The Schenectady Daily Gazette is cutting its two pages of printed stock listings and replacing them with the AP’s Money & Markets page, writes managing editor Judy Patrick.
Patrick writes, “With the debut of the Money & Markets package, we will stop printing the two full pages of stock and mutual fund tables that we now run.
“That listing won’t entirely disappear from our pages. The new daily Money & Markets page will include detailed price information on 45 stocks of local interest, such as GE and TrustCo. And our traditional two full pages of stocks and mutual fund listings will continue to be published once a week in our Sunday business section.
“And up-to-date stock and mutual fund prices, along with other financial data and the latest business news, are already available to our readers on our Web site.
“With the Money & Markets package, The Gazette will be able to put financial news in context in a way that two pages of stock tables cannot. Our page will give you the numbers you’ve come to expect about the financial markets and go beyond those numbers, with graphics, charts and concise explanations, to give the reader a better understanding of the news.”
