Translations

Whats the USA equivalent for Bovespa "Home Broker"? Direct-access trading?

The equivalent for "home broker" in the US is simply online trading broker. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.32.80.123 (talk) 01:27, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Translating the abbreviation BOVESPA into "Sao Paulo State Stock Exchange" is a mistake, the Bovespa web site clearly states the Bovespa stands for ´Bolsa de Valores de São Paulo´ = ´São Paulo Stock Exchange´! see: http://www.bovespa.com.br/Bovespa/QuemSomos/historia_cidade.htm

I don't think it's a mistake translating the abbreviation BOVESPA into "Sao Paulo Stock Exchange" because it's exactly what the the abbreviatin means. Like "USA" in English or "EUA" in portuguese. Both are correct in its own language. Only proper names should not be translated. For instance, it would be a mistake to translate Maria into Mary or São Paulo into Saint Paul. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.32.80.123 (talk) 01:33, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

BM&F

A lot of BM&F info (list of commodities, history etc) is not reflected on this page. Shouldn't we resurrect the old BM&F page and then rename it to commodities division of BM&F Bovespa ? -- Nic Roets (talk) 23:11, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be a mania for merging wikipedia articles whenever companies or entities buy out or merge with others. In the process a lot of information seems to be thrown out. Just because the BM&F merged with Bovespa doesn't mean its history aisre meaningless. Where was it? When was it founded? Was it large or small?

Are there standards for how to treat such historical entities? I noticed that the same thing was happening when I was looking at the history of banking in the US. Cellmaker (talk) 14:39, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Market Hours

Market hours are wrong. See http://www.bmfbovespa.com.br/en-us/regulation/trading-hours/trading-hours.aspx?aba=tabItem1&idioma=en-us for correct details. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.130.138.148 (talk) 00:19, 14 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

BOVESPA is the second largest stock market in the world by 'market value'?

I just removed a highly dubious claim stating that BOVESPA, Brazil's main bourse, is the second largest in the world by market capitalization. This claim was cited from a Brazilian newspaper, but no sources from the World Federation of Exchanges could support such a claim. In fact, the second largest stock exchange in the world at December of 2009 was the London SE Group, with market capitalization of US$ 3,453 billion - a lot bigger than BOVESPA's US$ 1,337 billion, as it is claimed in the article.

Please do not add dubious claims as facts simply because it is cited from some other source. (1tephania (talk) 16:20, 23 December 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Requested move 9 August 2017

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved DrStrauss talk 21:03, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

BM&F Bovespa → B3 (stock exchange) – As the article itself, and the main website for the exchange, says this stock exchange is now known as B3 and this appears to be the common name used by the financial community. I've not done this move myself (just created a redirect) as I'd like a second opinion or community input. ◦ Trey Maturin 17:55, 9 August 2017 (UTC)--Relisting. —usernamekiran(talk) 03:35, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support. I'm astonished at the speed at which the new name has been adopted by recent sources, but it clearly has been, two quick googles [1] [2] show the old name as far behind even when the new search would have been expected to show fewer new ghits because of its structure, and I've made no attempt to leverage more recent sources. Andrewa (talk) 10:06, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Possible WP:NOTGUIDE?

The section "Tickers and trade names", although informative and with some references, reads somewhat like a guide book. Since there is some relevant information at least and there are references I didn't remove it, but it seems to be like most of it consists of a guide book that can be found in the stock exchange website... Would anyone oppose to a substantial trim to that section? Saturnalia0 (talk) 22:56, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
