Dear Diary,
I just sold out the PHLY arbitrage for a 5% gain. This represents a 32.59% annualized gain over a 56 day holding period (9-30-08 thru 11-25-08). The expected closing price is $61.50 on December 1, 2008, so I went ahead a sold out at $61.21 a share today (6 days early) to get the cash ready for another deal today or tomorrow.
