Equity Research

Long/Hold/Short

All about Equity.

The Equity Research Division represents the bottom-up component of our investment approach. Our members screen and analyze equities on a regular basis individually or in small teams.

They build financial models, draft equity research reports and pitch stocks in a competitive manner throughout the semester and at our Final Pitching Session.
