I really want to customize my Windows 8 Start Page by adding tiles for my key stock holdings. Though I might be running Windows, I have more Apple stock than Microsoft stock, for example, and it'd be nice to see how it's doing at a glance. Is that possible?
I've been trying to figure out what people mean when they talk about the "market cap" of a company like Google. Can you explain it to me, please, along with any other useful or interesting tidbits about reading financial data for a publicly traded company?
