Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: A BEAR market is a prolonged declining market.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: First, the investment banker provides talent and expertise to structure the sale of the newly issued shares while complying with all SEC regulations. Second, the investment banker prepares the prospectus, a document that provides potential buyers with information about the company and the impending sale. Third, the investment banker makes sure that all relevant information is disclosed prior to the sale. If material information is not disclosed prior to the sale, both the issuing company and the investment banker may be liable if a lawsuit is brought by those who bought the newly issued shares.
