I'm feeling a bit 'yield-y' today, but I think C is the correct answer. Equity prices in cold, hard cash per share. No percentage games here!

I'm going with C. Expressing equity prices as monetary units per share is the standard practice. Anything else would just be weird.

Hmm, I was tempted by D, but C makes the most sense. Equity prices aren't expressed as a percentage of the company, that would be too complicated.
