CNBC
Term category: Companies
In 10 words or less: A channel on cable television that provides coverage of the financial markets.

Definition: CNBC is the news channel that covers the financial markets.

StockJargon Advice: CNBC was criticized for its coverage of the dot com bubble during the late 90's because it took more of a cheerleader role than as an objective news source.

Now, the network is required to report whether analysts it has on its shows do banking business with the stocks they're talking about.
