US water soars to pre-election high

摘要

Double-digit gains for many North American water equipment stocks helped the Americas segment of the GWI Global Water Index to soar to a new all-time high this month, offsetting losses in Asia to keep the global index in positive territory - and marginally ahead of the MSCI World Index. The stand-out performer was Canada's H_2O Innovation, which rose by more than 50% over the period, bolstered by a record set of full-year results, and a stunning victory over much bigger rivals to scoop the Water Company of the Year accolade at the Global Water Awards.
