  • Retired investor

    MarketWatch was great when it started out. The quality of articles were good, interesting and insightful. Sadly much of the content has shown to be opinion and not based on fact. MarketWatch needs to get back to its core specialty of reporting facts and meaningful insights that really add value.
    Come on MarketWatch stop getting involved with political discussions and report on financial content that matters.

  • Doesn’t let me register

    Why
  • Market indices

    Market indices take a long time to update. They show old data for quite a while and can be quite disconnected from data shown in charts which is really poor. Never used to be the case.
  • Business News with a Slant

    MarketWatch’s page is second to none. But you do consistently get business news with a slant. If the market goes down, it will consistently be reported as Trump’s fault. When it does go up it will never be reported to his credit, but rather spite of him. Once you understand that Trump never does anything good, you will begin to understand the market the way MarketWatch wants you to see it. A great page, but it is reporting with an agenda, and by this point in time only the totally blind are still drinking that kool-aid.

  • Run...Far Away and Stay Away

    I was a loyal market watch user till about 5 months ago. The app has constant loading problems on the watchlist and often can’t even retrieve it. When it does come up it will not load any information or asks you to log in....when already logged in. This still does nothing to help. I have reached out to support who suggested I restart the app.....🤨. Since I tried that the first 2 seconds it didn’t work, we then tried clearing the data. This didn’t work either. Also tried reinstalling and no luck. The website isn’t much better either and often crashes on me. Overall this thing is a once great tool turned piece of garbage with 0 to negligible support. Oh and it took them over a week to get back to my first inquiry. I called and then was told someone will be with me soon. A week later I received an email that solved nothing. So if you’d like to invest and then play the “Hope nothing is wrong” game, go with market watch for tracking. 3/10, D+ app

  • Doesn’t let me register. App needs fixing

    See above
  • Marvellous Market Watch

    This website is the very best for news and new ideas generation for ‘The Market’
  • Cannot sign into the app

    Signed up online using my google account information. The app does not allow you to sign on through google, so I cannot access my account.

    Was really hoping for good things with this app. Will have to find another way to get my information
  • Fix Watchlist

    I have always been content with MarketWatch. It’s not the best market resource there is, but it’s simple and easy to use. The main reason I use marketwatch is to check my different watchlists. Well, for the past two weeks, watchlist doesn’t even work. I’ve logged in and logged out plenty of times on the app, every once in a while it will show my watchlist stocks again only for them to be gone again the next time I open the app. Yesterday I deleted MarketWatch and redownloaded it to try and solve the problem once and for all. It worked yesterday, but sure enough I open the app this morning and none of my stocks are displaying in any of my watchlists. Given that this is the majority of my use for MarketWatch, I have rated it 1 Star and will leave this rating until it is fixed. I will also be using Yahoo Finance instead, and may delete MarketWatch as it is now unnecessary space on my phone. If this is fixed I will probably amend this decision, but until then I have no use for MarketWatch.

  • Great tools, poor content

    Great for a quick snapshot of the market. Chart tools are great. Articles are all sensationalist, doomsday garbage.
