Yahoo! Finance Reviews 17

Yahoo Finance manages to be both outdated and broken at the same time, which is honestly impressive in 2026.

The platform completely fails at basic functionality for European and Nordic stocks. Listings randomly disappear, SEK-traded shares are either missing or incorrectly mapped, and searching by company name or ISIN is a guessing game with no consistent logic.

This is not a “minor bug” problem — it’s structural negligence. If a stock isn’t a US mega cap, Yahoo Finance treats it like it doesn’t exist. Charts freeze, tickers are wrong, currencies are mismatched, and there is zero transparency about data coverage.

What’s most frustrating is that Yahoo looks like a serious financial platform, but behaves like a half-maintained demo site. It creates false confidence while quietly serving incomplete or incorrect data.

If you’re a European investor, especially in small or mid-cap stocks, this platform is unreliable to the point of being unusable. At best it’s a news headline aggregator. At worst, it actively misleads users.

Yahoo Finance urgently needs to either fix its market coverage or be honest about its limitations. Right now it does neither.

There articles look like they are all written by AI and even then they are all majorty have the wrong info.

I read an article about nbhash.com and decided to invest some money, i've lost it all.
Although nbhash.com are the scammers, Yahoo Finance must take some responsibility for advertising them.
The least they could do is remove the articles.

Yahoo Finance does a pretty good job of being able to track my portfolios and interest list without actually having to log into my brokerage accounts.

Criticism of Trump did seem to get my account suspended for a while, but perhaps that was just an error.

Yahoo has a non-sensical bot that "moderates" it's finance message board. The most innocuous of comments are rejected, and then rejected on appeal as well, after "review" by a "moderator" (even though both rejections are immediate. Such offensive comments like: "this stock is good".

one of the good site to track stock
do not use there anything else
only watching stocks and news

After watching their LIVE Market Board for several months, all I can say is it's very out of date from reality. The write ups they put on there are utter rubbish and cast doom on pretty much everything at the end of each stock right up.
Lots of fake scam reviews from investors who obviously trying to influence the markets for their own gains.
I have photo evidence of this and now keeping a diary of evidence on this company and how they are trying to bend / scam the markets with all means possible. Ai / and multiple million dollar investors / so called analystic poor reporting.
Do Not trust this company with Stocks and Shares information.
2.4 rating out of 5 isn't good and there will be fake reports for connected Yahoo employee's in here. You can spot them a mile off cos there very short and sweet, with little or no content in them.

Very bad. I’ve been scammed by services advertised on Yahoo Finance a couple of times! Do not trust their advice or AI Trading Products!

I previously switched back to the classic view, only to find myself again redirected to the Version 2 view, and the option to switch back can no longer be found. Not only is it harder to read, when I try to scroll down the page, the site blanks everything out so I can't see anything at all. The tickers for the major stock indices appear and then disappear. There was nothing at all wrong with the old format, which I probably used for more than 25 years, but Yahoo found a way to turn a once-good web site into junk. (This is the US page, though, not the UK page.)

Update; the above problem is with Chrome, it seems to work OK in Brave.

This site is absolutely shocking now. I used to be able to see all the columns of my portfolio across a single page, but now I have to scroll across to see the last few lines. Why do they feel that making changes just for the sake of it is good, when everything was working well before? Also, the instructions on how to change to "classic" view are a nonsense. I also will be looking for an alternative website.

I've used Yahoo finance for years, this new format change is dreadful and now looking for somewhere else. What use to be easy to read fundamentals is now small font on the right side. Also rolled out changes to Yahoo so can publish even more ads. Adios!

I have used for years. There are occasional problems but overall it is a pretty good way to track stocks & get information. It usually works well although at times slower loading due to all the ad stuff on each page. On the non-positive side:
A recently revamped website was worse, harder to find things, get information but it has improved quite a bit in the last year.
At times the arithmetic is (still) incorrect.
We are now able to contact Help after searching to find it. The Yahoo Customer Service is great with fast accurate replies. When the problem is a bit different they also respond to those email promptly.
I am somewhat old school & I do business with companies that actually have some respect for the people they do business with and their time. Yahoo has been doing that so I changed my Review from a 3 to 5 star situation. Not perfect but they try and do a really good job now.

A must-have app for tracking stock investments and financial news

Worst algorithms ever. Worst developers ever.

Trying to get anything to work, or post any friendly comment on their terrible platforms is a mind-bogglingly frustrating experience.

They're the bottom of the barrel when it comes to software and services.

Owned by Apollo's propaganda machine.

Excellent support-platform for financial observations and for decision taking! Thanks, Yahoo.
