Where to get breaking news

Hi,
Can anyone tell me where I can get breaking financial news on line?
Thanks,
Carmi

Bloomberg TV online. Bloomberg.com

Thanks!

Is there only one radio and one Tv station that cover every market : stocks, forex etc - or I could use what type of market I would like to watch ? and what type radio or TV is better/you use?

Blommberg TV is best on your TV. If you listen on the Internet it is slower.

A text news feed is worth having. Check out MNI:

mni.acquiremedia.com

Actually, if you trade the EURO session, CNBC has Worldwide Exchange from 4AM-6AM (EST) that has the best forex market coverage and commentary/analysis available anywhere. It far surpasses Bloomberg. Plus they give UK/E12 data releases.

yeah , i also look at CNBC , but rarely understand more than 10%

Bloomberg TV is my favourite....In my opinion, they are the best out there...Unbiased in most of the cases, getting you live with all 3 session of the world 5 days a week with great commentaries during the day and during the weekend & of course, always breaking news....They broadcast things which can't be easily accessed through the internet...For example, Trichet speaks in Berlin, Bloomberg is there & they broadcast parts of it live and comment on what's he saying...You can't get this easily over the internet, unless you are watching Bloomberg.com of course


Thanks,

Real time info. Event status & analysis within 1-3 minutes. Not bad!

Mudd,

Curious...I was trying to compare...bloomberg versus the info we get on FXSol...I sorta like the streaming news thing...so that when news breaks, we just get it in our platform. How much more quickly does bloomberg TV present the info (and I mean all of it down to the MNI reports, etc)?

I watched FXSol during NFP one time and the NFP came out on FXSol about 1-2 minutes after 7:30 on the dot. That was more than enough time to actually do something with it (not that I did...but...I would suspect it would be enough time).

I guess, I'm just asking for a comparison between the news feed we get on FXSol versus stuff we would get on bloomberg...I just wonder how much more "breaking" and tailored it is when you're watching a program or worse, a ticker...you know what I mean? I would hope for some sort of news feed that would download the titles to a platform and I could read the ones that would deal with, say, the EUR, GBP or USD...but then sometimes, I wouldn't mind seeing breaking news for NZD or JPY...which is why having stream to a console would seem more effective to me than trying to watch a program, unless you have a particular way you watch bloomberg that might be useful (like always keep your eye on the streamer...it shows the support and resistance levels...or something like that).

That's an interesting topic for a thread...effective news TV watching...:-)

But I'm all for getting news faster.

i find the news service from oanda quite fast, the news are on your screen in matter of seconds after the anouncment

I also find Bloomberg to be the best to watch...They cover all the sessions with up to the second information and news...

when watching those tv programmes... i do not catch what they mean and what effects do they have on the market...

is there any way i can learn how to pick up news and correlate with forex/economics?

My experience is that Bloomberg's online audio/video feed is unreliable -- it's down as often as it's up and running for me. Maybe that's just my internet connection, but everything else I stream works well enough. I could watch it on TV, but setting up a TV doesn't really work well in my office setup. Can anyone recommend any other streaming audio breaking financial news channels on the internet with a consistent feed?

Aha! I just tried out Bloomberg's online radio without the video feed, and it's coming through cleanly without interruptions. This is what I was looking for.
