Yahoo FinanceReviews 92

The site and the app seem to work fine...
The scary part is what goes on in message boards.
Well most know to not put faith in these forums I can't help but observe, this is what I have concerns about.
The so called pumpers and shorts are actually the same, just depends on what way they want the stock to move.
Many post are deleted by the moderator if does not suite there view.
Seems possible that the pumper/shorts actually work for the site as they seem to have admin rights to the message board.
One cycle I have noticed recently is the common pumping of stocks prior to Earnings Report, then once the reports are public and the stock slides, the pumpers/shorts reset with different names/profiles.

All in all I understand why the message boards get a bad rap, seems their purpose is primarily to manipulate the stocks for the purpose financial gain.

Big surprise to most? Probably not lol not a bad place to find news or PR but that's the only positive for these forums that I can see.

Beware and as always do you own DD, lots of folks here eager to motivate you for their own purpose.

Yahoo now has Argus promoting recommendations through Argus at the top by the trend sheet. This is a very biased statement when often Argus is wrong. People buying and selling stocks want a consensus input. I have seen a good number of Argus recommendations that are way off. However, if the first thing the person see's from Argus is a Buy or Sell they act on this instead of valued research. It creates panic and havoc in the market space. It also impacts companies based on false input that should be unbiased.

Apparently Argus is paying Yahoo a lot of cash to get their pathetic opinion at the top of the page.

I use the apple phone app. The stock page is good to very good. The general business yahoo finance articles are biased and a joke. Not a balanced look at the market. Keep politics out of your biases. Keep it up and I'll start a page elsewhere. It's a hassle, as I have been here a long time, but reading this garbage in place of a simi balance look a the world of business wastes my time. I'm not sure when this changed but I think it was a year or 2 after the election. Crazy world, picking sides is not an intellectual position.

There is a private lender who is giving out genuine loans at a very cheap rate, I got my loan of 30,000$ from him and the interest rate was very convenient for me, that is why I have used this medium to inform you all about this lender.
If you need an type of loan kindly contact *******@gmail.com or you can text or call *******042 if you are in USA.

He offers loan from 3000$ - 500,000$ so contact him today for you to get your loan.

I used to use Yahoo Finance extensive in the past when they had the old format around. Since the switchover, I moved to Google Finance (which is now dead as well) and other comparable sites (not many out there). This eventually focued me to use the Finance websites lesser overall (which was a good thing in a way) but now as I want to become more active, I have tried using Yahoo Finance again and really truggle to focus on areas I would like to focus or I would think and investor would want to focus on when they fire up the website. Navigation through the relevant info is quite difficult. With all the ads thrown in (all around the page) it is extremely difficult to remain focused. Usefull info seems to get burried under a think layer of adverts. It plain and simple doesn't feel like a Finance website anymore but rather a medium for advertisers to sell their products. I understand its a free website, but shouldn't they also be worried keeping to the purpose of thier offering for which they get traffic in the first place.

Bottomline: I am actively looking for a more usefull alternative. The day I find it, I will switch at an eye-blink. Very dissapointed to see Yahoo Finance end up like this.
