How to Read a Stock Ticker on CNBC - YouTube
src: i.ytimg.com

The CNBC Ticker is a computer simulation of ticker tapes used by the American business news-oriented television network CNBC (as well as its international sister channels), that is displayed as a crawl on the lower part of the television screen. The CNBC Ticker shows security and index symbols in the manner of the ticker tapes that received information by telegraph.

The security identifiers used on the CNBC Ticker are taken from nomenclatures used by third-party companies like Reuters or from global stock exchanges.

The ticker is composed of a faster-scrolling upper band with a white background and a slower-scrolling lower band with a dark blue background for all CNBC channels. In addition for some channels, such as CNBC Europe; CNBC-e; CNBC Arabiya and Class CNBC, a third business news band is displayed in gray with a black background.

The ticker is shown throughout the duration of financial news programming on CNBC's domestic and international channels, including national commercial breaks. However, in the United States and Canada, advertisements that are locally inserted by cable television providers may be shown full-screen, omitting the ticker from being displayed during local breaks (as of 2013, all ad inserts by cable television providers, as well as satellite television providers DirecTV and Dish Network are now shown full-screen).

AccuWeather forecast

During the CNBC U.S. morning programs Worldwide Exchange and Squawk Box, the lower band shows weather forecasts of American and European cities provided by State College, Pennsylvania-based forecasting company AccuWeather; three-letter or two-letter abbreviations are used to identify each city that differ somewhat from the IATA location identifiers for cities (due to factors like multiple airports in a city or the airport abbreviation standing for the airport name rather than the city), for example:

  • CHI: Chicago
  • HAR: Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
  • LA: Los Angeles
  • MIA: Miami
  • NYC: New York City
  • SEA: Seattle
  • LON: London
  • PAR: Paris

As of January 2016, the weather forecasts are no longer shown on the lower band of the CNBC ticker.

Fast Money

During the CNBC program Fast Money, the traders' names, along with their respective disclosures, their stock predictions, and viewers' take on their respective stocks via Sprint's text messaging service (which the latter was highlighted in green) were displayed. This particular feature, which was seen only during Sportscenter, was discontinued effective October 10, 2007.

CNBC News Flash

A breaking business news story (for example, "THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD CUTS INTEREST RATES BY A QUARTER POINT") is displayed every two minutes, following the "CNBC News Flash" animation.

CNBC Europe Ticker

CNBC Europe also broadcasts a similar ticker to the ticker seen on CNBC U.S. It contains information from the major stock exchanges in Western Europe and Scandinavia, including prominently, the London Stock Exchange, the Euronext Paris Exchange, and the Deutsche Börse. Unlike the U.S. ticker prior to December 2005, the full stock names have always been displayed for European shares, not symbols. The ticker used by CNBC Europe does, however, use the same symbols for American companies as CNBC U.S. (the full names are now displayed as well). The information for the European ticker is provided by Thomson Reuters (formerly by Moneyline Telerate), and this is regularly promoted on the ticker (appearing approximately every two minutes on the upper band).

During the network's graphical relaunch on March 1, 2010, the green and red colours of the ticker text to show the stock's direction were dropped, however the arrows remain coloured. In March 2010, the ticker switched to a three-band display; The ticker switched back to a two-band display after widescreen transitioning on March 27, 2014.

CNBC-e used a ticker similar to CNBC Europe, which is only shown throughout the business day. The ticker was continuously shown during commercial breaks during the business day.

CNBC Asia Ticker

CNBC Asia also uses a two-line ticker of similar design to the Europe feed's ticker. Early in the morning, the top bar features the listed stocks from major market indexes from New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq (DOW 30 and NASDAQ 100), as well as pre-trade stocks from stock exchanges across Asia-Pacific. As the Asian trading day begins, the top bar generally provides the most actively traded shares in the region where each country's stock data will be reflected once a given market opens. Exceptions to this are on CNBC's Singapore and Australian feeds, in which the top bar exclusively features stock information for their respective local stock markets. The bottom bar provides market indices, currencies, bonds and commodity prices.

From 20.00 until 06.00 HK/SIN time, CNBC Asia simulates the old CNBC U.S. ticker (the version displaying only stock symbols) with no Commodity Summary. The information for this ticker is also provided by Thomson Reuters. Like CNBC U.S. and CNBC Europe, CNBC Asia also keeps its ticker on-screen during commercial breaks, having done so since 2001. If US markets are on holiday, CNBC Asia ticker shows listed stocks from European indices (FTSE 100 and CAC 40).

CNBC TV18 Ticker

CNBC TV18 uses a two-line ticker seven days a week, 24 hours a day (smaller during commercials). As the NSE trading day begins at 8:00, the top bar provides the large cap stocks, and bottom bar shows midcap stocks. From 18:00 (IST), the ticker shows the news headlines at the top, and at the bottom all NSE stocks. If there is a breaking story, then the top bar would change into red/yellow bar showing the story.

This ticker format is also used for all the other Indian CNBC channels.

The ticker is also variable during commercial breaks: if trading time is going on, then it keeps two-line ticker (but smaller); and at the rest of the time, it runs only the bottom bar of the new two-line ticker.

Like CNBC Europe and its CNBC Life programming block, the ticker does not appear during Class Life programming on weekends.
