I'm addicted to YAHOO! Finance

by gracielor , Apr 20 '08
Pros: Practical news, free portfolio tracking
Cons: None
About three years ago, I searched the web for a free site where I could track my portfolio's performance. I eventually found my way to Yahoo's finance page and have probably revisited a thousand times since. I mainly use Yahoo Finance for two things. ...

One Stop Financial Shopping

by doubleojames , Apr 06 '08
Pros: Great main page, portfolio monitoring, and entertaining finance articles
Cons: Portfolio entries are a little old-school compared to the rest of the website
I’ve used a number of different sources for financial research and Yahoo Finance continues to outshine the rest. When it comes to a single source that one would want to check daily for finance related data, it continues to be the most comprehensive ...

Why I would pay for Yahoo! Finance

by mrisch mrisch is a Lead on Epinions in Personal Finance, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Aug 26 '01
Pros: Has everything you could ever need
Cons: Can it last forever?
Come now, as we explore the exciting world of financial websites. By far the best free site (and probably best among pay sites) is the Yahoo! finance site. You can get anything, everything, and then some at finance.yahoo.com. The site is so good, I...

I have been using Yahoo Finance for a couple of years now. I find it is a great resource for information on Mutual Funds and Stocks, as well as Financial News.

Need to know the scoop? quote.yahoo.com

by sportsweek , Jul 06 '01
Pros: The fastest, easiest way to get financial information.
Cons: Quotes are not "real-time"
Quote.yahoo.com is a web address that anyone who follows the markets closely should know and use frequently. It is by far the quickest and easiest way to find pertinent information relating to both the markets and individual stocks.

Yahoo Finance Will Keep You a Step Ahead

by Bryan_Carey Bryan_Carey is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Personal Finance, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, Jun 02 '01
Pros: Good information on finance, personalized services
Cons: Appearance isn't the best; some services carry a fee
Stock quotes, corporate financial data, company news….these things can now be found all over the world wide web. Financial web services are in great abundance in cyberspace. Most of them offer basically the same information, in a different format. This...

There are many web portals offering basic financial information, as well as sites dedicated to financial information. While I do use a few websites for financial information, Yahoo Finance is my primary source of information.

We Should Pay for What Yahoo Gives Away

by renewal2 , Mar 21 '01
Pros: Yahoo is an exemplary site that should not go down.
Cons: To do this, Yahoo would have to become even more reliable.
I'm sure Yahoo has perfectly good planners and visionaries in its corporate digs so what I am about to say can
probably go down as the superfluous at best.

Or heretical.

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

I Use Yahoo..... But Only for Their Real Time Quotes

by spriteguy , Feb 04 '01
Pros: real time quotes, fast server, reliable
Cons: very bad message boards, real time quotes only from Nasdaq
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...

Contest, news, quotes and more.

by bryan47112 , Dec 28 '00
Pros: Quotes, information.
Cons: None that i have found.



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.
