Starting from this list of Davos attendees, I've attempted to quickly classify the 711 "USA" individuals by racial or ethnic ancestry.
This is a very rough draft, but the initial breakdown I come up with is [29 Jan: made a few changes (see comments); updated percentages shown in brackets]:
[46.41%] 46.69% Northwestern European
[27.29%] 27.43% Jewish
6.05% Southern European
5.49% South Asian
[4.08%] 3.80% Middle Eastern
3.38% Latin America / Brazil
3.23% East Asian
2.25% Eastern European
1.55% Black
[0.28%] 0.14% North American Indian
Corrections are welcome. I've again defaulted to putting people in the NW European category. There may be a few false positives in the Jewish category, but there are probably more false negatives.

This is a very rough draft, but the initial breakdown I come up with is: 46.69% Northwestern European
27.43% Jewish
6.05% Southern European
5.49% South Asian
3.80% Middle Eastern
3.38% Latin America / Brazil
3.23% East Asian
2.25% Eastern European
1.55% Black
0.14% North American Indian
It looks like Jews, South Asians, and Middle Easterners are overrepresented. While all the other groups are underrepresented or roughly match their proportion of the general population.
Good info. Makes a nice comparison with your older post (2010?) about the Forbes 400.
If Jews are 36% of the Forbes 400 (on average, an older group) but only 27% of Davos invitees, does that mean they are past their peak?
Looks like South Asians are on the way up.
By golly you're right, Steve-o.
The time is ripe for you to lead the Citizenist Party to victory! Just make sure not to alienate Jews or non-whites. Diversity is our strength, after all.
Lee Bollinger is Jewish. Rich Lesser and Jake Seid are very probably Jewish.
Nicholas D. Kristof Columnist The New York Times - not Jewish.

Steve,
"If Jews are 36% of the Forbes 400 (on average, an older group) but only 27% of Davos invitees, does that mean they are past their peak?"
I'd want to look at trends for billionaires and Davos invitees separately before drawing any conclusions.
Incidentally, a significant fraction of the "Northwest European" US Davos attendees are European/Canadian/Australian/etc., and my impression is that of US-born attendees an even greater proportion are Jewish (though I have not verified this).
Given population trends alone, it certainly wouldn't be surprising if Jewish representation in various elite demographics has peaked. But according to Ron Unz's it doesn't appear to have worked out like that in elite college admissions.
Other commenters,
Thank you. I moved Lesser, Seid, Kristof, and Fleming. Looking over the Jewish list, I also removed Kathy Calvin (checking again, the Bushkin is from an ex-husband and I find no evidence she's ethnically Jewish herself), David T. Seaton (don't remember why I included him in the first place), and Christine Lagarde (many assume she's Jewish but I don't immediately locate any confirmation).
I don't find any definitive evidence of Jewish ancestry for Bollinger either, though Ed Koch apparently thinks he's a Jew. Looking at Bollinger's genealogy, two of his great-grandparents were born in Russia, but they may have been ethnic Germans (surnames Bolinger/Ballinger/Bollinger and Mauch).
Here's a new blog: Occam's Razor
http://occamsrazormag.wordpress.com/
It has multiple bloggers and will include topics: HBD, politics, history and economics, immigration, etc.
We are still working on blogroll. If we do not have you added, please add us, leave comment or email, and we'll add you.
Thanks.
David Ignatius' father is Armenian.
TGGP,
Moved. Thanks.
Jacqueline D. Reses is Jewish. Please update your list.

I would recommend that you also take a look at the ethnic origins of the US attendees of the annual Bilderberg Conference. The Jewish percentage of the American attendees ranges from 60%-80% every year.
The attendees of the Bilderberg Conference are a much more select and elite group than the attendees of the World Economic Forum in Davos.
Moved Reses.
Peter Grauer is Jewish
On ancestry.com it says Grauer is a Jewish last name
looking at bollinger's geneology.
apparently n/a is blind and reads brail. so the interwebs have brail now?
LOOK at bollinger.
if he's a jew there's absolutely no sign of it in his facial skeleton or coloring or skull shape.
but he's the pre-eminent apologist for affirmative action.
n/a has got to leave that cabin in the maine woods. or maybe he just has a shriveled right hemisphere.
fuck all.
n/a should comment on this as i have.
hbders have zero historical sense. is n/a an exception? no.
ashkenazi accomplishment is very recent. the last 100 years.
oblomov's stolz was the paridigmatic pushy striver.
that is, the outstanding ethnic minority in the 19th c russian empire was the GERMANS!
those who excuse the un-accomplishment of jews at this time by "discrimination" should ask themselves if now is any different for other un-accomplished minorities in Europe and its diaspora.
Robert J. Shiller is Eastern European, as he is of Lithuanian descent
