IMO this is a crime...all it takes is one little negative comment from the EGO maniacs..aka.. david faber and joe kernan and they can make a stock like intc drop 2 points in minutes....and now they keep pumping the ECN's (electronic communications network)on their show.

CNBC has way too much power and influence as it is on the markets and now they bought an ECN which makes the market on the NASDQ.

disclaimer: all the above statements are my opinion of CNBC and if you don't like it...well thats too bad.
