Which of the following statements is true about broker markets?
Group of answer choices

Brokers’ extensive contacts provide them with a pool of price information that individual investors could easily duplicate themselves, and hence not really value adding.

Investors have an incentive to hire a broker because what they charge as a commission is less than the cost of direct search.

Brokers can guarantee an order because they have an inventory of securities.

Brokers bring buyers and sellers together to earn a margin, called a bid-ask spread.
