Preparing Long and Short stock pitches for interviews

Which research, crucial items, and opinions should I be formulating and include when preparing a long and short stock pitch for an ib interview? (I'm a rising sophomore and have been told various times this a very common formal or informal interview question. I want to be properly prepared with an appropriately detailed pitch for each stock).

Just look out for threads about stock pitches or alternatively you could write your own and get some feedback on it.
