Is there any easy way to find historic stock data for a ticker symbol? I'm wondering if you could easily and cheaply pull up the day's price on say, MSFT, on July 17, 1995. And maybe three years to the day after that. I usually only see a range or a trendline with historic stock data, but someone must track all of them individually over time like this. Are there services for this? I would even pay for it.
