      2nd Answer Example

      "I have been reading more in the news about water scarcity as a global phenomenon and how this could soon make water a good investment. Shortages in upcoming years could make water a precious commodity, making it a potential opportunity for investors. From the research I have conducted, I see that a small amount of traditional mutual funds and exchange-traded funds already invest in water. These investments are mainly around its delivery, testing, and cleaning. I believe there could be phenomenal growth as governments strive to battle expected water shortages."
