    The new format does not give enough information, bitcoin, moving stock tickers currencies etc. Seems like a bunch of articles, why change what works? The new Yahoo Finance does not work for me, I'll be switching my home page to CNBC.com.

    I'm ok with the new layout for news articles. But I'm not ok with the stock lists for portfolios and watchlists, daily highs, lows and so on. On a PC with a regular browser, the text is too small, it's too hard to read and the mini-graphs are more clutter than meaningful. The old data layout was better in all ways that matter to me.

    New layout is terrible! Only six symbols can be added at a time and you have to check boxes and then press add. There are no boxes to mark symbols to be deleted and format is terrible.
    It looks like someone in elementary school worked on it.

    Everybody hates the new yahoo finance, including me. Why change it? Google finance is better, but not great. I don't want to switch, but apparently i have no choice.

    Hate Hate Hate the new format. You never thought how it might disrupt very satisfied users of 10+ years of Yahoo. Why can't you offer an option to stay with the previous format...totally disruptive to my work flow how you have force this new format on us in the name of trying to get more eyeball minutes. You are going to lose my eyeballs completely if you don't change.

    Many months ago I stopped giving feedback when evaluating the "new version" because too many things were wrong. You simply cannot mention just about everything - it would be ridiculous.

    Guys, it's not a matter of taste. It's a blatant attempt to ruin a perfect product polished to perfection over decades. Just keep the both versions up and running in parallel (the backing database is anyway the same) - and you'll see yourself which version will prevail and will attract most of the users.

    I'm serious. It's not that we tried and didn't like how it looks. No, it's that we couldn't even make it show what we needed - no matter if it looked different or not. You can easily live with a new look, but you cannot live with a broken functionality. Those who implemented it definitely don't use this product themselves.

    YES!!! I can't stand the new layout. It's too cluttered, meanwhile information important to me is hidden away. I had to start looking for alternatives, building my google finance page as we speak.

    KEEP THE CLASSIC LAYOUT!

    The new layout for Yahoo Finance is horrible, It's too hard to read and find the info I need. Please do not discontinue the old classic version layout.

  • John Bender commented  ·   ·  Report

    New layout and organization is awful. Particularly dislike just about everything except perhaps the fact that my name is spelled correctly. Otherwise please stop trying to "fix" something that has until now worked perfectly fine.

  • Kevin Mccarthy commented  ·   ·  Report

    So the Community message boards still exits but a link to them is no longer included on the portfolio pages? I've run out of negative words to describe your re-design. Truly. Idiotic.

  • Rycidex Rycidex commented  ·   ·  Report

    just saw a threat on the main page "this version of yahoo finance is going away soon"
    .
    Then ill be leaving too.

  • Rafael Frankenberg commented  ·   ·  Report

    The new format looks awful. You clearly did not reimagine existing features. Not to mention, there is a slow lag with price fluctuations.

  • John David Lesher commented  ·   ·  Report

    The Options Pull down Calendar Menu is almost unusable. Please do not go live without fixing this. Also, the overall layout of the main page is very unreadable. The "squared out" article boxes are not pleasant to process visually. One article per line (like the old layout) would be preferable. Also,please put a header on the main page with current Major Market indices displayed that stays visible when you scroll

    Why on earth did Yahoo destroyed the old Finance layout as it was perfect for Watchlist, type of news requested, sport, World Stock markets, etc listed the subjects the reader wanted?
    The fatal news is that it is not possible to revert to the old, which is outrageous by Yahoos Management!
    I am now forced to build a new Watchlist with someone else, despite having used Yahoo for many years.

    Give me back MY.Yahoo I had it customized just the way I wanted it. Quit thinking you know what I want better than I do.

  • texas twister commented  ·   ·  Report

  • Jean Metairie commented  ·   ·  Report

    Hate the new format. Not sure I will stay on yahoo finance when the transition is completed.

  • Steve Kindell commented  ·   ·  Report

    I don't know who the bigger idiot is. The one who came up with this idiot design or the one who approved this idiot design.

  • mike mike commented  ·   ·  Report
