Core Trading Consultants

The Core Trading Consultants, also known as CTC, is an entirely student run finance organization that gives its members the opportunity to integrate coursework with real-world experience. This opportunity is realized through active management of the Ithaca College Investment Club (ICIC) mutual fund, which has roughly $100,000 in combined assets.Like an investment bank, the CTCs are broken down into sector groups. During these group meetings (scheduled as additional meetings, apart from the general meeting on Thursday), the CTCs research companies within their industry, set up watch lists, and compare fundamentals between firms. Over time, each industry group selects a stock that they believe will appreciate in value and gives a “buy presentation” during a general Thursday meeting. A vote by alumni determines if the stock will be added to the fund’s portfolio (a majority vote resulting in an acquisition). Each industry group is composed of a Senior Analyst (an upper class student), and a group of Junior Analysts, who are taught the necessary skills needed to succeed in the financial field by their Senior Analyst.General Body meetings are every Thursday from 12:10 pm - 1:00 pm in the Trading Room (Bus 105).If you have any questions please email ctc@ithaca.edu.
