Sacramento Bee to change stock listings again

Armando Acuña, the public editor of the Sacramento Bee, writes Sunday that the paper will change its stock listings once again, but hasn’t decided what it’s going to do.Â

Acuña writes, “Now The Bee is on the verge of redesigning its stock page, with one substantial difference: It has solicited readers’ opinions.

“For several days, the Business section has published a mail-in survey asking readers to rate the usefulness of items now listed, such as stock recaps, stocks of local interest, mutual funds, gainers and losers, commodities, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, etc.

“What would you add? readers were asked.

“Several hundred have mailed or faxed their responses.

“So far, according to Business Editor Cathie Anderson, there’s little interest in continuing stocks of local interest as a separate listing or coverage of metals and commodities markets. What people want more of are listings of mutual funds and individual stocks.

“Anderson said after the results are compiled (the deadline was last Friday), she will meet with senior editors and they will decide what to do.”
