Segments

TheStreet.com
While print publications have long provided investors with news and information about finance, there are now some very good online-only sources of financial news.

TheStreet.com has become a well-respected source of information. And when waiting for the next day's paper can mean losing a fortune - getting the news as soon as it appears is important. The site provides regular market reports throughout the day and also a daily e-mail bulletin on the market.

Silicon Investor
If you are an investor, plenty of finance Web sites tell you things - but very few offer you, the investor, the chance to offer information back.

A site that focuses mostly on technology and biotech stocks, Silicon Investor is a forum for individual investors to share insights and information about the companies they are investing in.

JustQuotes
This small but comprehensive finance site will gather information on a particular stock for you from all over the Web. It also offers a huge set of investing-related links.

Microsoft Money 99
The latest versions of money-management software now have major on-line components. Through contacts with on-line services and sites they allow you to keep a firm eye on your investments.

Microsoft Money allows you to track your accounts, estimate your tax, and calculate all kinds of things like life insurance needs and mortgages. But it also allows you to go on-line to pay bills, track your investments, research new ones, and connect to just about any financial institution.

E*Trade
In 1992, E*Trade Securities, Inc., the first all-electronic brokerage, began to offer online investing services through America Online and CompuServe. Then, with the launch of its Web site in 1996, demand for E*Trade's services exploded.

E*Trade remains one of the most popular and most trusted online brokerages. Through it you can trade stocks, bonds, mutual funds, options, and run cash management accounts.
