Google's Stock Data Service Improved

Google Finance is a service developed by Google that lets you view information about North American stocks, funds and a lot of news in the financial category. It can be very useful for all interested users because it displays graphic charts and rankings that help you read information with ease.

The service was released 6 months ago with a small number of functions, the company mentioning that Google Finance is in early stage beta tests and it is quite limited.

Today, Google announced that Google Finance was improved with a lot of functions, saying that it allows you to view currency information or information about a specific sector in the U.S.

Vivi Costache, Software Engineer, Google Finance team, posted a message on the official blog to mention all the features added to the service.
