Over the past three weeks, I have been waking up religiously at 5:30.
Not to exercise, not to get ready for a morning- but to watch three musketeers tell us about the latest on the economy and on the business.
At the strike of 6, I am right in front of the TV, glued to what the three have in store for me- Joe, Carl and Becky provide a fascinating perspective on the world of business- in a manner that is engaging, fun and informative at the same time.
So what is it that I like about Squawk Box on CNBC, the only business show I tivo-
One- the three have an incredible understanding of the markets, the business fundamentals and the interconnections looking at both macro trends in terms of futures, currencies and commodities on the hand, and specific company results on the other.
Two- their style is conversational and never looks scripted- they feed off each other, and none of the three feel the need to dominate the show as they work so well together as a team.
Three- they are able to get the best in the business on their show as guests that lends incredible credibility to the show. Warren Buffet is a regular, and so is Jack Welch. And interestingly, Joe, Carl and becky interact with everyone, and I mean, everyone with great ease and comfort.
The show is informative and fast paced and I have found nothing better to start the morning in these turbulent times than the trio using their engaging style to get me to make sense of the world of business as it stands today and where it is headed.
It almost feels like I have three friends who give me a headstart in the world of business every single day of the week.
Wonder how I survived all these years without them!
