NYSE Trade & Quote Database

Question

A faculty member here wishes the Library to subscribe to the New York Stock Exchange Trade and Quote database; I've never heard of it before. I gather this is something that not very many universities have and that most often it is the business school that pays for it.

Any comments about this that I can share with the Collections Development Unit?

Answer

The NYSE Trade and Quote data is available directly from the NYSE on DVD or via the WRDS service (must pay for the WRDS membership).

They do offer an academic discount. You may buy the data in monthly increments or by the year for historical data.

Your collections folks (or your business librarian, if you have one) need to contact the NYSE for a detailed quote.

The contact information can be found on their website.

We looked at subscribing to TAQ but because you have to pay an annual rate for the current year plus purchase, for a flat fee, each historical year (goes back to 1993) we decided we couldn't afford a long enough backfile to allow for data analysis. If you want to learn more you can visit this website.

  5. The things i have observed in terms of personal computer memory is that there are requirements such as SDRAM, DDR etc, that must fit the specific features of the motherboard. If the pc's motherboard is very current while there are no operating-system issues, replacing the memory space literally will take under an hour. It's among the easiest pc upgrade procedures one can visualize. Thanks for spreading your ideas.
