D, I like the idea of using options to hedge a position.
Question did you get any IR info as to possible collars? I have been burnt on press release's which were less than forthcoming, tyc for example. I will request further info from IR. No hurry,because these deals often take unexpected turns and spread sometimes widens. Also the closer to merger date you can get the better the annualized return. How to guess the best entry point is art I have not been able to quantify. Look at daily prices of gmst and tvgia to see how irrational the spread divergence can be.
