Oz Pearlman, a mentalist and magician, made a surprise appearance on the trading and investing-focused news program “Squawk Box” on CNBC, leaving the hosts speechless and shaking with amazement.
Appearing uninvited, Pearlman strolled onto the set, flanking the anchors’ seats and astonishing the presenters, Joe Kernen, Rebecca Quick, and Carl Quintanilla. He began by accurately naming the winners of a series of high-stakes trades proposed by the hosts, using a series of complex formulas that left the audience stunned.
The mentalist then proceeded to retrieve a series of confidential investment strategies from the minds of each host, noticing details that would be impossible for the average individual to know, such as specific trade numbers and exact dates. Pearlman further demonstrated his impressive mind-reading abilities by guessing the thoughts of a randomly selected member of the audience, revealing precise information about their investments and financial decisions.
Throughout the segment, the “Squawk Box” hosts were left visibly stunned, flabbergasted, and even reduced to stammering and gasping for words, as their minds struggled to comprehend the mentalist’s uncanny abilities. The program’s usually boisterous and confident atmosphere was replaced with an air of awestruck quietness, with many viewers describing the scene as eerily “surreal.”
As the segment concluded, Pearlman vanished as suddenly as he appeared, leaving the hosts and the studio audience in a state of collective bewilderment and amazement, wondering how an individual could possess such extraordinary abilities.
