Answer:

C) defensive

Explanation:

Defensive stocks are stocks that generally perform well during economic recessions. In other words, their price is not related to the market tendency. Even if the market goes down, their price remains stable. Generally companies that sell products with a constant demand are considered defensive stocks, e.g. Costco, Target, Walmart, utilities (all, electric, gas, water), etc.
