ABT/ABBV—Using the when-issued shares described in the previous post, investors can go long or short either of the successor companies and can own both companies in any desired proportion.

I probably want to own more ABT than ABBV in dollar terms, but I haven't decided yet on an optimal ratio.

Comments welcome.
