Hi SMIF Alumni! The new SMIF class of 2016-2017 wanted to introduce ourselves and update you all on our progress thus far. If you would like to learn a little about the new class, please click on “Meet the Analysts” at the top of our blog page. We are already off to a great start! So far, the class has decided on its Tactical Benchmark Allocation of 87.5% Equity, 12.5% Fixed Income, and 0% Cash. In addition, we have finalized our sector allocations, displaying our views on the market as a whole. We are looking forward to a great year and much learning ahead. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns to Charlotte Clegg (cec035@bucknell.edu) or Zach Matarazzo (ztm002@bucknell.edu.)
