New Mexico newspaper cuts stock listings

The Las Cruces Sun-News in Mexico is cutting its stock listings, according to a short story in Wednesday’s paper.

The story stated, “We hope the information provided to our business readers will help you get a comprehensive, quick picture of the day’s market activity.

“No longer will we run complete listings for mutual funds and other stocks. Rather, we will provide a ‘Market in Review’ with highlights of the day’s trades and a short listing of stocks of local interest. Indeed, if there’s a particular listing you would like to see in the daily print report, e-mail us at lpeerman@lcsun-news.com. This will allow us to remain the news and information leader in our community.

“As a continuing service to you, complete stocks and mutual funds reports can be found on our Web site at lcsun-news.com. In addition to market information, you will find a complete report of the day’s business news, including analysis and commentary.”
