Was wondering if anyone has suggestions for a free news feed if I'm not concerned about getting it in real time? End of the day would be fine for me. I'm mainly interested in archiving the news for historical analysis, so would like to have a pretty complete set of news pertaining to all equities, that I could either grab via RSS, or a page I could programmatically scrape once a day. In the past, I was using Ameritrade's streamer to continuously archive all headlines and press (I think most of their stuff came from DJ Newswire), but they've discontinued the news service for API users. I don't see a good source for free, delayed DJN, so have been looking for other alternatives. Thanks! -SH
http://feeds.finance.yahoo.com/rss/2.0/headline?s=MSFT®ion=US&lang=en-US just loop thru each ticker at the end of the day. the only problem is-yahoo's RSS poluted with non existent 'news' such as ticker xyz-biggest gainer today(while stock is flat). i did report the problem few times,then give up on it. another one-not all providers\sources are in RSS. compare RSS and this- http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=msft&ql=1 to see what i was talking about it i actually have such database
