When did Yahoo have their own finance site?

(most of it is provided by a third party, or was when I worked for said provider)

Yahoo finance was the original finance site where your parents used to look up stock quotes for Nokia and Pets.com during the original tech bubble.

Being a perl/regex person back in the day, I recall having Mastering Regular Expressions as a well thumbed reference book. The author, Jeffrey Friedl ( http://regex.info/blog/jfriedl-links/about ) worked at Yahoo! Finance at the time. It was a most impressive and useful site in its time.
