julescruis A is irrelevant here.
chamad and so is C. Risk averse do not prefer high risk
hannovanwyk could A not be true? If the investor has better info, he would understand his risk better and therefore he might decide to undertake such a risk
Nightsurfer This model assumes complete market efficiency (perfect information). Therefore, no investor can know more than any other. By consequence, they all have the same expectation of return.
michlam14 for c, i don't think anyone will want high risk low return? risk seeking will also want high return for high risk, but just doesnt seek as much premium as a risk averse person for taking risk?
johntan1979 Nightsurfer is right. Go review the chapter on EMH.
