I usually have CNBC on but with no sound, but I'm thinking about turning off the TV and just trade. Any alternatives (Internet-based) to watching CNBC??? (I don't get Bloomberg on my cable.)
If I have a TV I will have CNBC or Bloomberg turned on with the volume down low. Until those bafoons on CNBC start arguing, then I mute it for awhile. I do like to know WHEN the news is coming out, economic reports and such, but I care far far more about the markets reaction to the news than the actual news itself. I would rather focus on the price and volume action than try to interpret the news AND guess how it will affect the market.
I watch cnbc for late breaking news. I wish I had bloomberg to see how they do with up to the minute breaking news. The online guys are too slow for me.
