Sarasota paper puts stocks on Web

The Sarasota Herald-Tribune has moved its stock and mutual fund listings to its Web site, writes executive editor Mike Connelly.

Connelly writes, “We held off as long as we could, but the recession has forced the Herald-Tribune to join many other U.S. newspapers in cutting stock listings.

“At the same time, we have expanded www.heraldtribune.com/stocks, offering a series of tools to track your portfolio, explore investing opportunities and monitor market trends.

“Starting today, the newspaper will publish a daily market summary instead of issue-by-issue stock and mutual-fund listings.

“The summary lists the 175 most widely held stocks, the 138 largest mutual funds and 26 market indices, along with interest rate and foreign exchange highlights.”
