Anchoring bias occurs when an investor fixates on a reference point (e.g., purchase price) and refuses to sell until the investment returns to that level, even if conditions have changed .
Julia anchors on $25.44, her purchase price, and won't sell at $19.72.
Availability bias = reliance on recent/easy info.
Representativeness = stereotyping based on limited traits.
Hindsight bias = belief that past events were predictable.
Thus, Julia demonstrates Anchoring bias.

Survivorship bias occurs when underperforming funds are terminated and excluded from performance rankings, making surviving funds appear to perform better over time. The feedback from the document states:
"All comparison universes exhibit some degree of survivorship bias no matter how carefully the universes are constructed. Survivorship bias develops as defunct portfolios drop out and are excluded from rankings in subsequent quarters. Funds that are terminated or cease to exist are usually those who have been unsuccessful, creating an upward bias in the returns of longer-run funds in the surviving universe."

According to the Closed-End Funds vs. Open-End Funds: What's the Difference? - Investopedia, open-end funds are mutual funds that can issue an unlimited number of shares to investors. The number of units is not fixed, and varies with investor demand and redemption orders. Investors buy and sell open-end funds directly from the fund company at the net asset value (NAV) of the fund, which is calculated at the end of each trading day. Open-end funds are not traded on an exchange or in the secondary market.

Although Canadian chartered banks are considered high-quality, dividend-paying "blue-chip" stocks, a portfolio composed only of bank stocks still carries risk due to lack of diversification. The Investment Funds in Canada curriculum explains that diversification reduces risk only when assets have low or negative correlation. Bank stocks tend to move together because they are influenced by similar economic factors such as interest rates, credit conditions, and regulatory changes.
This means the portfolio would have positive correlation, increasing exposure to sector-specific risk. While dividends may reduce volatility, they do not eliminate market or sector risk. The CIFC text stresses that
"concentration in one sector exposes investors to systematic sector risk," even when the companies are financially strong.
Options C and D are incorrect because no equity investment is risk-free, regardless of dividend history or reputation. Option B exaggerates risk by implying instability, which is inconsistent with Canadian banks' historical performance.
Therefore, the correct and CIFC-verified answer is Option A.
