Pros: Has everything you could ever need
Cons: Can it last forever?

Pros: Yahoo is an exemplary site that should not go down.
Cons: To do this, Yahoo would have to become even more reliable.
Summary: I'm sure Yahoo has perfectly good planners and visionaries in its corporate digs so what I am about to say can

This is inspired to some extent by horror stories of ... read more

Pros: real time quotes, fast server, reliable
Cons: very bad message boards, real time quotes only from Nasdaq
Summary: As a person living in Canada and interested in Canadian stocks, I saw no use for Yahoo finance for one main reason. That reason was that Yahoo did not have a big focus on Canadian stocks. The message boards have very few posters compared to Canadian ... read more

Pros: Quotes, information.
Cons: None that i have found.
Summary:
Yahoo may not be real-time, but unless you are a day-trader you probably don't need real-time quotes anyway. Yahoo has quotes on almost an stock, mutual fund or other form of investment that you can think of.
