7th Annual
Investment Research Challenge: Yale Wins

The Investment Research Challenge is a six-month educational
initiative in which leading industry professionals teach business and
finance students how to research and report on a publicly traded
company. It consists of training in research and report writing,
analysis of a public company, mentoring by a professional research
analyst, assessment of written reports, and presentation of research to
a high-profile panel of Wall Street experts.
Premier sponsors for the Investment Research Challenge are EDGAR Online
and Thomson Reuters. EDGAR Online (NASDAQ: EDGR), is supplying students
with access to its award winning I-Metrix product, a suite of
interactive XBRL data applications and analytical tools that facilitate
research. Thomson Reuters (NYSE: TRI), is hosting the panel
presentations on February 19.
The winning team will be selected based on the combined scores for the
written report and the presentation and will qualify for the CFA
Institute Global Investment Research Challenge to compete against teams
from across the world.
