Marissa Mayer Is Finally Updating Yahoo Finance, Though Today's Launch Has Been Delayed
The Wall Street Journal's Douglas MacMillan broke the news.
MacMillan says the new site will feature a personalized news feed - a big feature of many recent Yahoo site re-designs under CEO Marissa Mayer.
He also writes, "When the redesign goes live, visitors to Yahoo Finance will find a markets page that compares leading stock indexes and the day's biggest winners and losers, along with a portfolio tracker - powered by financial-data provider SigFig - for keeping quick tabs on the stocks people own."
We've heard Yahoo is poking around the startup world, seeing if it can buy a company to help it better aggregate news on Yahoo Finance - maybe with the help of users.
Yahoo Finance is a important brand for Yahoo. It's one of the few that isn't dependend on Yahoo email users for traffic. Sports is another big one.
