Ron, it looks like Morgan Stanley will be right since the Peso lost 1 today against the dollar. Now it takes 7.7 pesos to buy $ 1. Since ELAMF gets paid in American dollars and pays its most of its expenses in Pesos, ELAMF's expenses are getting cheaper and cheaper. I haven't calculated the savings, but my guess it that it will be significant, especially if the Peso keeps losing value.

Word that the Fed might not lower interest rates might have contributed to today's large fall against the dollar.
