3. Why are stock market quotes delayed 15+ minutes on the free
internet and cable TV?
It seems unreasonable. Everyone (the American public) was encouraged to invest in the stock
market over the last 10+ years. Where is the info? In the computer age, why is it delayed? Why
do we have to subscribe (and pay) to obtain real-time data?
Steve Winston answers:
I was wondering exactly the same thing!
Thomas asks…
Why are the stock market quotes delayed by 20 mins. online?
When looking online at stock quotes, I always noticed the disclaimer at the bottom of the page
that stated how the quotes are delayed by 20 mins. Why is that?

4. Steve Winston answers:
The exchanges sell their stock feeds. This is valuable information to active traders. The deal
with the people licensing the live data is that they will not redistribute it to anyone who has not
also paid for their own license. I get live feeds over the internet, but my broker pays the fee for
me on condition I give him a certain amount of business each quarter, of I have to reimburse
him.
After 20 minutes, the numbers are considered old news, because short term traders have
already done there thing by then.
