My personal experience has shown CNBC of OLD to be of considerable "investment" advantage, in answer to your inquiry. Made specific money off of Michael Metz, Louis Yamana, Eugene Peroni, even ole dufus from Unterberg Harris, Brian what-zis-name.

Then there were the good ole days of making money off of Murphy's chart explanations, and even enjoyed shorting ole Dan O the Dorf O's pics and pans... Mostly short-term money, frankly.

First got started on the 'street side' by keeping tick charts in the old days on the XOI and buying puts and calls when tick and trin went to extremes...that was fun...pre-computers doncha know.

Pretty watered down nowadays and CNBC doesn't stand for much o'anything since they canned Murphy, put in Kathleen Hays as a lousy substitute for old Ed the bond man... Then there is ole Pis-ant-i doing his real-estate twist on stocks and bonds, trying to out blumberg, Roy, who was pretty darn priceless.

Why can't they keep the gooders? Doesn't GE have enuf money to pay fer quality instead of just slotholders??
