Stock sector.

[Kinger]

Hi all,

Where can I find out the sector of a stock ?
I've tried looking at the free sites like yahoo and msn eg: Stock quotes | London stock exchange quote | UK stock quote | Stock market quotes - MSN Money UK

but can't see anywhere where the sector would be ????

thanks in advance

Industry Index By Sector: Industry Center - Yahoo! Finance for USA

Yahoo! Finance - FTSE 100, Share Prices, Charts, News and more... for UK

and every stock should have a SECTOR information on

IMHO To find out things, you don't try hard enough

BEFORE you ask Click company Profile

Otherwise ask us. Most of the stocks we know :clap:

Thanks for the response DaxDestroyer,
but, unless I'm missing something, what I wanted was to search for a listed company and find what sector it is in, not look at each sector to find the company ?

You missed it

EVERY company has a PROFILE and there you ALWAYS find the sector

It looks like the UK side does, but not the US. If you check 'FNSR' for example, there is no sector reported.

Don't get me wrong, but what about just using a BIT the Internet???

Google ... I know, this is NEW

FNSR - Finisar Corporation - Google Finance

FNSR search for it and you will find out immediately

even on YAHOO

this time, no profile, but the competitors or on Google the sector.
