Investment Club Meetings
Our weekly meetings begin with an open discussion about market-related current events. Members are encouraged to come prepared with topics or questions they would like to share. In each meeting, a club member delivers a presentation about an aspect of investing. Past topics have included careers in finance, understanding alpha and beta measures, and discounted cash flow models. We also highlight resources and reading material students can utilize to grow as investors.
Student Investment Fund
The Pepperdine Student Investment Fund is a selective program that allows student analysts to research, debate, and pitch stocks, mutual funds & REITS. While voting privileges are reserved for analysts only, these meetings are open to all students as they provide valuable insight into portfolio management.
