CNBC Anchors - Worse and Worst

I think [Joe Kernan] is the smartest one CNBC-- he knows the whole thing is a joke, that's why he makes a joke out of everything he reports on. He'd make more money doing a comedy talk-show.

That's the funniest thing I've read in quite a while! :D
 
Contrary to most traders, I have CNBC on with no picture and only sound.
When Maria's voice gets to that shrieking pitch that she is so good at I go short. This means the market is going up (Recovery Watch) and she is singly handly propelling it higher with her determined enthusiasm. When she sounds like a morose mourner, I go long, because she is convinced the free market system is in collapse.
Just kidding.

Is it me or does she sometimes look like she has been partying like it's 1999?
:p

. . . especially the way she says her name " This is Maria Bar-chir-romo and you're looking a live shot of the floor of the NYSE"

I also love her perpetual bullishness. The Nasdaq futures are down 46 points, the S&P down 10, half the Nasdaq 100 is gapping down by 10% at the moment and "we're looking at some weakness at the open. Money is rotating out of the tech sector."

When the futures are up 1 point: "We've got a strong open indicated, with plenty of money on the sidelines."

Objective journalism at its very best.
 
A few months back on one of her "call in" segments, a caller congratulated her on her pregnancy. She was stunned and muttered,"uhh...I'm not pregnant". It was hilarious.

:D

You're right, she is such a bull I think she could get a herd of cows pregnant.

There's a bear market rally of 7% across the board and the next day it all gaps down and starts a long grind lower......."after yesterdays breathtaking rally we are seeing some profit taking here.....however.....the internals are holding up and I'm hearing that a lot of traders are feeling positive on that....we are on Recovery Watch at the N Why Essay"...

I love here though.

I thought I was the only one in America who thought that there
was something funny going on (a conspiracy of soughts) in the
way she pronounces her name and the way every one else
at CNBC does.

You're right she pronounces the "ti" as "chee" (as in the Korean
food "kim-chee") and everyone else pronounces it as it is
written (i.e. "tee" as in the golf term "tee off"). I'm surprised
that she hasn't sent out a memo to her colleagues explaining
how to pronounce her name, as they certainly haven't picked up
on it (or they do it to spite her).
