange market. Therefore, they stated that $100 is currently equal to about 11.9 million Iranian tomans in cash transactions. Additionally, 1 million Syrian pounds is valued at approximately 115,000 Iraqi dinars, which is close to $75. He also noted that $100 is equivalent to around 4,480 Turkish lira.
Currency traders expect continued fluctuations in the coming days as uncertainty remains in regional and international markets. Therefore, they warn that rumors and political developments can quickly influence exchange rates, especially in markets that rely heavily on the U.S. dollar. As a result, both traders and consumers are closely monitoring price changes to adjust their transactions accordingly.
