On March 21, 2006, Google, Inc. launched the new Google Finance website. The service features business and enterprise headlines for many corporations including their financial decisions and major news events. Stock information is available, as are Adobe Flash-based stock price charts.
Google launched a revamped version of their finance site on December 12, 2006, featuring a new homepage design which lets users see currency information, sector performance for the U.S. market, and a listing of top market movers along with the relevant and important news of the day. A top movers section was also added, based on popularity determined by Google Trends. The upgrade also featured charts containing up to 40 years of data for U.S. stocks, and richer portfolio options.
Every once in a while, Google will have a glitch in their system. Just yesterday, Apple Inc. (aapl) was showing a $4.47 gain during trading hours and a $4.50 loss in after hours trading. This was known not to be true. Though rare, we have caught some of their mistakes in screenshots and thought we would share them with you. So sit back and enjoy a lighthearted few photos from Google Finance.
