I created a program for updating a mySql database with stock quotes from Yahoo finance. It can be run as a daemon so that it downloads all the data for a specified number of years the first time it's run, and updaes all the quotes an the end of every day after that. You may find it useful, if you do write back to let me know :)
I am offering the Eclipse project (just import it) - it will help if you know some Java. If there is enough demand I'll put together a binary for ease-of-use.
stockSaver.zip
- to configure the application look at the stocksaver.properties file, I've included the sql to create a basic table for all the data, the symbols for the S&P500 and some sql code to run correlations on all the pairs in the table - enjoy
P.S. to run it as a deamon check out the apache-daemon project
