Are online stock quotes accurate?

Delayed Online Stock Quotes

Don't rely on free online stock quotes for timely stock performance information. Unless you subscribe to a "live" stock quote service, the stock quotes you download during market hours are delayed by about 15 minutes or more. This can make a big difference if you're a day trader.
