In responding to the list under Thing #3, it is important to include Google Finance. To be able to see the fluctuations in the prices of stocks and mutual funds visually is one of the many facets of Google Finance. You can compare and analyze your portfolio easily and obtain pertinent business news in a single, convenient location. You may still need to use print resources to obtain old stock price information, especially if the company has changed names. However, for an initial survey, it is hard to beat a free tool like Google Finance.
Google has made it very easy to study trends via their analytic tools and another resource worth checking out (for patrons or yourself) is Google Trends. It uses the same underlying engine as Google Finance, but it allows you to look at trends in the larger industries.
