CNBC’s Fast Money will be live today but instead of Dylan Ratigan it will be Erin Burnett hosting the show…

Even though it’s a holiday week, there is still “Fast Money” to be made. CNBC’s “Fast Money” will be on live at 5 PM ET, as usual, from the Nasdaq MarketSite street level studio in New York’s Times Square. Sitting in two nights this week for Dylan Ratigan, the host of “Fast Money,” will be CNBC’s Erin Burnett and CNBC’s Becky Quick will handle the duties one night. “Fast Money” is rebroadcast on CNBC at 8 PM ET.
Dylan returns Monday, New Year’s Eve.
