go to the finance home page (the link is on the main yahoo page) and then type in the symbol of the stock you are interested in.  It will then give you a list of several options, one of which is the message board.

It's simple if by returns you mean closing prices.\n\n\nJust go to Yahoo finance (http://finance.yahoo.com) \n\nType in your symbol of the index (or stock) you’re looking for\n\nThen on the left, click on historical quotes. \n\nNow, you can then type in the date range you want and choose daily/weekly/etc \n\nYou can even download the data to excel or wherever.\n\n\nOr if you prefer, you can go to this link instead. Just replace GOOG with the index or stock symbol that you’re looking for. \n\nhttp://finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=goog\n\nIf you want a different one, just type in the symbol or look it up and type it in. \n\nTo download, just click on the link at the bottom of the page.\n\nHave fun!

Most common websites, Yahoo Finance or most brokerage firms for instance, will give you company info.  Usually the charting feature will step you into the information you need visually, such as candle charts which show a daily trading high, low, open, and close.  Those are the easy places to start.  BTW, the New York Stock Exchange is usually abbreviated NYSE.  I don't know the BSE unless it is the old Boston Stock Exchange, a regional trading place that I didn't know was still in operation.

You can obtain a list of all NASDAQ stocks from:\nftp://ftp.nasdaqtrader.com/ in the SymbolDirectory folder in a file called nasdaq.txt (sorry, you can't post an FTP url inside Yahoo answers apparently)\n\nThis is a CSV file which can be opened in Excel.  The "Market Category" column shows either NNM or SCM.  SCM = Small Cap Market.
