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:
·         Daniel Fernandez (Grupo Televisa, TV, International Telecommunications) 
·         Brendan Duffy (Bank of the Internet, BOFI, Financial Services)
·         Mark Lakowske (Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, CBRL, Consumer Staples)
·         Wenting (Mavis) Peng (Lazard Ltd., LAZ, International Financial Services)
·         Robert Uhland (Nutrisystem, Inc., NTRI, Consumer Discretionary)
