Yahoo Finance

  I just come to say the same. Yahoo Finance is the best alternative for Google Finance.

  Just tried it and despite being a little cluttered it's pretty good.

  I've always heard great things about Yahoo Finance and I keep the Android app as of recently. They notify me with videos / articles about what's going on in finance which I find handy, it's not too much of it thankfully.

  And what strikes me as a finance professional is that I can get live stock prices from the free yahoo finance website, whereas my expensive bloomberg terminal only has 15min delayed stock prices...

    Don't say that too loud. Most of the exchanges grant uses of real time quotes for non-finance-professionals only.

    If you require it surely you can get it if you pay for that?
    • cm2187 9y ago
      Yeah but the base license for the terminal is like £15,000 a year. With that you would expect to get at least what I get for free on yahoo finance.

        My team shares a BB, so I can walk over to the machine and get 15min stale prices.

  I would never have guessed I would migrate from a google product to a yahoo product. What an odd thing this is.
  • nikcub 9y ago
    There are plenty of gaps in what Google do that Yahoo! do or did better (stocks, sports, news, weather, chat, groups etc). It's a shame they focused on competing against exactly where Google were the strongest.

      I am not sure which company the they is in your second sentence. I think you mean Yahoo and they do have some good services. I haven just always used google products (remember iGoogle?) I have set up yahoo finance and it is lovely but it is just a (small) pain to jump to another site/app ect.
