Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: A friend of mine who wanted to access the cash portion of his portfolio was told by his advisor that that the cash was part of a "sleeve" and therefore could not draw on the cash that showed in his statement. He ended by having to sell some of his stocks to get the cash he needed.
Can you please explain what is "sleeve investing" and why he did not have access to the cash portion of his portfolio?
Thank you

Q: I wanted to add a comment to a question asked recently about Global Water Resources. The fall in the stock price is almost entirely related to the Cdn/US$ exchange rate as the main listing is now on the NASDX, and the US listing trading closer to 52 week highs. With the low liquidity on the TSX, the company may chose to get rid of the Canadian listing and stick with the NASDX which has better daily volume.

Q: The 8% gain of the Cdn dollar over the past few weeks could have a huge impact on stocks like NFI and others in a negative way.
With the Cdn dollar on a terror lately what sectors if any would stand to gain from this currency move and what would be two individual stocks that you think could gain by the US/Cdn exchange rate moving closer to par.
Always appreciate your perspective.
Thank you
Terry
