Answer:

b

Explanation:

Portfolio diversification is the process of holding different asset and security classes in order to minimise the non systemic risk of the portfolio

Correlation is a statistical measure used to measure the relationship that exists between two variables.

1. Positive correlation : it mean that the two variables move in the same direction. If one variable increases, the other variable also increases. It increases the risk of the portfolio

For example, there should be a positive correlation between quantity supplied and price

When there is a positive correlation, the graph of the variables is upward sloping

2. Negative correlation :  it mean that the two variables move in different direction. If one variable increases, the other variable decreases. It decreases the risk of the portfolio

For example, there should be a negative correlation between quantity demanded and price

When there is a negative correlation, the graph of the variables is downward sloping

3. Zero correlation : there is no relationship between the variables. It decreases the risk of the portfolio
