Suggestions
The feedback feature is a great idea, however, it is very hard to find even after using it several time. Finally found "Suggestions" in very small font. Don't you want feedback?

Do the people at YAHOO FINANCE stay up nights wondering how to make the experience even worse?
1) Quotes are difficult or impossible to get using the search feature. For example I typed in "MCD" and it wants to give me details on "M" or "MC"
2) Difficult to make changes to the portfolio, too many steps involved (ie: leave whatever screen you are in, go to "my holdings", click "add symbol", click "expand/collapse all" …..
3) Too many fake or distracting ads
4) It would be nice to be able to print out a chart
5) The "export" feature is glitchy at best
6) How can I turn off the "TRADE" feature? I DO NOT WANT…

Ticker Search Field
Recently, whenever I first type in a symbol into the ticker search field and hit "enter", it seems to always pull up the wrong company. I need to again type the symbol slowly to make sure the site finds the symbol before I hit enter. It seems the site is too slow to "lookup" the symbol in the suggested tickers that show below the search field, so even though I type the full, correct symbol that I want to view, the "suggested search" options that show haven't caught up to my typing. It's just a big annoyance that is somewhat…

Expand/Collapse All feature
Offer the option to permanently keep a stock list Expanded rather than always having to click on the feature.
BTW, this feature used to stay expanded without having to click on it when I viewed different lists.235th ranked -
sidebar
Market data sidebar where Most Recent, Portfolio, Most Actives (configurable via Customize link) -- my Most Recent now has "show all" at the bottom of a shortened list. Hate having to click that all the time to expand. Should be an option to truncate or show all always.

Yahoo Finance Events calendar
It's always been useful to copy the earnings calendar so I can match it up with those stocks I track, to know what day and time of day an earnings report will occur. But in the past week Yahoo has shifted the stock symbol from the rest of the data when it is copied to a spreadsheet. This is unnecessary and a total pain **********. Please return to the previous version of the earnings calendar and save the few remaining individual investors the extra effort that your change requires.

new layout for shares and cost columns is awful. no need for up/down counter
the very idea that one needs to move the number of shares or price by using an up/down counter to 'adjust' the values is insane... it also makes the numbers so small in the box as to be almost unreadable.
there's also far too much white space on the page, generally, now. makes all the info look like it's a mile away... dreadful redesign by someone who patently isn't using the site for investing and trading.

There is no "delete" option int the drop-down list to delete a portfolio. I have read all the articles in previous posts , but it still remains there is no "delete " option for the watchlist. Only my other portfolios.

VIEW MULTIPLE CHARTS AT ONCE
Bring Back the multiple chart feature where you can view multiple stocks at once, e.g., 5 day, 1month, 1 yr. with the technical indicators etc. Typing one stock at a time is a HUGE WASTE of time. You went from a computer to counting on fingers. PLEASE BRING THIS BACK!! We are back in the dark ages.

"Conversations" for individual stocks should be listed chronologically as submitted.
Under "Conversations" for individual stocks, I would suggest changing the "default" order from "Top Reactions" to "NEWEST reactions." I do believe most readers would appreciate Chronological Order.

Save custom view as default
I would like to save a "custom view" as my default view in Yahoo Finance. I found an earlier post about this marked as "completed" but I cannot find this in your help file. Please add this feature.
Also, in the same idea, when I type in a stock symbol, i would like to be able to set the small chart that comes up to the 5yr view vs daily that seems to be default. Please add this.

I would like to see the earnings table listed alphbetically, it's not easy to find a stock your looking for on your earnings pages.
alphabetize the earnings daily instead of random, make it easy to find the stock your looking for, not difficult.
