Neveah Fleming · Answer 1

Gina is most concerned about B) risk.

Although stocks offer a high return, Gina is put off by the fact that they have the potential for greater losses. This is the risk of the investment, the probability and magnitude of possible losses.

Lewis Kidd · Answer 2

She is most likely looking at the risk factor, however this will also affect her return. I would go with risk because this is what most troubles her.
