The Money Wheel
Encyclopedia
The Money Wheel was a business news television program
aired on weekdays on the CNBC
network from its inception in 1989 until 1998. Initially, The Money Wheel covered almost all of the channel's business day hours, airing continuously from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. ET each day. The show's hours were later cut back to 10 a.m. to 12 noon and 2 to 3 p.m. ET as other programs were introduced to the schedule. The show gave viewers the latest market action on Wall Street
as the trading day progressed.
The Money Wheel was hosted by many anchors of CNBC, including Ted David
, Felicia Taylor
, Bill Griffeth
, Sue Herera
, Ron Insana
, Terry Keenan
, John Stehr
and Kevin McCullough.
Regular segments included Taking Stock where viewers could phone-in and ask the guest analysts' recommendations on certain stocks.
As a result of CNBC's alliance with Dow Jones, the show was renamed Market Watch
in the morning and was replaced by an extended Street Signs
in the afternoon. At the time, most segments remained the same.
