Where have all the losers gone?

August 30, 2013 1:14 PM

How do I get a daily mid-day email with stock market movers?

I would like to receive periodic emails (I want to be able to define when I receive, right now I want the emails at 10am PST on market days) with the information that's here:

Yahoo! Price %Losers

and here:

CNN Dow 30 Companies

Basically, I just like to watch what's tanking in the stock market. Yes, I can get into my browser and look at the sites, but I want an email with the information, if possible. I've done some ineffective Googling, but this seems like it should be an easy thing to find, so maybe the search terms I'm using aren't right.

Advice? Thoughts? Haikus?

Thanks, mefinanciers!

Best answer: WSJ email alerts has a biggest decliners email alert with a midday option.

Response by poster: That one would be perfect, except I'm loathe to pay $23 a month for emails with free information. Arg, maybe I'll end up doing it, but I'm going to look around for an alternative. Thanks!

It should be free. I get other email alerts from WSJ and I have never subscribed. Anyway I signed up for this one to make sure. Will report back.

Best answer: It took one business day to kick into effect, but I can confirm that I am receiving these WSJ email alerts for free.

Response by poster: It did end up working for me without a subscription. There was some weird business with the account sign up which I can't explain, but I'm getting them now (and free) so, yay! Thanks, all.
