Bloomberg
Bloomberg is a database with information on all types of financial securities, i.e. stocks, bonds, commodities, mutual funds, treasuries, etc.
We have two computers on the first floor and one computer with Bloomberg access in the Bashinsky computer lab. There is NO remote access for this database. Sign-up notebooks are next to each computer on the first floor. First come/first serve for the ones in Bashinsky.
Be sure to take full advantage of your access to Bloomberg while you are here at UA as a student. Learn more about Bloomberg and it's content by using our Bloomberg subscription and taking a look at these Bloomberg Market Concepts (BMC).
