Is there a “My Portfolio” link at the bottom of the Google Module? On mine there is and then I can add stocks and such.

I haven’t figured how to put the Finance Portfolio on my Google homepage. All I get is a dumb-down version that only show the current stock price for a a few stocks. It’s in no way close to the portfolio on Google Finance. Where the add-on for the portfolio?

It does support tabs but I don’t like keeping those things open in tabs. I already have 10-30 tabs open at any given time so being able to open a single website and then having quick access to all of the other services would be great.

Your browser doesn’t support tabs?

I can’t say that I ever really thought about it before but I think that you are onto something. Google should offer a lot of their services in tabs on the Personalized Homepage, such as Gmail. I’m sure that would attract a lot more users then. Maybe I’ll see if I can find an address to send some sort of recommendation.

It would be neat if I could great a tab in my Google Home page that would display the Google Finance Page inside a tab on my Google Home Page. I know and I have done this already, I can put my portfolio at my home page. Also, I wish it would have the ability to import a Quicken file so that you can have a history of all your investments.

I typically like to watch the top movers because they are probably going to peak and then drop back down. I definitely don't buy them when they are doing really well but just like you said I wait for the rebound after they have peaked.
