He does, however, have stock investments.
Would the investment be fit for one of these categories?
- Employment income

Nada... both require your friend to work. It may be considered self employment income but he would've had to be making many trades a day for it to be considered work. If that's the case, they still wouldn't qualify because they can still work as the markets are still open.
