Eric Almeter of Buffalo Helps Team Choose Winning Stocks

2016 Jun 6

Eric Almeter of Buffalo, NY helped to choose stocks that netted a return of 6.41 percent over a six-month period from October 2015 to April 2016 in the annual Adirondack Cup competition, sponsored by Adirondack Funds.

Almeter and the other team members, all undergraduates, researched small-cap stocks and decided which companies to include in their portfolio worth a hypothetical million dollars. The competition provides students with the opportunity to gain experience in financial services.

The Economics and Finance Department at Buffalo State offers undergraduate degrees in economics and a master's degree in applied economics as well as minors in business economics, international economics, and economic policy analysis.
