| By "market information" you appear to mean the ticker price/volume
data. This is the property of each exchange, and they all sell the
real-time traffic and make a lot of money at it.
What you read in the papers for a stock price is the NYSE Composite,
meaning the publisher combines the data from all exchanges on which a
NYSE stock trades (e.g., DEC trades on the Pacific exchange are
included there, even though the Pacific exchange is not the New york
Stock Exchange).

1021.2 | Online Databases? | JOKUR::FALKOF | | Thu Mar 20 1997 08:25 | 6 |
| Are there any online historical databases that contain data up to 10 or
even 15 years ago? I need to research some stocks that go back about
that far, and a trip to my local library to review WSJ microfilm will
take a lot longer than an online jaunt. Thanks for any pointers.

| This kind of data is sold on cd-roms:
see:
http://www.prophetdata.com/stocks/sdcdrom.htm
Most on line sources that allow free charting keep data for at most 5-6 years.

| microsoft investors keeps a maximum of 5 years of data so it may not be very
useful if .2 is looking beyond that.

1021.6 | Depends ... | CONSLT::HITZ | George Hitz DTN:223-3408 W1DA | Thu Mar 20 1997 12:26 | 10 |

I just looked up IBM and the data goes back to 1962, DEC (sic)
only goes back to about 1976.
Guess it depends on what you are looking up.

looking for.
