Does anyone know where I can find bulk access to historical company financial data (e.g. http://www.google.com/finance?fstype=ii&q=NASDAQ:AACC)? I'd like to research stock market patterns over time using computer models (i.e. *not* manually looking at graphs). I'm aware of the Yahoo/Google Finance APIs, but these only provide historical quotes, and they don't allow bulk download of income statements or balance sheets.
I might be willing to pay for this data, but I can't even find anyone selling it in a form that's downloadable. There are millions of "member only" sites providing this information as graphs or PDFs, but these are useless since they're not in a form that I can feed into a database. |

Hi body, you can do exactly what you want using Yahoo, you just need the correct flag parameters, i don't know if this forum policies allows publishing of email or links, but i'm using it in my own web site, to analyze compare in order to get some signals of entry (BUY / SHORT) based on this data, something like a BlackBox but without automatic orders, just points of entries.

Based on the the observation that all data culminates in just one thing at the close of play - i.e. what the PRICE of a stock is, why get bogged down with company analysis when price - and its patterns - can be read off a chart, and a decision made from that picture?
There seems to be so much evidence to support technicals/charting...?
Just curious, that's all |
