Job Description CNBC is looking for a sharp, insightful stock‑pick news writer who can uncover compelling investment ideas and react quickly to the news. The writer may update CNBC’s stock picks or launch new stories to explain changes in the investment environment. This role requires deep research, rigorous analysis of company financials and market trends, and conversations with leading analysts and investors.
