What makes Google Finance’s stocks portfolio very useful for me is their News Ticker.Īt the bottom of my list of stocks, Google finance provides latest news relevant to my stock holdings or watch list. But today we can track even mutual funds using google finance. Till couple of years back, Google Finance India was not supporting mutual funds. Portfolio tracker can be used to view stocks, ETF’s and funds & track their performance. Google Finance India provides us two most valuable products: Individuals whose portfolio consists of direct stocks, ETF, mutual funds, cash etc can use Google Finance India portfolio builder to record transactions and also track performance. I will personally recommend a portfolio builder to all investors as it also gives great visualisation of whether portfolio is sufficiently diversified or not.

Portfolio builder also gives you great insights about stock market in terms of recommendations and current market news.

You can track performance of each of your investments.

It keeps your investment records very organised.

Why to ignore its usage?įew quick advantages of using a portfolio builder are these: Small investors must not shy away from using a portfolio builder. Name of asset, cost of purchase, time of purchase, date of selling etc are information that an investors must record judiciously.Ī portfolio builder like Google Finance India is a must have tool for all investors. It is also essential to keep a record of it. Just buying assets (stocks, funds) is not enough. Portfolio management is very important for individual investors. The details that can be compared are like dividend yield, valuation ratios and other business fundamentals. The comparison not only allows me to compare its price graphically but other details are also tabulated well for comparison. These days I used their stock “compare” a lot. When I first came to know about Google Finance, the thing that impressed me was its tool that allows one to compare stocks. It is this combination of portfolio building, and stock screening that makes Google Finance the best service provider in its segment.Įarlier, Google Finance was mainly meant for United States of America.īut gradually, Google Finance has extended its services to India, China, France, Germany, Italy, United Kingdom, Australia, Singapore etc (to 37 countries of the world). Google Finance not only builds portfolio, but it also provides an amazing stock screener. Till few years back I was using moneycontrol portfolio builder.īut ever since I had my hands on Google Finance, I find no other portfolio builder as good as this.
