A. Over reaction and Correction

Explanation:

Over reaction is the situation whereby investors gets over excited due to an emotional response on an event leading to a security becoming overbought or over sold until it returns to its intrinsic value. In this case, the increase in price came from the announcement that the unpopular CEO had resigned. Correction on the other hand refers to the drop in prices of stock from their current peak. After the overreaction, correction occured in which the price dropped and remained constant at the dropped price.

the correct answer is economics is a game without winners or losers.

unlike sports or games economic is a game without losers or winner rather it is a game where everyone wins. parties of business doing businesses exchange money with each other and hence exchange is done on the basis of goods. one party takes the goods and other sales it so there is winner on both sides. each party values more highly the good it gets than the good it gives up. both sides exchange only because both intend to increase their value. so there is no concept of lose or win.
