They don't yet exist on the new website, and their future is as yet undetermined. We are looking for an affordable provider for the feed necessary to maintain portfolio records (especially current stock prices), but haven't found one yet and even when/if we do find one, it'll take quite a bit of work to get them incorporated. Portfolios is also a very gray area for us from a business perspective. Granted, we're a Stock message board, but the bottom line is that we're a message board, and I don't like to include ancilliary items that meet my two criteria of: 1. Not being central to the company's mission of being a message board provider. 2. Are available elsewhere for free. That said, I would still like to include portfolios on the new site mainly because of the way they're integrated into some message boards here, so it's something I do plan to try to make happen if it's feasible. And I've imported all the data for them. It's just not accessible there via the web.
