CNBC President Mark Hoffman said he was "always the unflappable pro." Traders on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange observed a spontaneous moment of silence when they learned of his death. In a statement, the NYSE remarked: "He was an outstanding professional and pioneer in business journalism, and we are proud that his legacy includes years of excellence in reporting from the NYSE."
