Katie Ledecky: Just Add Water 9/6/24

The most decorated American woman in Olympic history, Katie Ledecky has written a memoir, “Just Add Water.” In a special interview with Andrew Ross Sorkin, Ledecky shares details about her swimming life–including both leisurely and competitive moments in the pool. She explains what she thinks about, while swimming 1500 meters, and how she’ll prepare for the 2028 Olympic Games. Plus, CNBC’s Megan Cassella reports on the CEOs backing former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, but venture capitalist Ben Narasin is unhappy with both candidates running for President this year. The startup investor explains why he votes as an Independent every election. Berkshire Hathaway is selling Bank of America shares (again), Red Lobster’s hoping for a turnaround, and the August jobs report did very little to clarify the Fed’s path forward.
