Largely unpopular and less sexy than banking, hedge funds, and basically any other part of the financial services industry. Equity research as obviously taken a tumble. What do you guys think can be done to strengthen this field?

Is this some sort of dumb joke? Hedge funds unpopular? More like over-saturated with the top hedge funds accumulating massive returns. Take a trip to Greenwich and Manhattan to see how "unpopular" hedge funds are.
Equity research, on the other hand, has seen better days before the advent of hedge funds and sarbanes.
I have to agree with vfrex on this one. If you do have a job in banking, youre bound to get slaughtered come bonus time for lack of attentionjn to detail :)

Please tell me you don't have a job in finance.
In fact, I do. Considering that many ex-banking MBA's are going either to top Hedge funds or Private equity, you're frankly badly misinformed.
Not to mention, calling banking "sexy" when at the analyst level it's frankly a crappy job considering the hours and the relatively low compensation. Many Entry level PE analysts and Hedge fund analysts from good firms make almost as much with about 65-80% of the hours.
No, you're just having trouble understanding what I wrote.
you guys need rest - this thread makes less than zero sense.
