View the 4th Set of Marquette AIM Student Equity Pitches for the 2016 Spring Semester on Friday, February 26th at 2:00 CST (and join us on Twitter)

You Can Join the AIM Program Student Equity Presentations on Friday, February 26th at 2:00 pm CST  

The AIM student equity pitches take place each Friday afternoon during the semester – either in the AIM Room or at a local investment company. The students prepare and distribute a professional equity write-up (note: every AIM write-up since the inception of the program in 2005 is archived here). 

This week’s equity write-ups can be found at:

Student Presenter	Company Name	Ticker	Sector
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

The students are responsible for making a five-minute pitch before their peers, faculty and any alumni or investment professional in attendance (note: the Friday afternoon equity presentations are also webcast live - see below on how to join the webcast).

Following the student’s pitch the floor is opened for questions and answers for about ten minutes. This has been highly instructive as the students must be prepared to defend their investment recommendation and answer questions in an extemporaneous manner.
