-**Personalized chart settings**  
-Now you can choose chart default settings to match your style. If you click on the "Settings" tab, you can decide whether or not you want to see News Flags, Dividends, Splits, or Volume on your chart. In addition, you can decide on the default zoom level of your chart and if you want your vertical scale maximized or fixed.
-
-**Import Portfolios**  
-It's now easy to view your portfolios from other online finance sites. Simply go to your portfolio on another site, copy the area of the portfolio, including the column headers, and then paste it in the "Import" section of the [Google portfolio page](http://finance.google.com/finance/portfolio?action=view&pid=1).

-
-**How does Google Finance identify Related Companies?**  
-The Related Companies feature shows you which companies have been associated with each other in the past, based on our web search results, news items and other sources. These results are algorithmically determined, not selected by a human reviewer. This feature can tell you that companies are somehow connected, but it can't tell you how they're connected; they could be adversaries, partners, or anything else. We encourage you to web search, and other resources to learn more about the relationships between companies listed in the Related Companies feature.

-First, make sure you have Macromedia Flash Player 7.0 or higher installed on your machine. If you don't have the plug-in, you can download it [here](http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash). If you have Flash installed, but still don't see a chart, this probably means the security in question isn't trading with enough volume to generate a chart. This often happens with penny stocks or stocks trading on foreign exchanges. It's also worth noting that privately held companies will not have charts.

Our sector values are computed by summing all the market caps of the stocks in the sector.   
+  
+Category pages show the most active companies by dollar volume, % price change, market cap change, volume and $ volume, and stock query popularity as gauged by our very own Google Trends.
+
+**What are Top Movers?**  
+Now you can easily see which companies are the biggest movers by:
+
+  * Price, which identifies the top gainers and losers in terms of % price change vs. the prior day's official closing price
+  * Market cap, which identifies the top gainers and losers in terms of change in absolute market capitalization vs. the prior day's official closing market cap
+  * Volume, which identifies the stocks with the highest trade volume
+  * $ Volume, which identifies the stocks with the highest dollar volume (value of shares) traded
+  * Popularity, which identifies the stocks with the highest gains in Google query traffic 
+
+Note: Price/Market Cap/Volume/$ Volume all exclude stocks with market caps less than $1 billion and stock prices lower than $1
