Street Signs is a television program that airs on CNBC at 2:00pm ET. It originally aired on CNBC from 1996 to 2002 before it was revived on December 8, 2003.

Previously hosted by Ron Insana (1996-2006), and currently hosted by Erin Burnett (co-anchor of another CNBC program, Squawk on the Street), this program brings viewers to the heart of the day's market action. In addition, Wall Street's most respected names join the program to offer their perspective.

During the second half of Street Signs, Arthur Cashin, director of floor operations for UBS, gives his own take on the day's market action.

Stop Trading!

At 2:40pm ET, Jim Cramer (host of another CNBC program, Mad Money) presents the "Stop Trading!" segment. In this segment, which formerly aired on Closing Bell prior to September 11, 2006, Burnett asks Cramer about the stocks making news, and also asks him for his take on the day's markets. After the segment, a disclaimer is shown as Street Signs comes back from a commercial break.
