Business › Re: We’ll Push Dollar To N305—CBN Boasts by modath(f): 12:33pm On Mar 29, 2017
989900:
With rates harmonizing, with over $40b dollars expected from diaspora remittances, and over $10b expected from FDIs this year, plus improvement in power and refining capabilities expected towards end year, I'd say sub N300 to $1 is already on the horizon.

Throw in campaign for local agricultural products and other manufactured products and non oil exports.

Then there is that little nut: cashless policy.

cheesy cheesy cheesy

There is a difference between being hopeful (we want the best)& being an outright dreamer..... Which refinery? power? cheesy cheesy


The only sustainable means is for oil to stay above $70.. The $30b war chest CBN is fronting on came about from OPEC limiting member nations output, no magic can make Dangote refinery come onstream before 2019, Our 30bn reserve can't solve the nation's power problmes,

All of Nigeria's present day problems will be solved... Oil is the country's mainstay...Every other thing is wishful thinking.. I wish my country well & at the same time won't indulge in baseless optimism... Better to prepare for worst case scenario & be surprised than have faith that has no pointer...

Faith in God is the only CONSTANT.. Nigeria? Not total.

It is that ignorance that fuels the IPOB agenda. A typical igbo man is an " intelligent idiot". Very good in trade, very good in opportunity, very good educationally, very rich in customs, yet very individualistic. When you reason with some , very similar to these IPOB idiots who roam around these parts, you will realise you are talking to a person who is politically daft., who in 30 seconds will mention buhali, buhali , buhali so many times that you marvel if he is under a spell. He will be unable to have any real political discourse with you on any issue.

the igbos can't compete politically in the nigerian structure and thus think it easier to form a biafra wwith minority groups they can dominate.

Truth234:
I am one of those that will call him enemy of progress because of his bogus claims. One, according to the picture you posted, you can see for yourself that Trump is favoring defense over energy. That is one of the reasons Shale production surged since he became the president against general view of renewable energy becoming the order of the day, hence, the reason while global oil prices plunged below $50/barrel for the first time in 3 months this March. Trump doesn't believe in climate change and their predictions.

Two, OPEC is not struggling to stick to production quota, in fact, this is the first time they've recorded over 90 percent compliance. So all member states are devising new modus operandi to factor in renewed shale's production. Therefore, OPEC and non-OPEC member states are meeting this Sunday in Kuwait to discuss US crude stockpile and its impact on global oil glut.

Third, the issue of Russia is not different from Nigeria. Our 2017 budget was initially pegged at $44/barrel before it was increased to $45/barrel after OPEC consensus was reached on November 30th. Even if oil will plunged below that benchmark it would be around September when OPEC second production may not materialism and we would have gained enough from current increase to offset whatever little deficit we sustain in the 4th quarter of the year.
You picked Trump out of that, are you aware of the keystone pipleine?

The smart ones will increase their stock of dollars, i repeat, the smart ones will increase their stock of dollars!!!!
Funelling millions of dollars into the forex maket on a daily basis, is a stupid short term solution to a longer term problem, which i assume is just a calculated move to score cheap political points.the price of Oil, the major foreign exchange earner is still very low, with opec struggling to stick with its production quota, any sensible human will evisage a further drop in oil prices, as the world moves to cleaner energy, and opec member nations continue to ignore the organizations agreements. Though slow, a long term policy of import substitution and agressive exportation through economic diversification would ultimately lead to a precipitous decline in the dollar price, but what do we have, a government still spending billions on oil prospecting, foreign direct investment at an all time low, and one of the worst economic contraction in recent times, yet some fools still cheer this fire brigade method of pumping dollars into the market for school fee payments and tourism, things that only end up driving exports higher, further complicating balance of payment problems.
Producers who need forex the most do not get them, these people are supposed to be top priority, expecially the agricultural sector and the mining sector, agressive importation of producer goods is the top priority of any country that seeks to curb foreign exchange problems in the long run, these producers should have government acting as payment agents(in dollars) after these purchases have been verified by the cbn, while these producers pay in naira at subsidized rates, but what do we have, a government subsidizing payments for pilgrimage and other bullshït of little to no economic significance.
Call me a pessimist, that's your opinion, buth when the inevitable consequence of this stupid move raises its ugly head, there will be no one to save the naira!!!!!
90% of the people will see this & call you enemy of progress, saboteur, profiteer even if you have not a single dollar on the market for sale... Simple reading beyond brown envelope journalism will help majority of them face reality..

