Pitching a Short for the Stock of a Bank you are Interviewing with
Is it frowned upon to pitch a short for the bank you have a superday with if asked to pitch something? I will not come in unprepared as I plan on bringing in printed versions of comps, an excess equity model, and a brief equity research report on why my pitch is justified. My thinking is that this type of move will show I can function under pressure and hold my ground in arguments. If all goes well, I could potentially change the mind of the employee who was long the stock prior to meeting me.
Thoughts?
No you fucking idiot.
No. Horrible Idea.
Sounds like a good idea to me. Might want to mention how their competitors have more talented employees and thus are in a strong position to take their market share. At the end of the super-day be sure to imply that you would be doing a favor to them if you chose to accept the offer they are sure to extend to you.

I'd be careful not to come across as a bit arrogant
Trolling or pure autism?
Say they need to cut investment banking headcount--an especially good idea interviewing at places like Deutsche and Nomura
Hahhaha this has to be a troll. Imagine an MD's face though, if some try-hard intervewee dumped a pile of paper on the desk in the middle of an interview. "Yeah these are some reports I've put together."
the f*** mate?
OP, the fact that you even thought of this makes me worried about what your responses to other questions would be like.
