New Wikinvest.com Beta Site Launches
Investors should head over to the new Wikinvest Beta site which launched yesterday and give it a test run. The new features and data presentation are beyond impressive and useful. I am personally a huge Yahoo Finance fan but am thinking Yahoo might now need to update its research pages with a fresh look.
What makes the new Wikinvest site stand out is how it presents its data. Take for example company McDonald’s (MCD). Everyone can look up McDonald’s on Reuters or another site and find out its earnings, sales, debt, etc. but Wikinvest takes that data and then compares it to the rest of the industry or itself over a duration of 5, 10, etc. years. Furthermore all charts are easily embeddable. Here are two comparing company operated restaurants and highlighting operating expenses over the last 10 years:
Another cool feature is displaying visually to see what Analysts recommendations are for that given stock. You can see visually a comparison of the number of buys, holds, sells to the rest of the industry.
Overall we were very impressed with the new Beta site and look forward to seeing how the final product looks. Now we simply need to figure out how to sort through all of this data…
Head over to beta.wikinvest.com and check it out for yourself.
Nice post. I can’t find historical price valuation ratios on there which would be beneficial.

Will send over to our contact as feedback, thanks DV!
Hi DV,
At the moment, we have historical valuation ratios back to 2005 for most companies. For example, check out the P/E for GOOG — http://www.wikinvest.com/stock/Google_(GOOG)/Data?ref=topnav#keyMetrics. If you’re looking for more than that, shoot me an email (patrick [at] wikinvest.com) and we’ll see if there’s another way we can offer this information or a product improvement we could make.
Thanks!
Oh yeah my bad, I see it. 10-15 year price valuation charts would be so valuable !!!
