It appears Yahoo has removed the localized data permanently for Stock Quotes. All urls now redirect to the US link.

I just checked again today if the localized data were back, and it doesn’t seem to.

I’m still not sure if it’s a bug or a volontary move from Yahoo!, in order to cut their expenses.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. It appears that Yahoo has decided to no longer offer localized version of the data. Currently they are redirecting all localized requests to the default download.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv url.

Since yesterday the API doesn’t seem to work with appropriate localization.

Wonder if Yahoo changed something in their API.
