The correct answer is A

Explanation:

Diversify is the term which is the procedure of allocating the capital in a method so that it could reduce the exposure to any specific risk or an asset.

In short, it means a path towards the diversification so to decrease the volatility or risk through investing in different assets.

So, in this case, the managers diversify as the sales is falling and there is lower performance in one sector. Therefore, diversify compensate the lack of performance in this sector through having higher performance in another sector.
