Baltimore Sun cuts stock listings further

The Baltimore Sun, which has cut the stock listings printed in the business section twice in the past three years, is taking another whack at them, according to a short note from Bernie Kohn, assistant managing editor of business.

Kohn wrote, “The Sun’s weekly markets package is being moved online, where it will appear each Saturday on baltimoresun.com’s Business page rather than in the print edition.

“The Business section Tuesday through Saturday will contain one page of listings, emphasizing local stocks and mutual funds. Readers will find broader weekly stock and mutual fund listings in the same format as they appeared in the newspaper at baltimoresun.com/marketspdf.”

Later, he noted, “This move is consistent with moves by most major newspapers, including The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times, to move large parts of their markets information online.”
