开发者_开发知识库 Locked. This question and its answers are locked because the question is off-topic but has historical significance. It is not currently accepting new answers or interactions.Q. Do Yahoo provides any Finance API? If yes, the what's the link to that API.
IMHO the best place to find this information is: http://code.google.com/p/yahoo-finance-managed/
I used to use the "gummy-stuff" too but then I found this page which is far more organized and full of easy to use examples. I am using it now to get the data in CSV files and use the files in my C++/Qt project.
Here's a simple scraper I created in c# to get streaming quote data printed out to a console. It should be easily converted to java. Based on the following post:

Not too fancy (i.e. no regex etc), just a fast & dirty solution.

You may use YQL however yahoo.finance.* tables are not the core yahoo tables. It is an open data table which uses the 'csv api' and converts it to json or xml format. It is more convenient to use but it's not always reliable. I could not use it just a while ago because it the table hits its storage limit or something...
You may use this php library to get historical data / quotes using YQL https://github.com/aygee/php-yql-finance
Yahoo is very easy to use and provides customized data. Use the following page to learn more.
finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=AAPL+GOOG+MSFT=pder=.csv
WARNING - there are a few tutorials out there on the web that show you how to do this, but the region where you put in the stock symbols causes an error if you use it as posted. You will get a "MISSING FORMAT VALUE". The tutorials I found omits the commentary around GOOG.
Example URL for GOOG: http://download.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=%40%5EDJI,GOOG&f=nsl1op&e=.csv
