Trading “Project Zimbabwe…”

At the depths of the COVID crash, I began writing extensively about the equity market ramifications of unlimited fiscal and monetary stimulus. To start with, it was obvious that the equity markets would blast higher—as a result I strapped on as much exposure as I could stomach while remaining a responsible fiduciary.

Dear Friends, Over the years, I have frequently traded Event-Driven situations, dozens of which I have profitably profiled on this site. As value investing has stopped “working,” I have spent an increasing amount of my time focused on these situations, especially as the influx of retail day-traders and the growth of passive investing has led these situations to work surprisingly well.

On Monday morning, I posted an article about the extreme mispricing of Nikola Motor’s warrants (NKLAW – USA). While there were ways to arb this trade in an almost risk-free manner, I went into them naked as the spread was so damn wide. Since that time, the warrants have risen by roughly 50% (hitting a high of $41 vs roughly $28 when I posted). Read More
