I love AI... just need it to be accurate
I use Yahoo Finance regularly to support my trading and portfolio management on Schwab. It’s one of my go-to resources for tracking stock prices, dividend schedules, and market news.
Recently, I tried the “Analyze with AI” feature on a Yahoo Finance stock chart. The report displayed the current stock price correctly at the top, but then quoted an outdated price as “current” within the body of the analysis. This inconsistency undermines trust in the data and could mislead users who rely on accurate, time-sensitive financial information.
There was no way to interact with this AI report so I went directly Gemini to chat. After raising the issue with the AI assistant (Gemini), it eventually provided a better analysis using more recent data. However, when I asked it to report the inconsistency to developers, it deflected and told me to find a feedback form myself.
I’m sharing this because I believe Yahoo Finance is a valuable resource, and features like “Analyze with AI” have great potential. But they need to uphold strong standards for data integrity and offer clearer ways for users to report issues directly.
Thank you for considering this feedback. I hope it helps improve the experience for others who rely on Yahoo Finance for tactical investing and real-time decision-making.
