B. more shares will dilute the existing value of the stock, causing its market price to fall
C. the market will view the new share issue as a sign the company is in financial difficulty
D. issuing bonds is a more secure method for corporations to raise needed money

B. more shares will dilute the existing value of the stock, causing its market price to fall

Explanation:

A bond can be defined as a debt or fixed investment security, in which a bondholder (creditor or investor) loans an amount of money to the bond issuer (government or corporations) for a specific period of time.

Generally, the bond issuer is expected to return the principal at maturity with an agreed upon interest to the bondholder, which is payable at fixed intervals.

The reason a large publicly traded corporation would likely prefer issuing bonds as a way to raise new money as opposed to issuing more shares is because more shares will dilute the existing value of the stock, causing its market price to fall and may negatively affect by reducing the value and proportional ownership of the investor's shares in the corporation.
