First AIM Presentations of the Spring 2016 Semester
On
Friday, January 29, 2016, four AIM students in the Class of 2016 pitched
stocks. In addition to over 50 students attending the pitches in the AIM Room,
their presentations were viewed on-line via a webcast by more than a dozen alumni
across the country.

These
presentations also included something new: micro-blogging (via Twitter). During
the AIM student equity pitches on Friday more than 20 questions and comments
were posted at #AIMpitch.
The presenting students have the opportunity to
respond to the questions over the weekend before the students vote on whether
or not to add the stocks.
The AIM
student equity pitches have always been one of the main highlights of the
program. The opportunity for students to actively manage domestic and
international equity and fixed-income portfolios has been an important part of
Marquette AIM program’s experiential learning since its inception in 2005.
The AIM
students who presented on Friday included:
- Avery Flyte (Buffalo Wild Wings, BWLD, Consumer Discretionary)
- Dan Kralovec (Medidata Solutions, MDSO, Healthcare)
- Travis Mantel (Prudential Plc, PUK, International Financial Services)
- John Grant (WNS Holdings, WNS, International Industrials)
