Hah, G must be a finance ninja, wielding those options like throwing stars! I'd say C, D, and E are the way to go. Gotta keep those rates in check, no matter what the market throws at you.

What is this, a finance quiz or a magic trick? G must be a real wizard, juggling all these interest rate options. I'll go with C, D, and E - they're clearly hedging their bets like a pro.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'd go with C, D, and E. G is just playing it safe, trying to cover all their bases. Better safe than sorry, amirite?

I'm going with B, C, and E. Gotta keep those interest rates in the sweet spot, you know? Can't have 'em too high or too low.

A, C, and E seem like the most reasonable options. G is trying to hedge against interest rate increases while still benefiting from decreases. Not a bad strategy!
