CNBC US has a new look today, its first since 2010. The previous look had a very long run, compared to the 2000s when CNBC seemed to rebrand on an almost annual basis.

Of note with this is the return of the "stack" to its original home at the bottom right hand corner of the screen, after nearly a decade as a bar at the top of the screen.

Looks a lot nicer and cleaner - I was not a fan of the font they have been using for the past few years! Not sure whether Europe and Asia have also rebranded.

New clock and stack, but otherwise the same as previous.

In New Zealand we only so far have a change of font in the ticker, the new clock box and the stack. The graphics that used to all be in its on area on the right side of the screen have disappeared. From that link it looks awful. The font [or variants of] is becoming an all too common TV font and its not overly that great.

From that link it looks like a major step back. The previous package always came across as modern an fresh, no matter how many years it had been used for.

edit: Just watched this stream, http://www.giniko.com/watch.php?id=69 I'm not a fan of it at all!

Gotham does seem to be used all over the place, that's true.

Yes, and Asia as well (For the second time this year IIRC)

I can't speak for Asia, but Europe have only adopted the new clock and stack - other elements (opening titles, music, Lower thirds and Hotboards) remain as previous.

Same in Asia Pacific.
