Additional Ideas for Viewing Stock Quotes
The Stocks application can help you track your stock portfolio so you can see how much money you've made (or lost) that day. Even if you don't own any stocks, you might want to track stock prices of a few popular companies just to be aware of their financial health.
For example, compare the stock prices of Apple (AAPL) with Microsoft (MSFT), and you can get a rough idea which company seems to have a brighter future. Do the same with search engine rivals Google (GOOG) and Yahoo! (YHOO), and you can see which company is financially stronger. By watching stocks on your iPhone, you can see if you have what it takes to make (or lose) money consistently in the stock market.
