    How did it get changed in the first place. I didn't do anything.
    Need a way to revert to Yahoo Finance classic format immediately.

    Absolute disaster. On each Summary page for each trading symbol it used to tell you the number of shares you held of the of the company/etf/mutual fund, your dollar cost, % up or down, etc. Nowit is FUBAR. There is no time to sit down and write all that is wrong with this. This is just Sh!t. Total sh!t.

    The Classic View allows for more portfolio columns to be displayed on the screen. I have a large monitor and can easily zoom out to see 20+ columns at once. If you must keep the new format, please allow to either zoom in to show more columns without the stuff to the right or to click a button that will just show the portfolio comments. With the classic view, Yahoo had one of the best sites to monitor and research investments. The new view is difficult to use and puts Yahoo at a major disadvantage vs other options. Please consider bringing back the classic view or making the new view usable.

    How many users have to ask to bring back the Classic View before you bring it back? Usually the Customer is always right. Bring it back PLEASE!

  • Grey Tam commented  ·   ·  Report

    The layout is way to busy and the chart details are gone.
    The realtime volume density is very important for traders!!

    BRING THE OLD LAYOUT BACK!!

    There was a button to press and get back to Classic View. Just reactivate it please. I do not use Holdings and Performance and more. I need a table with a list of stocks, and the data for each stock on the table. The market data on the top was also very helpful (Dow, Oil, Gold, Yen, ^TNX ..).
    If possible, please let the user adjust the WIDTH of the columns, like in Excel.

    what genius thought that this change was positive. Bring back the Classic view!

    Chrome wants to close my Yahoo finance tab because it's slowing down my computer! Indexes no longer at top of page. Notification bell almost too small to see. I HATE the new page and am now starting to look at CNN as an alternative. This needs changed back pronto or you're going to lose me and a whole lot of other customers. Even without a paid subscription you're going to lose ad revenue!

    Please keep the classic view. The new layout is a complete disaster! Who thought it looks and functions well? Obviously no one that uses it. Looking for a new site.

    I have 15 columns in my custom view and only 8 of them are visible without scrolling to the right, and scroll bar is at the bottom of 100 stocks in my portfolio. No way to completely eliminate docked items to the right of screen to make more room. Less info that I care about is displayed on one screen. Zooming out with mouse does not improve the amount of data displayed, just the size of text. If forced to use this interface, I will need to find a more flexible tool.

    Please keep the old layout!!! I rely heavily on the format I customized for investing. I can't add "Most Active Small Cap Stocks" to my Portfolio and Markets because it's gone! I'm moving on from Yahoo Finance.

  • Julie J McKown commented  ·   ·  Report

    Agree. I would like to stay with My Yahoo, but if the Finance page is changed to the new layout, I intend to leave My Yahoo.

  • Robert A Jaegers commented  ·   ·  Report

    This new layout is not very good. At the right side of my screen there were ALL my holding and how they were doing. I did not have to go to the individual portfolios. Please keep everything AS IT WAS!!!-

  • Fred Mussel commented  ·   ·  Report

    Go back to the old layout. Can't use the new one. Badly designed.

  • Fred Mussel commented  ·   ·  Report

    Bring back the old layout which indicated, for each stock holding, in successive headings, the current price, the current increase or decrease by numbers not percentages, then the current profit or loss totals for each stock, followed by the price paid and number of shares. Drop the dumb "open" column. After these basics, show whatever you want. The old layout was perfect. The new one I can't use anymore. Thank you.

    Please keep the classic yahoo finance page active. The new format brings nothing. The daily and yearly range graphs/bars are cut off. From the standpoint of revenue the old format has just as much space for irrelevant advertisements. Why fix what works?

  • Z Mrz commented  ·   ·  Report

    I tried the new yahoo finance and here is what I have noticed:
    Critical Issues:
    1. CPU usage shoots up to 70%-100%
    2. Memory climbs to 70% or more
    3. Browser becomes unstable and crashes with many non responsive pages.
    4. Getting memory corruption alerts.
    GUI issues:
    1. On stock portfolio page, would love to minimize/or get rid of the right hand column containing exchange market data etc, takes up screen space.
    2. On individual stock page, same comment as above. Also I miss the Annual Revenue/Earnings display (only providing quarterly), the Company Profile, the Similar to company list.
    The new is a big step down, and currently unusable.
    Please keep the classic version.
