+-1 I am at one of GS TMT or MS Menlo, and I think Q still is the better bank for M&A. IPO's are different, BB's will always lead them because of much stronger access to investor capital. Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+-1 As a hypernontarget you'll be lucky to get KeyBanc New York. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 This might be different when you’re in the seat but I feel like any case dealing with material fraud would be really interesting - FBG right now (LAZ RX) and FTX more notably (PWP RX). Intern in IB - Gen

+-1 People just assume this is 96 - 01 all over again, but they don't understand utilization at all.  Which is ironic when it comes from the RE professionals.  Is AI perfect? No, but is it all useless slop? No. ioncewenttoschool
