Answer:

B. Discount brokers don't give investment advice or do stock market analysis

Step-by-step explanation:

Discount brokers are stockbrokers who carry out buy ad sell orders at a reduced commission rate; that is to say, they just execute orders for their clients and do not provide investment advice or perform analysis on a client's behalf. However, full-service brokers are licensed financial broker-dealers that provide more services to their clients. Those services include research and advice, retirement planning, tax tips, and more.
