The Fish Corporation has purchased two different types of securities for its portfolio.

The first is a stock investment in Carroll Corporation. The Fish Corporation has the intent of holding this investment for many years.
The other investment is a debt security investment. This purchase was made because the company s analyst believes there will be changes in market interest rate and this will cause these securities to increase in value in a short period of time.
The Fish Corporation has every intention of selling the securities as soon as they have increased in value.
