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.
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.
