One of Jackie’s milestones for CNBC was when she was the person in charge of market activities in the Middle East for a CNBC international broadcast. She interviewed influential business leaders and the government officials. Her group of interview subjects included the OPEC secretary General Abdalla El-Fars, the Saudi Arabian Finance Minister Ibrahim Al-Assaf, and Israeli Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz. Jackie was proud that the network trusted her with such an important project. Getting insight into the MIddle Eastern market wasn’t only of significant interest to people in finance, it also attracted the ears of people in politics. Analyzing the Middle Eastern market was important for the financial market because of fossil fuels. With the rising environmental costs of producing fossil fuels, it was a priority to ask some of the region’s financial leaders what they about the about the future of energy production. With an economy so dependent on fossil fuels, it would be unlikely that they would want the market for fossil fuels to shrink.
Jackie Deangelis reported on Arab Spring and the impact it has on the global market. She provided detailed coverage for the uprising in Bahrain. Even though the revolution was not financial in nature, the result of it did have an impact on the financial market. Jackie must have felt conflict when she reported on the protests. On one hand, she has a job as a financial analyst to objective report on the financial implications. On the other hand, she has to keep her emotions inside as she shows the oppressed are being treated. It was speculated that Arab Spring would severely damage the financial market in the region. Too much political unrest would prevent the market and the resources from functioning properly. If things didn’t resolve themselves, outside forces such as foreign countries would have to come in and further complicate things. The uncertainty of the financial market was why CNBC assigned Jackie to cover it. Viewers around the United States were interested to see how the revolution would affect their trading in the futures market. Jackie had to be strong and present cold hard financial information in the wake of a bloody series of protests.
She also worked as the Director of Strategic Programming and Development for CNBC. While working in this role, she was instrumental in the creation of a new financial series. She was also a factor in producing exclusive network specials for the Secretary of Treasury Timothy Geithner, financial guru Warren Buffett and former President Bill Clinton.
Jackie likes to keep details about her life very private as she does not like people to know too much about her. Details about marriages, children, and family background are not known because Jackie doesn’t like to volunteer any of the intimate details.
