Which of the characteristics put forth by Chaterji to describe the factor-based approach is/are correct?
选项：
A.Only Characteristic 1
B.Only Characteristic 2
C.Both Characteristic 1 and Characteristic 2
解释：
A is correct.
The factors commonly used in the factor-based approach generally have low correlations with the market and with each other. This results from the fact that the factors typically represent what is referred to as a zero (dollar) investment or self-financing investment, in which the under-performing attribute is sold short to finance an offsetting long position in the better-performing attribute. Constructing factors in this manner removes most market exposure from the factors (because of the offsetting short and long positions); as a result, the factors generally have low correlations with the market and with one another. Also, the factors commonly used in the factor-based approach are typically similar to the fundamental or structural factors used in multifactor models.
两个选项能再解释一下吗？感觉之前的解释可能不太懂。
