Hello treliff,
Agreed that all historical fundamental data is not created equal.
I am looking out for peoples favourites or recommended sites.
It is a fair question to ask of the sites that have screen>export
software if indeed all fields can be exported in one file and if so
what is the depth (years)?
Re your comment 'the habit of kicking out the previous value and
simply replacing it with the new one seems to be the norm in
fundaland'.
Do you mean that many of the historical sites I have listed are in
fact only current data providers?
I am trying to understand what you pointed out to us there.
Minor comments.
I have QP and IQ data as two providers who bundle current fdata with
their price data.
There are probably others.
It used to be a very short list but new players pop up every day.
http://www.qp2.com
http://www.iqfeed.net/
I had Stockwiz in the short list for hist fdata but the site has
changed recently and I couldn't find any reference to it that the
public can access.
They do talk about fundas but no details are given and the link to
the data site is know a log on restricted access site.
I added tbsp to the histo list.
http://www.tbsp.com/public/default.htm
AAII Stock Investor Pro lists the financials that are available for
7yrs/8qtrs and has a 'money back period'.
Admittedly 'money backs' are not as user frienly as free demo
versions.
