FT Alphaville to launch U.S. version of popular “Markets Live”

FT Alphaville will launch Friday the first U.S. edition of its popular British real-time service, “Markets Live.”

“Markets Live” is a real-time service in which our commentators offer their views on moves and news in the markets in a live streaming-media format

The U.S. version will be different from the daily chat hosted by Neil Hume and Bryce Elder in London.

It will take place every Friday at 10 a.m. EST and will be hosted by FT Alphaville’s New York correspondents, Cardiff Garcia and John McDermott.

As with the British edition, Garcia and McDermott will look at share price moves and other financial asset news, dip into analyst commentary, and engage in the usual banter with the Rabble on the Right.

They’ll also include a recap of each week’s economic indicators and survey the week’s big economic events from around the world. The conversation will frequently feature FT colleagues in Europe, along with business journalists from FT Tilt for emerging markets analysis.
