While the rebooted NZX website [https://nzx.com] now provides company announcements going back years it still only provides the actual documents for the last six months and there is nothing worse than reading a 'please see attached...' [https://nzx.com/announcements/276509] with no attached.

StocknessMonster [https://stocknessmonster.com/] has also had a new coat of paint over the weekend and one of the changes, for the better, is that it now provides those attached documents for many years for companies.

I think this is a good thing.

How is Stockness Monster able to provide better or more info than the NZX ? Who funds them?

I have been finding the NZX site difficult to navigate lately,so I am very pleased with the upgraded Stocknessmonster site.No need for me to waste time on NZX site again.

I don't think it would be hard to compete with NZX (on an info showing basis). The website has been horrible as long as I can remember, notwithstanding the upgrades and redesigns they do. How they manage to get something that should be so easy so wrong I don't know. It's not rocket science. They have all the data, just present it properly!!

Great to see somebody has brought this up, I emailed them a few times this year, the last email was last week when I said the "new look" has removed the stock code from company announcements which makes it very difficult to find the ones that relate to me. Can the codes be included again. They responded saying "people have also asked to remove the stock codes from the announcements page".
Anyone on here made that suggestion lol, hate the NZX site, another annoying thing is that for a website which has all the data, why do they take so long to update it at market open? Market opens at 10am, updates sometimes are as late at 10:30am.......... I bet there's a dinosaur heading their IT division.

30 minutes delayed data for free ....if you want it by the second ( as it should be so we are ALL equally informed) they want you to pay for it ......

ON NZX Overlays all I can get are the Bollinger Bands. The 200 day average, which used to work if you brought up the B-bands first, doesn't any more. :ohmy:

At the bottom of the stocknessmonster site it says copyright Iguana2 who are listed as a real time data vendor and distributor [https://www.nzx.com/products/nzx-data] so presumably they fund it?

Thanks, good assumption.

The charts are simplistic, next to useless and very buggy. Their website is a steps backwards, a triumph over user experience.
