That's the whole point, there is so much crap on these Mac's and we cannot remove the rubbish. It's not just stocks, it's News, AppleTV, Time Machine, Safari and a whole host of other stuff I never use and don't want cluttering up MY Mac. It's not their property it is mine and I don't want their rubbish forced on me and on such tiny memories built in, they take up precious space.

That is exactly my thought as I am fed up of Apple and their rubbish
Applications that are Built into the version of macOS installed on this computer can not be removed or deleted - period.
The user can remove the application from the Dock but the Application will still appear in the Applications Folder.
FYI - since Catalina macOS 10.15, Apple has Created a READ ONLY Volume on the computer to guard against Third Party or User modifying, removing, altering for attempting any of the afore mentioned actions.
If the user is disposed with this arrangement - suggest sending your feedback Directly to Apple
As a fellow user like yourself - there is nothing any of us can do about this.

All those Apps added up do not even equal 1 GB of Storage space (?) to clutter up "your" Mac....
It sounds like you did not buy a device that suits your needs.
You have options— if Mac is not for you buy a Windows® machine
or
Apple Owns the Operating System and that is a Fact.
What is included in the OS is a decision of Apple and is totally within their purview to decide.
The Core Elements that are built into the Operating System can not be remove not matter how hard or often one complains about it.
As for rubbish - no one Forced the User ( you ) to purchase an Apple Computer.
That was a conscience and purposeful decision of the User ( you ) purchasing the device
EDITED

The Stocks.app is only 4.1 MB(?)— hardly worth worrying about. Not to mention baked in apps can not be deleted.
Maybe I do not understand your definition of "bloatware" ...
I would look some where else
