I would like to see some keyboard shortcuts in Google Finance.  Most Google Apps have keyboard shortcuts, and it's time for keyboard shortcuts to make it into Google Finance.

Some particular shortcuts that would be useful:

shift + n = go to news section
j = next item in news
k = previous item in news
also need the ability to mark news as read/unread and mark as spam

shift + f = go to company financials
g + b = go to balance sheet
g + i = go to income statement
g + c = go to cash flow statement

shift + 1 = one day chart
shift + 2 = three day chart
shift + 3 = week chart
shift + 4 = one month chart
shift + 5 = three month chart
shift + 6 = one year chart
shift + 7 = five year chart

shift + p = go to portfolios
j = next portfolio
k = previous portfolio
n = new item in portfolio

? = brings up keyboard shortcuts help
/ = jump to search bar

Hello Sahaj,

Thank you for your suggestion - I haven't heard this one before, but
it's a good idea. We'll keep it in mind.

Great to hear!

It would make researching companies as easy as checking my Gmail.

What if the shortcuts were simplified to allow for only a couple of things, specifically:

Shift Spacebar: Jump to the ticker input box
Shift D: Jump to the start date, tab to end date
Shift C: Jump to Compare box (allow entry of multiple tickers before refreshing)
Shift N: Move to news tickers and use J and K to scroll through news
Shift Enter: Refresh graph with new criteria

(Obviously not comprehensive but would definitely enhance user experience)
