Q: I've been following Eric Nuttall for quite a while, as he seems like the go to guy for Energy Stocks. His Fund is up 38% as of May/31. I'm thinking of buying into his Fund SPR 006 (A), but in addition to the Mer of 2.5%, there is also a Performance Fee of 10% of excess over S&P/TSX Capped Energy Total return Index. This is confusing!

Would you kindly explain exactly what would be my Total Fees would be on an investment of $1,000?

Many Thanks!

Q: Priceline is getting murdered today (down over 11%), because of their exposure to Europe - both in terms of revenues and currency exchange - which are assumed to be negatively impacted by the BREXIT vote. At the same time, it is on a growth path, its PE is really not that high for such a solid company, and I can't help but wonder if the sell-off today is overdone. Do you think this is a good entry point into PCLN?

Cross Currency Swap On November 23, 2015, the Company entered into a cross currency swap agreement (the Currency Swap) in order to minimize the Companys exposure to exchange rate fluctuations between the Great British Pound (GBP) and the US Dollar (USD) as cash generated from the Companys operations is largely in GBP while principal and interest payments on the Companys Term Facility is in USD. Under the Currency Swap, 90% of the Companys USD Term Facilitys interest and principal payments will be swapped into GBP. Intertain will pay a fixed 7.81% interest in place of floating USD interest payments of Libor plus 6.5% (Libor floor of 1%). The interest and principal payments will be made at a GBP/USD FX rate of 1.5135 on USD notional amount of $293,962,500. The Currency Swap terminates on March 31, 2017.
