Analyzing the first week of the new “Wall Street Week”

Linette Lopez talked to some Wall Street pros about the first airing of “Wall Street Week,” which ran on Saturday after being dormant for a decade.

Lopez writes, “‘I like Gary [Kaminsky] a lot, and the producers know what they are doing. Anthony is probably doing what he was meant to be doing as a TV host, not a panelist or a market participant,’ said one a source familiar with Scaramucci’s time at CNBC. ‘The show should be successful as long as he can attract A-list guests.’

“And in its first week, WSW did attract the crème de la crème of Wall Street. ‘Bond king’ Jeff Gundlach did an extensive interview in which he explained the problems he sees developing in the junk-bond market. Charles Schwab strategist Liz Ann Sonders was also on hand.

“‘I was on the original show in 1987 and this show did a great job of copying and improving it,’ said Steve Kroll of investment firm Monness, Crespi, Hardt & Co., Inc. ‘Since there was little advertising on it — still the best-kept secret on business out there. Guests were great and I look forward to more stock ideas.’

“Inside CNBC the word is silence. The show is not discussed. Some insiders say it’s because CNBC doesn’t care; others say that it’s because CNBC reporters were forbidden from tweeting about the show or from going to the premiere party in New York City the Tuesday before it aired.”
