Answer:
Short-selling long-term bonds and taking long position on short-term assets
Explanation:
When the yield curve ascends, the long-term bond's price will go down. Hence, do short-sell the long-term bonds. On the other hand, short-term asset's price will be depreciated because Fed tightens credit and raise short-term rate, which is the chance to purchase and make profits from capital gains.
Answer:
B) underestimated the competition.
Explanation:
Maya is trying to pursue a dream of having her own bakery in a vibrant seaside resort town and thought that by using her grandmother's recipes, her business would be a success. But in order for a business to be successful, it takes more than just a great product (or great cookies, muffins, etc.).
The first thing you need to do is analyze the external environment and what other products are offered by your competition. That way you will be able to determine the opportunities or threats to you new venture. E.g. since the town hosts several upscale and expensive resorts, the clients are wealthy and that market attracts good chefs. I'm not sure if they hand out Michelin stars to bakeries, but if you have very good products offered by your competition, then you must work twice as hard.
