Friday, February 12, 2016, four AIM students in the Class of 2016 pitched
stocks.

In
addition to over 40 students attending the pitches in the AIM Room, their
presentations were viewed on-line via a webcast by more than 20 alumni and
parents across North America.
These
presentations again included the opportunity for real-time micro-blogging (via
Twitter). During the AIM student equity pitches on Friday more than 20
questions and comments were posted at #AIMpitch at
the @MarquetteAIM Twitter site.
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 they
pitched.
The
student equity pitches have always been one of the main highlights of the AIM
program.
The
opportunity for students to actively manage domestic and international equity
portfolios has been an important part of Marquette AIM program’s experiential
learning.
The AIM
students who presented on Friday included:
- Ryan Johnston (Home Bancshares, HOMB, Financial Services)
- Brendan Fanning (Swatch Group, SWGAY, International Consumer Discretionary)
- Eric Christopherson (KornFerry, KFY, Industrials)
- Joel Kretz (Associated British Foods, ASBFY, International Consumer Staples)

equity write-ups can be accessed at: http://business.marquette.edu/Content/Uploads/AIM/equity-writeups/2-12-16.pdf.

all student presentations since the inception of the AIM program can be viewed
