I need to record Apple's share price for two weeks for an assigment. www.amex.com looks to be the American Stock Exchange website, but Apple's share price sn't updated daily.

Where can I find a daily update of Apple's share price?

Thanks in advance.

Apple is listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange. Look up the symbol AAPL.

A lot of Mac rumour sites have the stock price on their front page too, like MacNN and Mac Daily News

mate, just go to http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=aapl in two weeks...... on the left hand side of the page click on historical prices and voila! you don't have to do shit for two weeks!

Edit: or just click on the historical price link here in two weeks, and you'll get all the info you need.

The history still doesn't tell me everything. I need to know:

Move: The change in the price from the previous day's close. (This doesn't show up in the history)

Quotation buy: The highest bid to buy a stock, recorded at the close of sale.

Quotation sell: The lowest offer to sell a stock, recorded at the close of sale.

and the 52 week high and 52 week low: The highest and lowest sales recorded during the past year of trading.

This does show up....you may just have to actually calculate it. Basic math will do it.

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=AAPL

that does have everything you need. you can't be lazy and expect everything to just be there.

you can work out the move yourself by just finding the difference between the close of each day. you can even plug in the data into a excel sheet, write the formula and fill down.

due to the processes of supply and demand the share price is a result of the bid, for example if the share price is at $1.00, and i place a bid for $1.05 the share price will rise as demand exceeds supply, hence the highest bid price would be the high point of the share price. the highest bid will be the high column. and lowest bid would be the low column, of course this is only valid if someone supplies the demanded shares at the price. your teacher is not going to check it up, so just take the high and low.

remember that the bids are cleared out after the transaction is made, and only unsuccessful bids are carried onto the next trading day. so your probably never going to find past bids, you will only get the current bids in place (in comsec and trading room anyways).

remembering that USA is not just one exchange, its made up of the Dowjones and Nasdaq, so if your looking for the best info for apple you shold go to the Nasdaq website http://www.nasdaq.com/

The current highest bid and lowest offer are recorded on the daily sheets at yahoo. They don't record these in the history.

Just find another market information providers website.

I daresay you didn't even bother to google in the first place..... I just googled "Stock Market" and yahoo finance came in third, and the ones are it were pretty decent ones too..... refining the search would be useful for you too
