I personally find the progress bar very distracting and don't read Bloomberg articles any more because of it.
It's something to do with me always using mouse scrolling that jerks the screen by set increments, and that then animates the bar but it takes 250 ms or something, so I scroll, my eyes attempt to find the new position in the article, the bar animates, my eye gets drawn up to the bar instead.
It's so bad for me I find myself angry and frustrated whenever I read a Bloomberg article and it took me a while to realise it was something as simple and silly as a visuay distracting automated progress bar that is just a bit too slow to animate.
