Wharton provides access to several tools for exploring real-time and historical market data..
Bloomberg
The Bloomberg Terminals are a proprietary computer software system that provides real-time and historical market data, financial news, analytics, communication tools, and trading capabilities for financial market participants. They are for accessing the Bloomberg Financial Markets data services, and do not have all the other standard applications.
Location of Bloomberg Terminals
Jon M. Huntsman Hall
Two workstations are located on the Forum Level in Jon M. Huntsman Hall, across from the entrance to the F75 Computer Lab.
Logging In
