The autoplay videos and other junk just reduce functionality and will likely reduce engagement (at least for me)
Yahoo Finance is in recent iterations painfully slow to load and react because it's laden with all sorts of stuff in which I have no interest. Maybe I'm in the minority of users on this but I feel that slowing down access to desired and sought-out content (say, a chart) by cramming in unwanted content (say, an autoplay interview with some random CEO) , you are degrading the experience to the point that I'm considering Google or another provider as my go-to.
