CNBC adds new market report

With the stock market off to its worst year-to-date start since 1991 — a recession year — CNBC introduced Monday a series of new special reports, “The CNBC Edge,” to help viewers.

While there is debate among economic experts about whether or not the U.S. is technically in a recession — or headed into one — it is clear investors and business leaders alike have never been in more need of the fast, accurate, actionable, and unbiased information.

CNBC senior vice president for business news Jonathan Wald said in a release, “The ‘CNBC Edge’ will show our viewers there is always money to be made despite the volatility of the market.”

“The CNBC Edge” will be seen throughout CNBC’s business day.
