Answer:A. 30% Stock, 70% fixed income (bond)

Explanation:

The stock market is the buying and selling of stock which values are subject to market speculations and it's inherent variations.

Precious metals is buying and selling of rare gems whose price are also subject to market valuation with incremental variations.

International bonds prices are not only affected by market forces but also international goverments influence which causes price variations.

Fixed bonds income provided fixed income at stated periods.

This are invariably why the emphasis should be on fixed income bond.
