You Can Join the AIM Program Student Equity Presentations in person, online or view Twitter on
Friday, March 11th at 3:00 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:
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.
