Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": All securities in an efficient market are zero net present value investments.

Explanation:

The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) states that neither public or insider information cannot help in an attempt to beat the market because stocks already show all available information possible. Thus, neither using technical or fundamental analysis could be useful to predict future stock price movement.  

In other words, in a market under EMH all stocks are zero Net Present Value (present value inflows minus present value outflows) investment vehicles.
