I realize that Karl has put a list of "useful links for investors" atop the General page, but I thought I might throw out a few more useful links here. Of course, KD is free to incorporate these into the "big list" if he so chooses, or just pin this at the top of the Newbie forum... And remember, these are just the links I use, so this list is not intended to be either "all-inclusive" or the "best" links. And I don't think there are too many (if any) duplicates with Karl's list (although I admit, I didn't check all of them). (Note that all free sites that offer stock/option quotes do so on a delayed basis, usually 15-20 minutes, sometimes longer. Index quotes are typically real-time.) (EDIT: New additions appear at or near the top of the list, unless they are added to an existing section. ALSO - if you find that one of these links no longer functions, please notify me via PM so I can update or delete it.)
