You'll learn how these shell companies work, what traps to avoid, and how redemption rates, lawsuits, and flawed deal structures continue to wreck investors. We also examine past blowups and extract brutal lessons for traders, target companies, and underwriters. If you’re thinking of chasing the next SPAC pop, listen to this first.
