Many stock traders in the United States have set out to beco

by MdAbuAsad Tue Oct 17, 2023 5:36 pm

Many stock traders in the United States have set out to become global investors, convinced that limiting their investments to the U.S. stock market, which, though certainly home to the stocks of some of the world’s great corporations, restricted their gains.

^^ This sentence is wrong for the wrong use of which clause. Can you explain why does it consider as wrong sentence, please?

Hello Experts,
One more question:
For D and B, WHICH can jump over the preposition. So why we won't consider 'limiting their investments' is a the 'subject' for the verb 'restricted'?

Hi MdAbuAsad!

You're asking about choices D and B but you didn't post a complete question. Can you please add that so we can reply?
