Agree with Speculatius. A disconnect like that happens many times. I've never had much success playing these, and so I avoid looking at that as a specfic investment opportunity. Had I made these a relative trade that might might have helped me and changed my opinion, but I don't like to short, so I didn't do that.

Can't remember but maybe it was that the spread stayed longer than my patience; or the spread closed but at a lower level for both stocks so it didn't work out for me; or something else. Some people do well with these -- maybe because they or someone else comes in with big money to force management or the market to close the gap.
