It might be more work than its worth, but one could make a list of potential arbirtrage targets based on the premium/discout... the wider the spread, the more obvious the target. Then, wait for a big volume surge, and take a long position in the CEF. To make sure, you could check the short interest in the major holdings. If there's unusual short or put activity, that would be the tipoff. You could verify that by checking the major shareholders, and looking for a new HF that wasn't there previously.

What do you think?


What do I think? I think you are very sharp with your analysis and broad-market knowledge. With that said, I'd have to imagine that it would take you only 1 try to guess why I know so much about that specific security, during that specific time period ;-)
