CNBC Europe Ticker
CNBC Europe also broadcasts a similar ticker to the ticker broadcast on CNBC US. 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 US ticker prior to December 2005, the full stock names have always been displayed for European shares, not symbols. US companies do however use the same symbols as CNBC US (the full names are now displayed also). The information for the European ticker is provided by Thomson Reuters (formerly by Moneyline Telerate), and this is regularly promoted on the ticker(appr. every two minutes on upper band). During the re-launch on March 1, 2010, the green and red colours of the ticker text to show the stock's direction have disappeared however the arrows remain coloured. Since March 2010, the ticker is three-band. Now, top and middle bands of the ticker are displayed in the programme Money in Motion's reairing.

Famous quotes containing the words europe and/or ticker:
“Television is an excellent system when one has nothing to lose, as is the case with a nomadic and rootless country like the United States, but in Europe the affect of television is that of a bulldozer which reduces culture to the lowest possible denominator.”
—Marc Fumaroli (b. 1932)
“Most people aren’t appreciated enough, and the bravest things we do in our lives are usually known only to ourselves. No one throws ticker tape on the man who chose to be faithful to his wife, on the lawyer who didn’t take the drug money, or the daughter who held her tongue again and again. All this anonymous heroism.”
—Peggy Noonan (b. 1950)
