Finance is still usable, but has been getting worse.
For example, they used to have "basic charts" that were clear and easy to comprehend. Then they removed that feature (but kept the link in the sidebar for many months). The remaining "interactive charts" are IMO not as easy to comprehend. Also they are missing features. E.g. with the old charts it was easy to quickly see when historical stock splits had occurred. With the new charts you have to hover over each big "S" icon.
It all smacks of 2nd rate people putting in a 3rd rate effort, just to show they're doing something. But what they're doing is by no means an improvement to what was there previously.
Edit: forgot to mention that, compared to Yahoo, Google Finance is a pathetic joke. It's a night and day difference. It's like Google is actively trying to be bad.
Surely there must be a finance portal that's better. I wouldn't mind paying for something good.
