Explanation

This question tests subject-verb agreement and conciseness. The subject is 'The message' (singular), so the verb must be 'makes' (singular), not 'make' (plural). Options A, B, C all incorrectly use 'make'. Option D correctly uses 'makes me feel fortunate.' Additionally, Option D simplifies 'stocks traded on the NASDAQ stock exchange' to 'NASDAQ stocks,' which is more concise while maintaining clarity. The redundancy of 'NASDAQ' appearing twice in the original is eliminated.
