Your comments

I would also add that the hiding of some comments behind "show more replies" is really bad.  There's no good reason for that, it makes skimming through comments harder, and, it hides comments from searches -- if you search the page for some text you know is in a comment, then you'll fail to find the comments hidden behind the "show more replies" button.  Really bad usability.

I noticed now that ctrl - click again works as I expected.  Thanks for fixing it!

In the subject, I meant "in new tab" instead of "new window".  But that's a minor thing.

I couldn't even find the earnings calendar for my portfolio stocks.  Does that page still exist?

That was something that I noticed immediately as well -- it's no longer possible to click on a ticker symbol under an article/news post.  Impressive that this passed QE.

I agree with all the comments above.  This is a mind boggling change.  On desktop, I want to see articles/headlines first.  That's the value of seekingalpha.  In the old version, the tickers on a mini tab on the left side, out of the way, was perfect.  I rarely clicked the old portfolio/data tab.  Now I'm forced to see it all the time.  The "view headlines" shortcut is not the same thing, because it forces me to do an extra click after a refresh.

Looks like "SIG" is Sitka gold on the CSE (Canadian Securities Exchange).  I'd guess that the mixup is related to that.

Indeed, I'm seeing the same here.
