WHEN: Starting Thursday, April 25 at 2PM ET
WHERE: CNBC’s “Power Lunch”
CNBC’s “Power Lunch” (M-F 2PM – 3PM) kicks off the 2024 CNBC Stock Draft on Thursday, April 25 in which nine new competitors will compete with the defending champion WWE Superstar Charlotte Flair for the ultimate title of “Stock Draft Champion.”
This year’s draft includes: 16-Time Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest Winner & World Champion Joey Chestnut, Actor & Comedian Druski with over six million followers on TikTok and Instagram, Washington Commanders Running Back Austin Ekeler, former Tennessee Titans Running Back Eddie George, Fitness Personality Jillian Michaels, Mentalist Oz Pearlman, MTV’s “Catfish” Host Nev Schulman, “Inside the NBA” Co-Host Kenny Smith and WNBA MVP Breanna Stewart of the New York Liberty. Can Charlotte Flair once again dominate the competition, or will there be a surprise win from one of the new players? The stakes have never been higher, and anyone could take this year’s title.
Each team will choose two investments from a pre-determined list of 60 stocks and commodities. CNBC will track the performance of each team’s two investments until the Friday before the Super Bowl (February 7, 2025) when the team with the best average appreciation will win.
