The AIM
student equity pitches take place each Friday afternoon during the semester –
either in the AIM Room or at a local investment company.

students prepare and distribute a professional equity write-up (note: every AIM

highly instructive as the students must be prepared to defend their investment
recommendation and answer questions in an extemporaneous manner.
