Tacoma paper changing stock listings

David Zeeck, the executive editor of the Tacoma News-Tribune, writes Sunday about changes to the paper’s stock listings starting this week.

Zeeck wrote, “Youâ€™ll still see five ‘Highlights of the Day’ topping the page as they do now. But other elements will change.

“‘We added a look at the most important financial news with graphic representations of stock prices and economic indicators,’ said Marce Edwards, our business editor. ‘We added interest rate information and expanded the Treasuries listings.’

“Weâ€™ll still have the most-active stocks from the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq, and weâ€™ll still list Northwest stocks.

“‘This at-a-glance presentation allows us to get more information about earnings reports and economic data in the paper each day,’ Edwards said.
