Caterpillar (CAT) Offering Possible 10.99% Return Over the Next 30 Calendar Days

Caterpillar's most recent trend suggests a bearish bias. One trading opportunity on Caterpillar is a Bear Call Spread using a strike $140.00 short call and a strike $150.00 long call offers a potential 10.99% return on risk over the next 30 calendar days.
