ASM Practice Exam 1 Number 14

The problem is:

Quote:

Which of the statements are not a weakness of the lognormal model for stock prices:

A. Volatility is constant
B. Large stock movements do not occur
C. Projected stock prices are skewed to the right
D. Stock returns are not correlated over time
E. A-D area all weaknesses
The Answer is C, saying "C is not a weakness, since one would expect that the multiplicative change in stock price, rather than the additive change, is symmetric."

Isn't the lognormal model skewed to the right?
