"$TOE.AX : Updated Current Value = US$10.44 x XXXX currency conversion x XXXXX scrip = AUD$0.57. Current price $XXXX. The spread has now significantly narrowed. Keep in mind you have both systemic market risk and currency risk as well as the usual deal risks so this is a less well-defined arbitrage and so you want a higher margin of safety. A higher margin than is currently on offer in my view"

Any commodity is a risk factor given they are highly cyclical. More than once I've thought it can't possibly go lower and it goes lower. I got burnt with IGO for example. The exception is oil which effectively has a lower limit of around $XX per barrel due to the OPEC cartel. I notice PetroChina continues to be significantly undervalued relative to its peers around the world. It was a"

"$MYX.AX : Analysis of Judgement I've just spent the last X hours reading the comprehensive judgement of XXX paragraphs. X. The Supreme Court of NSW is amazing in managing to deliver a judgement in a single day. X. The judgement is remarkably similar to the lucid analysis of both Fabreres @fabreres and Luke Cummings of Harvest Lane. I put Luke's article below for reference because so many of the points that he made are reflected in the judgement. X. The judgement is devastating for Cosette in terms of the credibility of their witnesses. While an appeal to the NSWCA may be inevitable this is"

"Well spotted. I like the platform on CommSec just like you but I don't trade stocks on it. It is useful to look at announcements because selfwealth does not give you real time. I used to trade with it all the time before my sizing increased the commissions. For a buy and hold person it's fine which is probably why it's so popular. I do have an options account with CommSec which I occasionally use although being the only person on the planet that shorted Afterpay made me pause on that one. But I do wonder if Interactive Brokers has a better options facility with better spreads but I haven't"

"$TOE.AX : Progress Arbitrage I mentioned this arbitrage two days ago. It's been going well since. Current Value = US$10.82 x XXXX currency conversion x XXXXX scrip = AUD$0.60. Still undervalued significantly BUT you have both market and currency risk. I have only a modest allocation for that reason and because I prefer cash offers. It's worth pointing out that the current market is unusual in the usually you go long the acquired and short the acquirer to remove systemic market risk from the arbitrage. But in the current hot market excess returns are being found by going along both acquirer"

"$MYX.AX : Revised Entry A few people have contacted me as to whether there is anything still left in this arbitrage. I think it depends on the level of today's recovery. The deal has returned to slightly more risky than a conventional arbitrage and you can set your own level as to what you think the relative risks to completion are now. However I would suggest anything under $XXXX gives sufficient room for a negotiated settlement and accounts for the small risks of appeal and FIRB. I am already at my maximum allocation so in good conscience can't increase my holdings. This is not financial"
