Qatar is a relatively small oil producer. It is unlikely that they could affect the price of oil or create real economic distress for Saudi Arabia.

Completely agree on the charting percentage, and the options chains.
Thanks for the feedback on the font and news line. For the news line, do you mean that you'd prefer more text to show up in the news section?
We're looking into that. Thanks for being really helpful about it.
I agree ;)
Even before Google Finance was shut down, I've wanted to work on this. Given that Google Finance has largely faded, I think we have an opening for https://bravos.co to enter the market.
It's coming from Crypto Compare right now. We've been told to look into Coinige. Definitely open to feedback here!
Yeah, IEX is helpful for many of the stocks, and we use a few other APIs to supplement.
We don't have that now, since we're prioritizing other things.
Hopefully we can include that down the road.
(And thank you! Appreciate you taking a look.)
This is a super helpful set of points. I've always had similar questions to your AAPL/NFLX/UA examples. I think the insight here, is that brokerage accounts and most sites treat your "list" as binary - you either "own"/"track" something or you don't.
In reality, you're tracking a lot of opportunities, and every decision you've made represents several different scenarios. It should be as easy to look back on a scenario (AAPL versus NFLX+UA performance over the last 3 years) as it is to see the performance of any of those specific securities.
You should also be able to easily see that your "biotech" list outperformed your actual portfolio, or that your "tech" list is outperforming your "European companies" list (or whatever else).
We probably won't go too deep into backtesting various strategies, as there is powerful software for that today, but we definitely can support the analyses in this thread.
Super helpful feedback, thank you.
Thank you! I think I just fixed it, but we have work to do on components like that.
Yeah, this is awesome. We absolutely need to have that.
I appreciate the points about ISIN and tickers. We'll need to be thoughtful about how we handle that, and definitely should support more than just the U.S. exchange tickers.
Agreed. It's shockingly not supported by ReactiveSearch, which we're using right now. We'll be replacing the entire search experience as soon as possible.
Possibly - I'm curious what you had in mind? Could you tell me any more about the use case?
That's great to know, thank you. We'll prioritize being able to show the charts with and without dividends reinvested.
Ah good call, thank you. We've optimized some things on the app, but have a lot more to do.
Super helpful thanks. We're definitely early, and we don't have the resources yet that Google had to throw at GF!
Fundamental data is coming soon, for sure. We'll show you 10 years of historical data (annual and quarterly) for income statement, cash flows, and balance sheet.
Screening will come too, although it's not requested as often so we haven't prioritized it. The API, mobile apps, and improved charting are next for us.
You're right - there's always a lot of corner cases and "handling" that you have to do for financial data. But it's very possible.
You're basically saying you should be able to enter that you bought 100 shares AAPL in 2004 at $15... what is your total return?
(We only have watchlists today, but we're designing more of the features that are "portfolio"-like and this is great feedback.)
Yeah, that should be possible with a moderate amount of work. We probably won't support it very soon, but I would start with Intrinio, which is relatively easy to work with compared to some of the bigger providers:

Feel free to PM me if I can help any further.
Thanks a ton for the thoughtful feedback, hugely appreciated.
We have much better charting coming soon. You'll be able to compare different securities, log scale, bar charts. URL params for things like the range are a good idea.
(And sorry, what do you mean by leave the app? Clicking on a company somewhere should take you to bravos.co/AAPL, no?
Yeah - they're going to be really cool, fast, and useful.
Hi - I'm the creator of https://bravos.co, a replacement for Google Finance. (I didn't have anything to do with this article being posted.)
I actually left my job two months ago to work on this full-time... Google Finance used to be a "home page tab" for me and it was just killing me that I couldn't find a good alternative. Bravos.co features a clean interface for tracking public companies, cryptocurrencies, and even private companies. The platform pulls in news, social conversations, and key financial data, and has modern features like a "Dark Mode" and mobile site. APIs, native apps, notifications, and more are coming soon.
We have a 2 minute video walkthrough here: https://youtu.be/gpQpCK9Ydl0
We would love to get your thoughts - we want to build this based on community feedback.
Appreciate it. Our data is coming from a variety of sources, and changing as we develop the alpha version of the site. Currently we use IEX for real-time data, Barchart for historical time series data, CryptoCompare for cryptocurrency data, and various sources including CityFALCON for news and social data.
I'm excited to introduce Bravos.co, which is a replacement for the (now shut down) Google Finance. It features a clean interface for tracking public companies, cryptocurrencies, and private companies.

Looking forward to your thoughts questions - thanks all.
