Quote Basics
- Quotes and other information supplied by independent providers identified on the Yahoo! Finance partner page.
- Please verify that your stock is listed on an exchange (OTC Bulletin Board, NASDAQ, NYSE, AMEX, etc.). See the exchange table for a complete list of the more than 50 worldwide exchanges we support.
- For OTC stocks, please attach the exchange suffix ".OB" to the ticker symbol. Similarly, for Pink Sheets, please add the suffix ".PK" to the ticker symbol.
- Quotes are delayed 15 minutes for Nasdaq and 20 minutes for other exchanges. The quote data is updated continuously while the stock markets are open. The data displayed reflects the delayed version of the last trade.
- Times reported are the Eastern United States time zone. The U.S. stock markets are open from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except holidays.
- You must use a "ticker symbol" to get a quote for a stock. You can search for a company by its name via our alphabetical listing of companies and funds. You can also search the full universe of ticker symbols we carry (such as indices, currencies, etc.) via the symbol lookup link that appears on the Yahoo! Finance pages.
- You can get quotes for up to 50 stocks at a time. Enter multiple ticker symbols separated by a space or comma.
- Note that Bid and Ask prices are not displayed for NYSE stocks as it is not allowed by the exchange. However, if you are a Real-Time MarketTracker subscriber, Bid and Ask for NYSE stocks are displayed when you are logged in.
- Feel free to add links to our quote system on web pages you are creating. See "Accessing Quote Data From Your Web Page" for more information and examples.
