    Its apparent the morons in charge at Yahoo clearly dont give a **** about the people who use their page becasue ya'll keep ******* it up. It doesnt take a genius to see your patrons dont want it by simply scrolling down. Really glad you ********* all my stock and mutual fund trackers when you changed the page too. Super excited to have to go fix them all again. If I was your boss, I'd publicly shame all of you before finring each and everyone

    Put it back to the way it was.
    The new format is horrible for a trader. The classic version allowed a single look to understand stock status while the new version requires too much scrolling and important trading data is blocked by side windows without the choice of removing them.
    Especially missed is the visual daily high low slider.
    P.S. I use an iPad exclusively

    Another fine example of fixing something that isn't broken.

    Besides not being able to see all the information I need without multiple scrolls, it is very slow loading, still has other bugs and none of the information on the right column is helpful for me. I would just use my brokerage accounts platform but I don't want to be logged on to it all day like I have with Yahoo Finance for the past 15 years. Please reconsider and give us the option to go back to Classic. I have given this new program a try and have even asked questions on the help tab but it just doesn't have what I am looking for.

    The new layout is horrible and the Revert to classic button has disappeared. I can't live with this. Goodbye.

    It feels ( on a PC at least ) that the new version's portfolio tracker(s) is written for novice's. There is so much wasted real estate on the screen (on the left & right) and If you have too many columns there is no way to pan left & right. It works (panning) fine on my Android tablet but no way to pan on a PC. I suggest moving (or removing) the Quote window to the top (or bottom) of the portfolio along with the "US, Europe, Asia, Rates, etc” window back to the top ( or removing it completely from Portfolios as I never need this functionality in portfolios. That would free up a lot of landscape, as approximately half of the screen is wasted in "Portfolio's" to things that are of no interest to me while using portfolio's on a PC. As I read a lot of these posts I can see that many people's complaints seem to be related to Portfolio issues. And while you are at it, dump the giraffe with it's head in a hole when filling out "Holdings, New issue purchase's". It makes the application appear to be written by/for children. It doesn't exactly generate a feeling of diligence or professionalism relative to a financial application (fine for - even funny) in other apps, but makes me a bit less than confident about the focus of the software developer (speed, security, functionality) being my essential points of interest when my financial well being is concerned.

    i agree everybody find another site

    If you're looking for less eyeballs on the site, you've succeeded. I can no longer use this exclusively. Now, I usually take a peek in the morning and after markets close. It obviously can't keep up with a live market because it slows down the whole page. Best part is that nobody seems to care. Maybe the advertisers will once they see that not as many people are using the platform. Lots of wasted space and display of information that I don't care about. No options to set my display. Could do several things easily on the old platform (reordering stocks, seeing my whole custom view without have to scroll all the way to the right to see it) that become a challenge on the new platform. Don't know what the developers were thinking, but it really sucks and obvious that Yahoo doesn't care.

    Now no longer have Yahoo Finance as an open tab and rarely use Yahoo Finance. All the other business sites thank Yahoo.

    Previous layout of Yhoo Finance was much better.

  • Corey Harper commented  ·   ·  Report

    Bring back the classic view - the new layout is horrible, unusable, as you have reviewed in the previous post with 655 comments

  • Corey Harper commented  ·   ·  Report

    Did yahoo delete a post that had 655 comments about how horrible the new design is?

  • Loren Fiske commented  ·   ·  Report

    On the "Classic" version all you had to do to sort your portfolios fields (like any self respecting spreadsheet or database was to select the column you want to sort by, click the header click sort then click save - done. Now you have to click reorder, manually drag the row you want to move and manually drag the row down or up (one at a time) then click done. Wow - not to good when you are tracking 50 + issues. The Yahoo finance version may work perfectly on an Apple or Android phone, but not on a PC. Often speed is of the essence when making a trade, and none of these changes are directed at making this application any faster, I pray Yahoo is listening to us (at least PC based users). In all fairness, some of the features are good, but overall the new version has me looking for a better solution. I will gladly pay a monthly/yearly fee to be allowed access to the "Classic" version as that would take care of any issues I have.

    Bring back the classic view the current lay out sucks. If not, I will move onto another site.

  • Glen Wooten commented  ·   ·  Report

    Whoever came up with the new layout should be terminated. It does not "elevate the experience." It is cluttered like a hoarders house.

  • James Sera commented  ·   ·  Report

    Too busy and cluttered. Main video is hidden below the first page, indexes are no longer across the top and the page keeps going on and on and on....
