It has the deepest and highest quality data integration of any publicly available site.   I use it every day.&lt;p&gt;It has also been largely ignored for better part of a decade.   Three areas where Yahoo just fumbled the ball: 1) Portfolio tracking, 2) Message boards and 3) Monetization.   None of these have been upgraded in years.&lt;p&gt;Portfolio tracking is an exercise in good UI &amp;amp; UX.  Yahoo could and should have bought any number of good teams over the years that have built portfolio trackers.&lt;p&gt;Yahoo finance message boards have very low signal to noise ratio.   They should have either gone the reddit model of comments or even better, Yahoo should have bought Seeking Alpha a long time ago.   Alternatively, when Seeking Alpha began to grow, Yahoo should have built a competitive product.   Instead Yahoo let their message boards turn into a low value destination.&lt;p&gt;Monetization - this is just comically inept.  Visitors to finance sites have and care about their money.  They also tend to be older.   Some of the highest paid ads target these people: Credit cards, mortgages, health, travel, banking, personal loans, autos, etc.&lt;p&gt;Yahoo finance should have been the center of a massive business unit at Yahoo generating a substantial percentage of their revenue.&lt;p&gt;What went wrong?</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Yahoo Sale ‘Book’ Reveals Financial Meltdown and Big Bet on Mobile Voice Search</title><url>http://recode.net/2016/04/06/yahoo-sale-book-financial-meltdown/</url></story>
