discussion forum

Answer two question in a separate post. You need to post a link in every forum regardless of whether you have Student’s Choice or not.

Be aware that articles from “Investopedia” and “Wikipedia” do not count…you need to be more academic than that.

Please separate your responses to different questions into different postings.
