our group doesn't look that it will be coming together until april 24th. i think at that time or closer to that time, we could reconvene and make a recommendation to this commission. i think what at some point we want to get a recommendation around is just the final steps of the process, how many candidates that this body would ultimately see, at which point we would pass it on to the commission, i think that's the only issue we need to finally get support from this commission on, but i think we need to meet again before we can give a final recommendation on the approach that we plan to take because we also need to have a meeting where we have a full active sub commission, you know, sub-committee to make that recommendation to forward to you all. >> agreed. >> commissioner antonini. >> that's why i was talking about the 18th as a possible date, it would predate our meeting of the 24th, however, as envisioned, we might be making some decisions as to the number of candidates and selecting among those that were brought before us at that meeting if i understan

i bought the april 2725 put shread for 45 cents. i bought one of the april 27 puts for 70 cents. i sold an april 25 put against it for 25 cents. my max risk is 45 cents. i can make up to $1.55 between 26.55 and 25. below that, that's my max payout. i can only lose that 45 cents. this is a designed risk that implied volatility is relatively cheap in the name. despite the movement, i'm selling that lower strike put. i don't think we are going to get an apocalyptic move. >> are the options cheaper? >> yes. >> that's one reason you are doing this. >> that's a really good point. we have seen more dispersion in the markets. stocks have been going in different directions. what ends up to etfs is that mutes how much they move around. when fear enters, they start to track together. the volatility of an etf or an index will increase. that's what happens when they start to decline. it is absolutely the case that right now, we're looking at a situation where we haven't seen indices. >> we are on the cusp, of -- >> you are making a play obviously on a decrease. you are also making a play on t
