going to look out to april and buy the april 110, 105 put spread. when the stock as 116.5, i paid a buck for it. i bought one of the april 110 puts for $2.45. i sold at 85 cents against it. so it cost me about $1. i'm sorry i have the wrong prices there. it cost me a $1. that's my max risk. so between 110 and 109, i can lose up to $1. between 109 and 105, i make up to four. then below i make the full four. i like the risk there. >> mike khouw, i'm guessing you would agree with dan in betting bearishly on caterpillar. do you like the structure of this trade? >> i like it. he's getting long premium to make a bearish bet. they are reporting all-time highs and earnings. if you look over the course of the last ten years, this is company that has -- it's been cyclical. at the money options are cheap in cat but there's a lot of skew. what do i mean by that? the out on the money puts tend to be more expensive because of the risk. i like the direction of the trade. i like the direction he's betting in. >> all-time high earnings and fresh 52 week high. >> tha

i want to look out to april, the q 1 earnings event here. if you have this stock, i'm thinking about taking some profits and getting long exposure with risk. i wanted to buy the april 120, 130, 140 call butterfly. i'll tell you what i'm doing here. with the stock around 115 you can buy one of the april 120 calls for about $4. you would sell two of the april 130 calls for a total of $2.60. that's $1.30 each. then the higher april calls for about 40 cents. that costs you $1.80. that is your max risk there. then you can make up to 8:20 and then your payoff trails between $1.30 and $1.38. your max risk is $1.80. that's below and above 140. it's a pretty wide range to make good money with defined risk over that profit. >> do you like the fundamentals of this trade? do you like the trade structure? two separate questions. >> i like the fundamentals. we all thought that goldman sachs was going to have trouble because of the ban on prop trading. they showed it's great. that's fundamentally. technically i like the trade because it makes sense. dan's

you would sell two of the april 130 calls for a total of $2.60. then the higher april calls for about 40 cents. that costs you $1.80. that is your mask risk there. then your payoff trails between $1.30 and $1.38. that's below and above 140. it's a pretty wide range to make good money with defined risk over that profit. >> do you like the fundamentals of this trade? do you like the trade structure? >> i like the fundamentals. we all thought that goldman sachs was going to have trouble because of the ban on prop trading. they showed it's great. i like the trade because it makes sense. dan's not risking a lot of money. another way to look at it potentially, maybe understand it better is look at it like this. you're selling a 130, 140 call spread. that's how we teach them to look at butterflies. because there are a bunch of legs, watch the execution. >> you hit it when you said you're threading the needle here. one thing about butterflies, and dan has used these effectively in the past. this is longer dated. the longer dated they are, the less likely

picture, we get to our two year budget, which will come to you along with the operating budget in april. in terms of sources, this is where you will see the potential impact from the activity happening right now in washington, d.c., on us. we are fairly heavily reliant on federal formula funds, for example, for much of our transit capital improvements. if that were to significantly change, some of those proposals seem to be leaning towards the back, moving forward to maintain what we have. you will see that there are a number of other local state and funding sources for the proposed city obligation bond. passed by the voters this past november, legislating a small portion of which, coming to the mta, the mta has not generally been a significant center -- player in the geobond table. the mta has been seen as independent in its need to generate its own capital improvement money. this idea actually came from the budget balancing panel. that we should consider the voters at large as a possible avenue for capital revenue for program where we have a clear investment that we can articulate in

3 and then on april 17. the timing is good to give an early glimpse and try to stimulate some of that robust conversation. i do have a power point i will walk through and i look forward to any questions a d a v have. i am going to first talk about the operating budget on the expenditure and revenue side and then talk about the capital budget. we've brought this to the mta board in a preliminary fashion and i am bringing to you what i have shared with them as well. on the revenue side, here is what the picture looks like in terms of baseline. the main message here is that if you look at the funding overall, we are about a quarter of general fund, a quarter of general affairs, one-third from parking, and the rest from grants and at other miscellany and we don't expect that to change. we are about 800 million on the revenue side. this is more or less just continuing afford what we have now. changes through indexing -- i have a slide of later that will show that. supervisor elsbernd: what is the formula that pro
