DARYN KAGAN, CNN ANCHOR: CNN financial correspondent on watching the markets. That's the subject of today's CNN 20.</s>ANNOUNCER: Bringing you the world for 20 years, this is CNN.</s>RHONDA ROWLAND, CNN FINANCIAL CORRESPONDENT (on camera): What I'm trying to do is to make sense out of moves that sometimes don't make sense on face value. It's a lot of somewhat technical information, and I'm trying to make that friendly and accessible and easily understood.</s>CHRISTINE ROMANS, CNN FINANCIAL CORRESPONDENT (on camera): Our goal was to be first and to be fast and to be right above all, and to tell people who watch CNN just what it's all about and what's happening.</s>ROWLAND: Dow 10,000. Three points away. It's getting noisy on this floor.</s>ROWLAND: There's always a lot of news, and we're just trying to decipher what's most interesting and which stocks are really moving on it.</s>ROMANS: We are talking to traders on the floor. We're following all of the wires. We're making calls to analysts and to companies.</s>ROWLAND: I get my information from talking to as many people as I can and trying to read every piece of information I get my hands on about the market.</s>ROMANS: It's controlled chaos. There's this constant rush of air as people are flowing by, running and screaming, and running to a post and trying to get a trade in. We try in particular not to talk up a market or talk down a market, but really be the voice of reason amid an awful lot of chaos that's going on there. It's a very interesting job.
