False news
May 10, 2021

Market watch is given out false news regarding the Israeli and Palestinians in Jerusalem. All other news articles are saying the same thing that Israelis are attacking the Muslim in the mosque while they were worshiping in the month of Ramadan but MarketWatch news was saying Palestinians are attacking (what with stones) no one can see guns in the Palestinian hands. Please if you can't get your story right and trying to spread lies then don't write no news. We don't want to hear your rubbish.

Not only do they prevent sign on IDs of those who disagree with their wall st promotional style but they have now gone a step further. While allowing sign on everytime a person is signed on they attack the PC by making all web browser jitter and shake. I first thought this was my keyboard with a sticking key until killing the webrowser connected to marketwatch.com immediately stopped the problem. I retried this a number of times on consecutive days with the same result. I guess they will go to all kinds of lengths to promote their views of the stockmarket only.

Everything on here is what they want you to buy not what you should be buying. Honestly meme stocks are the move 100% right now. Why do you think amc nor gme appear on their most shorted list lol.

Censors Comments
June 22, 2020

Horrible Site full of liberal anarchist. Used to be a good source for financial news, now is just a trash site for liberal bloggers. Comments from Conservatives are censored and removed within 1 minute of posting. Perfect example of how liberal media is twisting this country.

Good night Marketwatch... yes we know you are all paid off by hedge funds to spread fear and doubt and encourage panic selling - but to accidentally post your article 35 minutes BEFORE the co-ordinated crash of a stock price actually happens is straight up $#*!ed.

Enjoy the SEC investigation...

Marketwatch is now a subscription service. Why would I pay for their opinions? I used to read them for the humor value - Never for their advice. The comments at the end of the articles had the most value. Bye Marketwatch!

This website is an arm of the wall st journal. It promotes the interests of wall st by only allowing positive views on the comments to its published articles. Those that do react negatively are censored by not allowing them to post even though they are recognised by a sign in name they are told to select an id name. When they try to do so the website ends with a blank page. All attempts to contact as to the meaning of the problem are ignored. My only understanding is that they deliberately censor people by removing their abilityto post.

Marketwatch used to be one of my go-to for any financial news. But now, all the articles and news in MW is paid subscriptions. There is no way you can read any news if you click on any links from their main page.
They are notorious... on their page, they say that inorder to read the news you need to either subscribe or login using an account (either FB or google or their own). But when you sign up and login, then they still display message to subscribe inorder to read any news or articles. Crucked people... BOYCOTT MARKETWATCH... teach them a lesson and make them shut down their website.

Market watch is nothing more than a left leaning publication, that silences any descent by blocking your posts that they do not agree with, these are fact based posts that can easily be checked, for example I posted about former C. I. A. Director John Brennan "bugging" the senate judiciary computers this can be found with a simple search BLOCKED, I can list examples like this all day, Its like watching Lawrence O'donnell for god sake! I Quit Market watch you can have your "one size fits all" thinking good riddance.

Worst of the Worst
March 5, 2020

The website is CONSTANTLY having connection issues and at times won't let you buy or sell stocks for no reason. The site frequently doesn't update correctly and the standings in the challenge games are right only 30% of the time. The headlines are laughably negative, all the time. Know what you're getting into before diving into market watch, the site SUCKS!
