2.Track Stocks Over Time with Google Finance


Google Now does a pretty good job if you only want to get information on how a stock is doing for today. However, if you're looking into the health of a company to determine which ones to invest in, Google Finance does a great job of collecting as much of the information you need as possible. On a basic level, Google Finance will show you how a stock has performed over time, the company's market cap, EPS, P/E, and a whole bunch of other important figures you don't understand as much as you pretend to. If you really want to drill down, you can also check a company's financials—that is, all of the public financial documents the company is required by law to publish—to get a more detailed look at how they make money. If you do any investing on the stock market, the web app should be a primary research tool.
