Convertible Arbitrage

Any thoughts about the convertible arb space? Aware that this is more niche, and would limit exit ops / optionally to switch to other parts of the HF space because skills don’t really translate as well from a more fundamental standpoint. I’m fairly early into my career as well so the niche nature is definitely a concern, but think it might be a good learning opportunity.

Curious as to any thoughts on headwinds / tailwinds to the strategy, as well as who / which funds do really well in the space.
