C. Margin can amplify both gains and losses, but the bigger risk for a new investor is not fully understanding margin calls and forced liquidation. If they also cannot afford significant losses, borrowing to invest could put them in a difficult position very quickly. Better to understand the mechanics and risks first before considering margin.
