"Sometimes I work straight until 10 o'clock at night," he said. "During busy times like these, 15-hour days are not out of the question." "The key aspect of SPACs is they raise capital typically at $10 per unit and then IPO. That unit consists of common shares and warrants," he said. "The SPACs generally have two years to get a business combination completed. And if they don't, then the worst-case scenario is they give you your money back plus accrued interest."

"Even if you do redeem, you can hold on to those warrants and those warrants have significant value," he said. "So even in the instance where the deal is not attractive, you can still make a very high return because these warrants are generally worth 7% or 8% of your purchase price."
