Nifty Finance Site

It's no surprise that Google would offer a nifty financial site. This one, Google Finance, offers an in depth guide to companies, stocks, mutual funds, currencies and the like. It also contains links to relevant news releases, trends and sector summaries. To view international companies, there are similar sites like Google Finance U.K., Canada, etc.

As a long-term buy-and-hold investor, I do not advocate daily checking of stocks, portfolios nor performance. This site could be useful on a macro level for a LMF4HMW reader looking for information and knowledge about finance and the markets. Or on a micro level to view a particular index's performance over time, such as the MSCI EAFE or S&P 500.

In honor of tonight's celebration and the New Year we're welcoming tomorrow, I recommend Cristalino, a delicious Cava from Spain that offers a tremendous value.
