Explanation

A risk-averse investor seeks stable returns with minimal volatility. Option C has the lowest Beta (0.9), indicating lower volatility compared to the market. Beta 1.5 (Option A) indicates high volatility - unsuitable for risk-averse investors. Option D contains a formatting error with '''1 but would likely be Beta 1, which is still higher risk than Beta 0.9.
