Review on Yahoo Finance by Stephen Toluwani
A place for exploring investment options
I still consider myself a newbie in the world of investment, not just in Cryptocurrencies but also traditional finance. Making wrong financial assessment of an instrument has made me count my losses in hundreds of dollars and has pushed me to the edge of searching for options that will help my inexperience and shapen me into being better at what I want to do. This is where Yahoo finance comes in. The platform which has for so long, served people with financial related news and helped in making analysis became my go-to tool for my investment decisions. Now, with Yahoo Finance, I get to see financial news which acts as a means of me making my fundamental analysis and also the platform presents charting tools for use in making technical analysis. This combination of both has really helped me from making the mistakes I made in my early days. The daily news bit being sent to me as newsletter has also been a wonderful addition to what I get on Yahoo Finance
Having an account with Yahoo finance can also make the ease of monitoring ones investment portfolio easier, I simply select my shares or cryptocurrencies and the amounts held and then, it tracks them for me. Many people has always been taken aback by platforms like this which makes or provides some kind of premium subscription kind of services but Yahoo Finance provides this all free with no intrusive ads on its website. I have really enjoyed using the platform, though most of its tactical given financial advice gets a not-a-financial-advice tag on it, I have seen most of it to be helpful. It's a great service platform and I so much recommend it's use.
