Starting out...

I will be a freshman next year at a target Ivy League university, majoring in economics. I hope to get into investment banking and eventually PE or HF if I do well enough and actually like it. Besides enjoying my summer, I'd like to spend a little bit of time every day reading up on relevant material so I have an edge when it comes to internships/jobs.

My knowledge of finance and business is limited, but I'd like to get a a very good grasp of the topics.My question is, beside reading The Economist, WSJ, etc. what textbooks/pdfs/websites/resources can I use? Thank you!
