Microsoft (MSFT) stock historical data download
Microsoft Corporation has been founded by Bill Gates and Paul Allen on 4 April 1975. From Yahoo! Finance you can download MSFT stock data back until 13 March 1986.
Steps for downloading MSFT market data
Step2: Scroll
down to the bottom of the page and
click "Download to
Spreadsheet".
(By using default settings
you will download EOD Microsoft data from the broadest date range. If this is not suitable for you,
you can modify settings.)
Step3: Most
browsers open a file chooser window to select where to download data.
Start downloading market data by selecting a file and a location in
this window. (Default file name is "table.csv" which isn't
too good for identifying historical data on your computer so renaming
file to "msft.csv"
or similar is advised.)
If Microsoft
data file is automatically
opened with MS Excel or similar software (eg.: Libre Office Calc), it
may cause problems when importing
data file into a particular analysis software. In this case you
should right-click on "Download
to Spreadsheet"
link (like in Step 2)
and choose
- "Save target as..." in Internet Explorer
- "Save link As..." in Firefox and Google Chrome
- or something similar in the context menu (depending on your browser)
.
You can
analyze this data using eg.: Chartoasis
Sesame or this free
technicalanalysis software.
