First time for arbitrage. New bond too. RBAK.

I bought the bond today (I paid up -42.25). I found the stock to short, but did not get an up-tick late in the day. Hope to complete the short tomorrow.

The company announced a recap last week. The bond holders will own 95% of the company. There is a HUGE mis-match of valuation in the stock versus the bond. This should be easy money. But usually if it is too good to be true - I'm missing something. TWT.
