Answer:

B. Defensive Strategy

Explanation:

One thing that is inevitable in business is competition. Dexter decided to use a defensive strategy for his business with his retirement coming in and competition becoming even stronger.

Defensive strategies are management techniques used to "fend off attacks" from competitors. It helps the decision maker hold on to shares of the market. Some companies do this to lower the risk of being attacked when they perceive attacks coming from competitors so in turn, those competitors can focus on other competitors in the market.

By 2030, what will Elon Musk's, net worth will be?
Nostrana [21]
Well currently, as of December 2021, his total net worth is totaled to around $266 billion. I believe, in my opinion, he will become a trillionaire within the next 10-20 years, that is unless Elon’s Tesla operation in China eventually bankrupts him. But considering his current net worth, and if he continues with SpaceX and other futuristic projects offering huge investments, 2030 could get him to around $500 billion.
