how to get stock price using Apex and update to a field?
I wanted to read stock price Yahoo or any other site like google finance or msn but cant get any sample code. I tried the following sample and it is not working now.

Is there any public url available free to get stock price?

Hope this helps you.
I got some code, I think it is work for you
global class CallYahooQuotes
{
@future(callout=true)
public static void getQuotes()
{ //for our simple example we are going to just update the quotes on one Account
Account acct = [select id, TickerSymbol, stock_price__c from account where name = 'Salesforce.com'];
//where f stands for the fields to be displayed (in this case: s - symbol; l1 - last price; c1 - change; d1 = last date)
// String url = 'http://quote.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s='+acct.TickerSymbol+'&f=sl1c1d1&e=.csv';
String url = 'http://download.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s='+acct.TickerSymbol+'&f=l1&e=.csv';
Http h = new Http();
HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest();
req.setEndpoint(url);
req.setMethod('GET');
HttpResponse res = h.send(req);
//omitting error handling for example
acct.stock_price__c = decimal.valueOf(res.getBody().trim());
update acct;
}
}
Thanks & Regards
