They also seem to match up pretty well with CNN Money. Additionally, why would there be second-by-second changes if it wasn't updated immediately? Unless of course it's updated immediately just with a 15 minute delay, which wouldn't make a lot of sense since the SEC no longer requires them to do this. Anyway, is there a way to get previous stock quotes similar to this? Such as Time X on Day Y.
