Market stocks

Hi guys. So after I received the news of Sony being really bad, I went to a market stocks website, and I'm kind of liking it. I'm seeing a lot of companies that aren't as good as I was thinking and vice-versa. However the website I use has major malfunctions, so if you could provide me another it would be super.

And you guys? Do you also like to check on the economy once and then?

Pretty much, but that's not my point.

Although they are at the end of the day linked, there is really not as much correlation between financial markets and the micro/macro economies as you might think.

As for good, free websites that provide a macro picture of the financial markets and economy, try google.com/finance and finance.yahoo.com

Really? I wasn't aware that Sony was in the crapper. I need to get my head on straight.

They've had a loss the last 3 fiscal years. They are not insolvent or anything though. At least not yet.

Thanks, I'll use Google Finance.

Google Finance for me, if only because it's what I'm more used to. Though I do use both, along with many others.

They're both very good, thank you guys. Now I'll ask you a bigger thing. I don't really know how to see the status of the companies, I mean I can see if their good or bad, but I want to learn to analyse the situations with more depth. So if anyone could teach me a few basics, I would be thrilled. I never had economics in my life, I'm a humanities student.

Google is really the only site you need until you actually start investing. Then you can use the tools given to you when you open an account to start trading. I like Scottrade.

Economics is a mug's game.
