Question

each business day news report tell the number of stocks that gained ( went up in price ) for each of the following pairs of reports determine which report is better news for investors

Answer 1

You haven't told us what any of the reports said.

Even if you DID decide to let us see see a pair of reports,
it wouldn't be enough information to answer the question.

If the price of a share of stock goes up today, that's good news
for an investor IF he owns some of that stock.  But it's bad news
for him if he never owned any, or if he used to own some and he
sold it yesterday.
