kind arbitrage

Read a random definition: undisclosed agency

A quick definition of kind arbitrage:

Kind arbitrage is when someone buys a security that can be exchanged or converted to another security within a reasonable time, while at the same time selling the second security. This is done to make a profit from the price difference between the two securities. It is also called convertible arbitrage.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Kind arbitrage is a type of arbitrage where a security is purchased that can be exchanged or converted to a second security within a reasonable time, with a simultaneous sale of the second security.

Example: An investor purchases a convertible bond that can be exchanged for common stock within a year. At the same time, the investor sells short the common stock of the same company. If the price of the common stock goes down, the investor can profit from the difference in price by exchanging the convertible bond for the common stock and selling it at a higher price.

This example illustrates how kind arbitrage involves taking advantage of price differences between two securities that are related to each other. In this case, the convertible bond and the common stock of the same company. By purchasing the convertible bond and selling short the common stock, the investor can profit from any price differences between the two securities.

How long can I delay sending my fall grades if they hurt my GPA? I’m still waiting on decisions and ideally I’m hoping they decide BEFORE seeing my new grades
TGM
18:27
dropped my GPA below median for a couple of schools I’m applying to, when I was above median before
Dkk
18:32
@TGM: Not long enough to get another transcript to recover.
Dkk
18:33
Honestly you could just wait until someone actually asks for your fall grades. Who knows.
Dkk
18:34
@wigwav: It looks like if below medians it will not help but If applying in November it seems you are still middle of the cycle.
18:34
@wigwav: nah
TGM
18:34
like am I expected to send it unprompted or can I wait until a school requested it
Dkk
18:35
@TGM: Expected to send it unprompted but you can wait and see.
18:36
Is your LSAT also below median?
TGM
18:37
It’s above median, but I’m applying T6 with unimpressive softs, so even with a good LSAT it’s tough
texaslawhopefully
18:38

texaslawhopefully
18:38

TGM
18:39
@texaslawhopefully: alas, haven’t even gotten an interview (applied around thanksgiving)

TGM
18:40

TGM
18:41
not sure if I should email them to say that, or just hold off on sending it and not give an excuse
18:41
