Suggested Answer: C 🗳️
The most suitable stock fund for your young client who is targeting an early retirement is the growth fund. Growth funds are primarily invested in stocks that pay no dividends since growth firms reinvest their earnings to support their higher-than-average growth rates. Your client doesnt need dividend income and will have to pay taxes on any dividends she receives even if she reinvests them. Both balanced funds and value funds can be expected to pay higher dividends.
