ST investments
What it is
Financial holdings meant to be sold within a year: short bonds, deposits, money-market funds.
How to read it
Read alongside cash: together they form the company's real liquid reserve.
What it does not tell you
Less immediate than cash: in stressed markets, selling them can take time or cost a discount.
