Fox Business To Debut Larry Kudlow Show On Feb. 16

Fox Business Network (FBN) will debut a new weekday business program hosted by Fox News Media contributor and former National Economic Council Director Larry Kudlow on Tuesday, Feb. 16. The program will air weekdays live at 4 p.m. ET with an encore at 7 p.m. and feature closing market analysis as well as interviews with major industry leaders influencing Wall Street, Washington and business in America. Fox Business Tonight will continue in the 5 p.m. ET hour with rotating co-hosts for the foreseeable future.

Kudlow will examine the latest headlines and business trends, with an emphasis on the financial impact facing households and businesses across the country. The program will also feature interviews with industry titans and policymakers, along with roundtable discussions on the policies affecting both the domestic and global economies.

Most recently, Kudlow was the assistant for economic policy and director of National Economic Council under President Trump, where he coordinated the administration’s domestic and economic policy agenda. In this capacity, he helped create and implement a number of President Trump’s economic, tax and trade initiatives.

Prior to his role in the administration, Kudlow was a senior contributor for CNBC where he hosted a number of programs, including his signature post-market analysis show The Kudlow Report. A staple of CNBC since its founding in 1989, he also provided economic analysis across the network’s leading business programs, including regular appearances on Squawk Box.

Additionally, he was chief economist and senior managing director of then-global investment bank, securities trading and brokerage firm Bear Stearns. He got his start in finance as a junior financial analyst at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and later joined then Wall Street firm Paine Webber.

From 1981 to 1985, Kudlow was an associate director for economics and planning at the Office of Management and Budget during President Ronald Reagan’s first term in office. In this capacity, he contributed to the administration’s economic and budget policy.

Throughout his career, Kudlow has been a nationally syndicated columnist and served as senior editor of National Review magazine. He is also the author of two books, JFK and the Reagan Revolution: A Secret History of American Prosperity and American Abundance: The New Economic and Moral Prosperity.
