Factor grades and quant summary covered by ad

  • updated

As of this morning, on every symbol page of the website, the factor grades and quant summary block on the top right is covered by an ad for Alpha Picks. It is on most other pages I view on the website, but it is annoying here since it is covering the main content provided by the SA Premium. Do I have to sign up for the service to remove this ad and view the premium content?

I agree. This is extremely annoying. Stop trying to sell me stuff by hiding what I need to see. That is awful.

The quant model summary and dividend health metric is one of the most useful features of the premium model. You want to put the ad above it, that would still be terrible but at least you wouldn't have removed a highly useful feature from paying membership.

Agreed .... this has annoyed the heck out of me this morning .... whoever came up with that marketing idea needs to be kicked in the head.

The ability to read and change notes for a stock has been completely removed from the stock page as a result of this. It is still possible to alter the note by viewing it's summary from a portfolio view, but that's a pretty awkward way of accessing basic functionality.

Seeking Alpha fixed this for a brief time but did not commit the update so it reverted back to the premium content being covered by an ad again.

Looks like the ad disappeared from my account, at least for now. :-)
