Find Historical Information about Stock Prices
-
Yahoo Finance (Stock Prices)Stock prices going back to the 1970s may be available on this site. Historical data for the stock high, low, close price is comparable to what you would find in a newpaper on the same date -- with the adjusted (for stock splits) close data in the column on the far right.
Begin by doing a search using the company ticker symbol. Then choose "Historical Prices" from the blue bar on the left.
Choose start and end date. Choose whether you need daily, weekly, or monthly data. Add ticker symbol and click on "Get Prices." Data is from CSI Commodity Systems Inc. Disclaimers and FAQ appear at the bottom of the page. -
Big Charts (Historical Stock Price Quotes)This site allows you to get an historical stock price going back to 1985. However, you will get the exact closing price (plus high, low, and volume) for *one day only.* So, if you are looking for a date range, try another site.

Daily Stock Price Record
Since the early 1960's Standard & Poor's Daily stock price record has been the most convenient printed guide to retrospective stock prices. It is published in three editions. One each for the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), the American Stock Exchange (ASE), and the NASDAQ market. All NYSE and ASE as well as about 5,700 NASDAQ firms are listed. The NASDAQ volumes are divided into three parts, covering mutual funds, banks and insurance companies, and all other firms. Otherwise, the listings are alphabetical by company name. Every volume provides daily quotes for the entire quarter, with all the prices for a company displayed on one page. The library holds this publication since 1962 for NYSE, 1964 for ASE, and 1968 for NASDAQ (formerly OTC). Each new quarterly volume is received approximately three months after the quarter concludes. If you need daily stock quotes more current than the Daily stock price record volumes we hold, read on.
