Power Lunch is a television business news program on CNBC, airing between 12 noon. and 2 p.m. Eastern Time. It is presented by Tyler Mathisen, Brian Sullivan, Michelle Caruso-Cabrera and Melissa Lee. Bill Griffeth anchored the program alone from 1996 to 2002. Caruso-Cabrera joined the program as Griffeth's original co-presented from February 4, 2002, to December 5, 2003, before being replaced by Sue Herera starting on December 8, 2003. Caruso-Cabrera and Dennis Kneale appeared on the show regularly in their respective analyst capacities until both became full co-presenters in 2009. Mathisen joined the program in late 2009, after Griffeth's leave of absence began. Power Lunch used to air for two hours (noon to 2 ET) until June 7, 2010, when it moved to 1 ET and had its running time cut in half, from 2 hours to 1 hour, to make room for The Strategy Session at noon ET and the Fast Money Halftime Report at 12:30 ET. The show became a 2-hour program once again on February 9, 2015, as the running time is now from 1-3 p.m. ET, replacing Street Signs, which had its final episode on February 6, 2015. Sullivan and Amanda Drury, both of whom previously co-anchored Street Signs, joined Power Lunch February 9, along with current Fast Money and Options Action host Melissa Lee. They replace Herera, who left Power Lunch three days earlier. Caruso-Cabrera rejoined the program for her third stint as co-presenter on January 19, 2016 after Drury's departure from CNBC US.

On October 13, 2014, Power Lunch was launched in full 1080i high-definition as part of CNBC's network-wide switch to a full 16:9 letterbox format.
