So I was just wondering if anyone knew of a way to get a free Excel add-in on data for companies. I've used Bloomberg, Factset, and Cap IQ's excel add-ins and they're great. I'm assuming if a free add-in is out there, it wont be too accurate, but its probably better than nothing.

exactly what kind of data are you looking for?
i know that thinkorswim (trading platform of TDAmeritrade) has a free excel link for streaming realtime data (prices, trading volume, company fundamentals, etc..)
an example would be =RTD("tos.rtd", , "BID", "AAPL") =RTD("tos.rtd", , "ASK", "AAPL") =RTD("tos.rtd", , "High", "AAPL") =RTD("tos.rtd", , "Low", "AAPL") =RTD("tos.rtd", , "Last", "AAPL") =RTD("tos.rtd", , "Volume", "AAPL")
If you google “stock market functions add-in” you’ll find an open source excel add-in. It has hundreds of functions, and pulls different data from tons of different websites. It’s easy to set up and usually works pretty well.
Thanks ill go try this out!

Hey guys i'm in my last year of ug and my thesis is on "Analytical,prediction and evaluation models for stocks on company X" and I need to know if there are any free databases that provide financial information from different companies. If there's no such thing,what's the cheapest database one could get access to?
