- We've got coverage all week from the of World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland where the 2024 US presidential election is top of mind for a lot of the world's biggest leaders. Here's what we heard from folks earlier today.

RON KRUSZEWSKI: In every meeting, I've been in, that's what people are talking about is what happens in the South China Sea, what happens with Putin, what happens with the United States.

IAN BREMMER: The only thing standing in the way of Trump winning is 81-year-old Joe Biden who has a record to run on, but also has a lot of people that feel like he's not actually up to the job. And that is a serious concern for a former president who refused to accept the free and fair transfer of power that our democracy is not well functioning. It is a democracy in crisis? And, yes, that is the top issue being discussed at Davos.

BRIAN MOYNIHAN: Our job is not to predict elections our job is to be able to go no matter what the circumstances. Our job as the business community and as Bank of America is to help governments be successful. Because if they're successful, we're going to be successful.
