She wants to increase the average annual return on her portfolio from 2.5% to 4.5%. In order to do so, she must do which of the following? Check all that apply. Sell some of her stocks and use the proceeds to purchase bonds Accept more risk Sell some of her stocks and place the proceeds in a savings account Sell some of her bonds and use the proceeds to purchase stocks
