: : Mark, Although these quotes are available again through Yahoo.com server some stocks are not totally accurately quoted. it appears that reuters supplies them whole cents only for prices even though some stocks trade at fraction of cents as well. eg aql.nz closed at .156cps yahoo shows closing at .15 cents.
: : This problem does not arise at the yahoo Australia & NZ dedicated quote site as they appear to not use reuters for their quotes.
: : Accordingly access to this site for internet retrieval would assist us Kiwi users.

Hi Mark and Stewart,

I cannot help you with NZ info but you can get data on ASX stocks from equitycafe.com.au.
Join as a trial member and you can download prices in *.CSV format going back about (I think) 2 years.
I can give you the profile to load the data into FM or you can work it out for yourself from the help file.
You can also get prices from: ftp://www.stockwatch.com.au/pub/sez/
Goes back about 9 months further than the other site, but not so many formats available.
Finally, you might find http://www.globalregister.co.nz a useful site for ASX "fundamentals" type information.
