Pennsylvania paper adds AP's "Money & Markets" page

The Beaver County Times is changing its stock listings and some other features in its business section, adding the “Money & Markets” page introduced by the Associated Press last year.

A short story in the paper stated, “Today, a new Money & Markets page brings analysis and perspective to business news and consumer trends with stories, charts and graphs.

“Local business news will be highlighted in a briefs package.

“Stock tables will be limited to those of select local interest.

“Today, more people track stocks in real time online, where they can get up-to-the-minute information.

“Newspapers, which get but one chance to post stock reports, cannot compete with the Internet, which has the capability of reflecting constant market fluctuations almost instantaneously.

“What newspapers can provide, however, is more detailed analysis and context — what we do best.”
