Google Puts another nail into Yahoo Finance

Today I noticed Google Finance appearing in the serps.

When I searched Google for GOOG I used to get a graph (that linked to Yahoo Finance and 3 links I think (3 maybe 4) .....

NOW the Graph goes to Google Finance and I get link to : Google Finance, Yahoo Finance, MSN Money, MarketWatch, CNN Money & Reuters.

so the Question : which SE's has the Market Guys...

One of the old framed links

One of the old framed links was to eTrade's Clearstation. That service became irrelevant (and no longer even an option) when Google started offering forums on Google finance.

Too slow

The damn graphs come down here at a snails pace compared to Yahoo, but I'm temporarily on BellSouth DSL in Florida which is crap.

I still use Yahoo Finance but Google Finance has some interesting information when you want to do a bit more research.

Moderated forums? Did I read that?

If they offer some level of moderation in their forums and IF they can control the number of multi-id members hiding behind proxies, etc. then it might actually work. Yahoo is a cesspool of pump-and-dump types, many using dozens if not 100s of screen names to do their work. Yahoo Finance boards are for entertainment only.

I posted to Google Finance. I had to be approved first, but the approval was fast.
