Stock and mutual fund data web service

Question

Is there a reliable web service that contains current and historical stock and mutual fund data that I can call to download this data to my application? Mostly using the United States stock exchanges but might include some of the bigger international stock markets as well.

Answer 1

Try asking this question in WebApps. I think you will get better answers there.

Answer 2

Take a look at the Mergent Historical Securities Data API - http://www.mergent.com/servius - should have exactly what you need (for both stocks and mutual funds)
