Answer to Question 1

Answer: TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: C) Dealers make money on the difference between what they buy stock for and what they sell it for, much as a car dealer makes money by buying a used car at one price and then selling it later at a higher or marked-up price. A bull market is a prolonged rising market, one in which stock prices in general are increasing. A bear market is a prolonged declining market, one in which stock prices in general are decreasing.
