Hi everyone,
I’ve recently started studying special situations investing (specifically corporate workouts like liquidations and merger arbitrage). I understand the basic math behind calculating the spread and annualized returns, but my biggest hurdle right now is sourcing high-quality ideas before the spread disappears.
**My question for experienced members:**
Beyond just checking deal lists, do you have a specific daily/weekly routine for spotting these early? Are there specific RSS feeds, Twitter accounts, or filings (like 8-Ks) that you prioritize scanning to find these "off the radar" liquidations or smaller mergers?
I'm not looking for stock picks, just advice on how to build a better "search process" so I can find them myself.
Thanks for your time.
