E)Groh argues that holding many stocks over a long time will ensure growth in value, which assumes that the stock market as a whole grows in value over time:if it did not, then holding several stocks over a long period of time may not be sufficient to ensure growth in value. Groh does not assume that interest rates will always be lower than inflation (Choice A); that any stock will increase in value given enough time (Choice B); that risk in investment correlates with growth in value over time (Choice C); or that investing in more stocks ensures that they will all increase in value (Choice D).
