Owen and Yang meet with Callie Steven, an upper level executive with AutoPay, a small but fast growing privately held company. She has been employed with AutoPay for more than 15 years and as a result, her holdings in AutoPay are estimated to be more than 30% of her total portfolio. She believes that over the next several years AutoPay will put together an initial public offering, resulting in a huge windfall. She states that she has a significant portion of her portfolio in short-term bonds and money market funds to offset the risk of her AutoPay shares. Owen points out to Steven that her current portfolio is subject to mental accounting, is not constructed in layers, and does not take into consideration covariance between assets.

选项:

这不是把bonds, money market funds和AutoPay shares放在一起考虑抵消shares的风险了吗?怎么会是mental accounting呢?
而且bonds,和money market funds和AutoPay shares的相关性也不大啊,是考虑了covariance呀。
