Forbes.com Stock Market News, Stock Quotes, and World Markets - Forbes.com

About Forbes

Forbes.com was founded in 1993 and goes steady as an important source for reliable market news and financial information. The site is specifically popular in the U.S., Canada, Singapore, and South Africa.

The site features the following sections with plentiful subdivisions:

  • Business
  • Investing
  • Tech
  • Entrepreneurs
  • Op/Ed (Economics, Politics, Law, World Affairs, etc.)
  • Leadership
  • Lifestyle
  • Lists (Largest…, Best…, Most Powerful…, etc.)

News Value

No special news section. Market and forex analytics is published periodically and may be found via Search function.

Site’s Special

Elaborated subtopics of the site. For example, in ‘Investing’ section there are such subdivisions, as:

- Commodities & Currencies;
- Markets;
- Stocks;
- Taxes, and many more.

Site Design and Ease of Navigation 

The design is convenient and user-friendly.

High Points

The site features diverse business information of high quality and often straight from the source.

Low Points

The site is mostly US-oriented, and for the first-time visitors from Europe and Asia it might take some effort to find Europe/Asia site subdivisions, as the relevant links are placed on top of the page, but in tiny script.

The main sections of the site are too broad, so a visitor looking for a specific issue might have some complications. However, the site’s search is a great help to find themed articles, information on the business leaders, and stock quotes.
