Answer 1

Answer:

C. Stock analysts can use fundamental analysis to identify undervalued stocks

Explanation:

The answer is that Felix builds his portfolio on the supposition that stock analysts can use fundamental analysis to identify undervalued stocks because the statement indicates that Felix decides to pay to a manager who handles the mutual fund's portfolio to help him find stocks that will increase their value. From this, you can inferred that Felix considers that as the manager works with stocks that he has the knowledge and tools to be able to advise him on the stocks that will increase their value given the constant change and the unpredictability of the stock market.
