Power Lunch can refer to two CNBC programmes: the program screened on CNBC US, and the programme Power Lunch Europe screened on CNBC Europe, as well as a now-cancelled CNBC Asia programme, Power Lunch Asia.
[edit] Power Lunch
The original US Power Lunch programme airs on CNBC between noon and 2 p.m., Eastern Time. It is presented by Bill Griffeth and Sue Herera.
At the halfway point of the US show's first hour, Bob O'Brien from Dow Jones Newswires highlights a winning or losing sector of the day's trading.
[edit] Power Lunch Europe
Power Lunch Europe airs on CNBC Europe between 11 a.m. and noon, though it shares little with its US counterpart other than its name. It is presented by Louisa Bojesen on Mondays and Tuesdays, and by Patricia Szarvas from Wednesday to Friday. The first half of the programme is a segment called Halftime Report, presented from the CNBC Europe video wall. This details the major trades from each of the major European bourses (the London Stock Exchange, Euronext Paris, and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange), as well as several of the minor exchanges, commodity and bond trading, and United States futures exchanges. The second half, presented from the desk, consists of interviews. The programme is regularly extended to two hours on days of European Central Bank and Bank of England interest rate announcements (and on those occasions, pre-empts the first hour of Squawk Box). The theme music used by Power Lunch Europe is that which was previously used by US Power Lunch prior to December 2005.
[edit] Power Lunch Asia
There formerly existed also a Power Lunch Asia programme on CNBC Asia. In 2003 this was merged with Asia Market Watch, which now runs for three hours.