Better to look away & hope that better days will miracalously come out of this misadventure... BTW, Russia is keeping things "realistic" ...

HAH:
is very simple dear, all the government need to do is continue with its interventions when it stabilizes they make it 50-50 between reserve and injection.

Already hoarders are in panic they are also selling, there will soon be glut in the market, where supply exceed demand which will inturn lead to price depreciation, remember with a stable fx regime fdi will flow which I also in fx, and lastly remittances, this is another huge source of fx.

Some people talk as if the CBN just give free dollars to bank, Nigeria earns in dollars from oil sales and we don't use dollar locally so the Government need naira to run the country therefore it needs to change this dollars earned to naira so the government must always change dollars to naira. Oil is just $50 imagine what will happen if it becomes a $70.

About 70% of our dollar demand is for import of fuel rice and wheat, I with dangote refinary coming on board and and new drive in local rice and wheat production certainly dolla demand for for will drop by atleast 70% at this point there will even be excess dollars that may make the dollar to be even less than N200 but I government
Should intervene via dollar mop up so so exporters will gain that I why I proposed proposed equilibrium price of N250 per dollar
I'm only going to address 2 things & won't anymore...

1. 70$ oil is NOT GOING TO HAPPEN, OPEC has done all it can & can do NO MORE, the cartel is barely keeping together... Oil is bouncing between 47-50$ now, & likely to go lower... Shale is coming back on stream now that oil price has gone up a bit....

cos I pray this Emefiele latest translates to better living for the folks at home ,industries and the street... Korea caught my attention particularly recently but how have our financial policies ,learning therefrom, enable the citizens to do massive production and exports to bring in plenty dollars I haven't seen. Me I'm watching CBN n PMB sha. how ya doing?
Import dependent we are, & that's what we prefer to be... Initially when palm oil prices climbed through the roof, I was yelling blue murder till someone explained that industries like Unilever & co were sourcing their palm oil (margarine production) locally which was why it went up... The good part is that Forex was saved but the high cost was hard to bear... It's true devil & blue sea situation.

I don't want to be the Mo that cried wolf... I pray all ends well... Naija na our own, we nor get choice but to pray for good to happen.

With the downward trend of the dollar in the parallel market it may sooner than later be at par with the bank offered rate of 375, then people will stop going to bank for pta they will go to BDC where there is no limit of exchange and no much documentation.

Hope the CBN will reduce the official exchange rate of the naira to like 250, personally I believe the naira should hobo around 250 at this rate local producers will also gain as well as importers, the 250 is sort of equilibrium price
Are you kidding? shocked shocked shocked I am but a novice when it comes to economy ( only read & agree with the "experts" who have been proven right 75% of the time) but even I in my economic sub literacy know this is not possible with a less than $100 crude oil price!! Not in this lifetime & 7 more..

CBN is already spending like a drunk defending at this stage, 250? Hover at 250? Why do you think foreign investors ran away? Why do you think the sham "float" failed?

Budget is 305, Interbank is 315, Embassies use 340 to calculate for visa fee, even oil marketers get @ 285 (50% though still resort to BDCs cos they don't all get), so where will the 250 factor? The reserves can only take so much!!!

Even cocoa traders were racketeering.
When you say "will" come into the system, what do you mean "exactly"?

Inflows from other sources? And what FDI specifically do we have at the moment? Thought all dem portfolio investors have taken flight & aren't returning anytime soon...

What does a sub $50 crude oil price & resurgence of American shale mean to the nation's ecomomic wellbeing?

If dem "firework" experts begin to do play play with banger south of the Niger, wetin be our plan B?

You did get it wrong, the deal was never consumated , If it had, it would never have returned to you...Pls refund the individual in question in FULL, it wasn't his fault the coins didn't confirm & bear in mind that he lost money as well (his resale spread/gain) ...
