Andre Jackson, business editor for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, announced in Saturday’s paper that it would be cutting its stock listings and mutual fund listings beginning Tuesday.
Jackson wrote, “We’ll continue to provide our current package of stock and mutual fund listings once each quarter in the Investors Guide.
“We’re expanding our Internet offerings of financial information on STLtoday.com. We’re adding interactive features to make it easier for you to get detailed data and news about financial markets and your personal holdings.
“We’re offering a toll-free telephone service, 1-800-555-8355, that you can use to get stock quotes. This number will appear on the markets page each day.
“Our daily market report will contain an expanded commodities report. Readers have requested more of this data.
“These changes are necessary, given industry trends and changes in newspaper economics and reader behavior. We take seriously our responsibility to provide coverage of business news and are working hard to present the best possible package of news and data each day.”
