Got Something To Say?

[Lee Brodie]

We'd love to hear from you!! Feel free to post messages here and I'll check back from time to time.

As some of you might know, I read every e-mail and message that you send me at "Fast Money" because what you have to say really matters to us.

I can tell this community cares about the show tremendously.

I'll check back soon or pay me a visit at FastMoney.cnbc.com

Warm regards,
Lee Brodie

Here is everyone's chance to get their opinions and comments heard by the producer of Fast Money! Let's give them something to chew on!

Welcome to the forum Mr. Brodie. If you look back through the posts you'll find what is of interest to the folks here in general. The forum is skewed towards new investors/traders (probably right in your most coveted demographic) and many are quite unafraid to let you know what they are thinking. I wish I had the time to catch your show more often, I enjoy the format. Good luck.

I dont know why Tim Strazzizi is not on the show any longer but I wish he was back. IMO he was the sharpest person on the show. I haven't watched your show as much since his departure.

Bring back Strazzini and try to make the show less focused on Eric Bolling, seems every show starts and centers around his opinions. Keep up the interviews with the CEO's, they bring great insight into the business that the public would otherwise have a hard time getting. How about a Saturday show to compete with Foxnews???

[Svenwulf]

is this the same producer who visited thierry's other board pre merger? we gave some good feed back over there.

bolling was already starting to bother, but najarian makes it totally unwatchable. was that the first guitar he ever held the night the activision analyst was on the show? maybe he thinks he has a shot after vana white retires? adami is still the man, but if mackie worked a bit less on his snappy wit, and more on his trades, he could give him a run. i like the guest traders, the more the merrier, imo. fenerman (sp?) seems like a money maker.

the little spots you folks have are great, like the ratigan reports, quicker than the ticker/ fast fires, and my personal favorite: happy 52 week high. also, i have to say i do really like ratigan as the anchor. continued success with the show to you!

[Svenwulf]

why is bolling always off nights they do fast fire, like last friday? the few times he is there, he never says he is wrong.. cost averaging korean steel? i do like the new tim, from what i saw of him. and dylan going for the conan o'brien gig? good on him if he is serious and lands it.

I like Fast Money because it usually explores a company or industry in more depth than other CNBC shows. And its panel members have more credibility with me.

One problem is that each show covers too many stocks. Look at the summary of the stock picks posted here daily. Gosh, there are too many stocks to really research, and you get the impression that these aren't serious ideas.

Yet, I've watch a couple of ideas I've heard on the show really take off, and the bears on SBUX have been correct so far.

It would be helpful to have a solid technical analysis of each stock and the market, not just a flimsy chart that says nothing. Look at not only daily, but weekly and monthly price action. Look at volume, relative strength, a/c, macd. Look at valuations such peg, p/cf, p/s as well as pe. And look at the options markets, what people could be doing with spreads, leaps, etc.

I just think CNBC is so TV.

Tell the fill-in guy, Tim Seymour, to stop chewing gum while he is on TV. that was horrible last Friday can't a PA walk over and tell him to spit that out. The other solution would be to just stop having him on.

I love the show, but don't like the "grade the trade" section that is a "fast forward" for me everytime.

[dochesgriff]

I am not tuning in to see Ratigan try out to replace Craig Ferguson. Tell him to stop imitating Letterman and just do the show. In the past I loved the show because they covered so much ground. Now they waste time making jokes and only get to half of the stuff they normally cover. While Dylan has been a great host for the show, his inside financial jokes will not go over well in the mainstream. Keep the jokes quick and spread out and the show will move on, otherwise I will be moving on.

[dochesgriff]

I hope Mr. Brodie is still reading this thread from time to time. I realize that from time to time we have to have a sub for Dylan, but now we are down to the 5th string. Michelle Lee was horrible tonight and we must find another moderator. Please tell me she will not be here all week. I realize that you are trying to put in another woman, but that is not the best choice. Erin is the best sub, and Becky can manage quite nicely, but Melissa Francis is already too far, and now we have Lee, come on. Put Mark Haynes on there or Carl, but please not Melissa Lee. She was lost most of the time and could never recap a topic. Every time she got to the bottom line she would ask for help like she had not even listened.

I look forward to seeing the show every night, but was very disappointed tonight.

By the way I also saw Seymour on High Net Worth playing the drums...who knew. Although I new he was hiding some long hair back there.

i say we backslap the endeavor within a machine bitten wooden congloomerate. only hippos and tigers can see the views of fans so the great depression can force a red sea vacuum in the forest of noloy

Did someone piss in your beer?

[dochesgriff]

:bawling: She's back again tonight?!?!?!?

[Lee Brodie]

Hi Everyone -

Thanks for all the great feedback. It's been a little less than a year since we started this dialogue and I wanted you to know that I'm still reading.

Warm regards,

The show continues to be the only show I must TIVO everyday. I truly enjoy the option talk from Najarian and don't even miss Bolling like I thought I would. I think this combo of Macke, Adami, K-Fine, and Najarian is the best. Great job with putting this show together every night. I enjoy the chart guys like Carter and would love to see them more often.

[dochesgriff]

Great to see Carter on tonight.

[dochesgriff]

Enough with the Fast and Furious. It takes too long and Friday there was not time for the Final Trade, which is my favorite part. They already cover most of those topics during the show so there is no need to recap.

Fast Money is the only financial show I DVR everyday. I really like DR as the host, his charisma carries the show, I especailly notice it when he is out and one of the money honeys (Francis, Burnett) sits in as the host.

Since Bolling left Adami is my fav. His wit and humor matched with DR mix up the show well. I wish there was more info on him though. Is he an independent trader now? I just recently have seen disclosures for him.

Macke is the most arrogant of the bunch, followed closely by Najarian. The Lone Wolf does know the consumer sector so I think he is an asset to the show. He has pretty good one liners too.

Najarian is the options expert but sometimes he goes into advanced trading concepts too much and too fast for the average viewer and DR has to Trade School him. He also talks too much! He recommends way more than others because he won't shut up!

K-Fine is not aggressive enough for the show I feel. She basically only gives her opinion when DR asks her. I would like to have Tim Seynour replace her. She comments are so so, and is basically just boring to watch.

Tim Seymour is my fav sit in or regular guest. He really knows emerging & int'l mkts as well as int'l economics and adds that aspect to the show.

I'm really glad the segment of the show when Hank Greenberg would debate the trader's calls is gone. I was actually embarassed for Greenberg sometimes because it seemed like he lost the arguments almost all the time.

Overall, I think it is the best daily financial news show on tv. If anything, it is a great way to keep up with the markets.
