    Enough with the excessive “reporter” (really news readers) involvement. It would be nice to hear a thing or two from your guests for a change.

  • TOO LOUD

    Why are CNBC’s market shows so loud? It makes listening very tiring. It’s like watching cable news.

  • I wish the CNBC hosts would stop sucking up to Trump and call the madness out…

    I’m really tired of all the shows soft-peddling the lack of coherent strategy and meat-axe approach by ”DOGE” to “downsizing” the Federal workforce and just call it what it is - the forced destruction of government services and the administrative state for everyone but the 1%. “DOGE” should, at minimum, publish a strategy, why certain things are targeted, and REAL savings achieved, not just blowhard PR. The “uncertainty” they continually refer to is because Trump and Musk have no agenda to actua... more

  • Very good

    I prefer Closing Bell over Overtime. Scott Wapner is an excellent host and brings in quality guests. I am not a huge fan of Jon Fortt. His On The Other Hand segment is lame. Morgan Brennan is okay. I prefer to pass on Overtime unless specific company earnings are being released after the market closes. Lastly, please stop bringing back members of the Halftime Report investment committee so often, like Josh Brown, Stephanie Link, and Joe Terranova. We get enough of them elsewhere. Guests like Ada... more

    She’s unlistenable. I can’t hit the fast forward button fast enough when I hear start to pip and squeak about her portfolio and what an f’ing tenuous she is.
