Answer:

(A) Stock A

Explanation:

A greater standard deviation is interpreted as a volatile stock. The price of the investment changes over time with a broad range, which is undesarible for the management of  investment portafolios. There is also a correlation between risk and estimated return, when the commercial activity related with the stock has a stable performance, is commonly secure, and that is the reason why is offered a low rate of return.

In comparision with the second option, the Stock A has a greater volatility and higher return rate.
