is there a website I can look at to see the value of a certain stock on 9/29/1998?

Answer 1

It's simple!

Go to Yahoo finance (http://finance.yahoo.com)

Type in your symbol of the stock you’re looking for

Then on the left, click on historical quotes.

Now, you can then type in the date range you want and choose daily/weekly/etc and download the data to excel or wherever.


Or if you prefer, you can go to this link instead. Just replace GOOG with the stock symbol that you’re looking for.

Have fun!


*The adjusted price is the stock price adjusted for splits. So if a stock was at 100, and split 2 for 1 to 50, the adjusted price would show you the price as if the stock had always been at 50 so you can determine the real change in value of that stock over time.


P.S. If you’re looking for a quote just on one day, you can go here.
