Squawk On The Street - About The Show

About The Show

Squawk on the Street, which is seen at 9:00am ET, is broadcast live at the New York Stock Exchange. Mark Haines and Erin Burnett were the original co-anchors at the NYSE. Haines (the original host of Squawk Box), died May 24, 2011, 18 days after Burnett departed from CNBC (May 6, 2011) to host Outfront on CNN. David Faber (who also hosts and contributes to his "Faber Report" segments) reports from CNBC Global Headquarters, while Haines and Burnett were in the "Squawk Nest," or "Luxury Box" (as Haines called it) above the NYSE. Contributors include Bob Pisani (NYSE), Bertha Coombs, Scott Wapner (NASDAQ), Sharon Epperson (NYMEX) and Rick Santelli (CME Group).

On July 11, 2011, Squawk on the Street debuted an entirely new anchor team at the NYSE. Carl Quintanilla (previously the co-anchor of Squawk Box), Melissa Lee (anchor of Fast Money and Options Action) and Simon Hobbs were appointed as the new anchor team. Mad Money host Jim Cramer joins Quintanilla and Lee as a contributor for the first hour, with Hobbs joining Quintanilla and Lee as a third anchor for the duration. The following year (2012), David Faber moved from the network's Englewood Cliffs, NJ studio to a new trading-floor studio set (which replaced the old above-the-floor set that had been used since 2005) at the NYSE. The trading-floor studio set at the NYSE, which debuted in 2012, is shared with Closing Bell.

On April 1, 2013, Melissa Lee was removed from her anchoring duties on Squawk on the Street. She continues on as anchor of Fast Money and Options Action.
