Definition: In this task, you're given a statement and three sentences as choices. Your job is to determine the neutral choice based on your inference from the statement and your commonsense knowledge. The neutral choice is a sentence that neither agrees nor disagrees with the statement. Indicate your answer as '1', '2', or '3', corresponding to the choice number of the selected sentence. If sentence X agrees with sentence Y, one's correctness follows from the other one. If sentence X disagrees with sentence Y, they can not be correct at the same time.
Input: Statement: Because, until recently with online trading, the whole industry I work in was predicated on the ignorance of the client. Choices: 1. A correlation has been found between smarter clients and the decline of my industry, but online trading is reversing that. 2. Smart and well informed customers help maintain a strong industry, especially today. 3. A poorly informed client base has been what kept the industry I work in alive, until recently, when the dawn of online trading changed that.
