Congratulations to our remarkable students from Big Apple Investment that advanced to the Semifinal Round of the 2023-2024 Wharton Global High School Investment Competition.
The Wharton Global High School Investment Competition is a 12-week challenge in which students compete in teams, led by an advisor, to win the chance to manage the wealth of a potential client. Presented with a case study featuring this client, teams must create a compelling and creative long-term strategy that addresses the client’s investment goals. Along the way, they learn investing concepts with the help of Wharton Global Youth Program materials, conduct in-depth analysis, and buy and sell stocks for their portfolios using an online simulator designed for trading and portfolio-management education.
Following the competition through to the end is a big commitment. Our school’s Big Apple Investment was one of 50 top global teams selected from more than 1,600 final competition reports.
Members of Big Apple Investment are: Tomas Levani, William Li, Luis Vallejo, Charles Merkel, Ashley Lo, Andy Xian and Leonid Metlitsky. Congrats to all! We're so proud of you!
Congrats as well to Kathleen O'Connell for serving as the team’s advisor. They played an essential role in the students’ success.
