You can join the AIM Program Student Equity Presentations in person, online or via Twitter on Friday, April 7th 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. Watch the live presentations by the students in the AIM Class of
2018 (see webcast link below).
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 seven-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.
