Gonna derail this a bit, but what the fck is up with stock indicators in these 'news' posts? Seeing more and more of that lately.
Who even cares about that: https://i.imgur.com/TI5T7ah.png https://i.imgur.com/TI5T7ah.png when they came to read a story such as this. Is this some useless bs marketing move or am I missing something.
Please explain.
- Mayzie 10y agoIt's Forbes. That's their industry and target audience.
- gear54rus 10y agoSo maybe someone from that industry can comment if that helps anyone at all?
- newacct23 10y agoIf there is news about a company and it's recent it might be interesting information how the stock of the company is affected? It's useful information for the people that normally read Forbes.
- Dylan16807 10y agoIt makes sense for breaking news. Looking at a single day's stock movement doesn't make any sense for a discussion of a product that came out months ago.
- whamlastxmas 10y agoIt's not supposed to be helpful, it's an interstitial ad. The point is to make you click on it so you get sent to a feed of stories about Facebook and another page full of ads.
