Thanks for the useful information.
One question I have is that I was not able to pull correct foreign stock prices from Yahoo. For example, I typed in 7267:JP which is Honda Motors in Nikkei market and yahoo finance does not return any value. However, Bloomberg.com retrieves the stock price.

Do you know if it is possible to retrieve foreign stock prices from yahoo? If so, can you advise how?

@Ani The quote service for Yahoo allows you to add several options in the f parameter of the url, if you add an r to the end, ex. http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=GOOG&f=sl1d1t1c1ohgvr&e=.csv you'll get the P/E ratio in the last field. You could also limit the amount of data coming back to just the essential information. See the options at http://www.gummy-stuff.org/Yahoo-data.htm
