I already have the quotes but in order to do fundamental analysis using historical information the two items above are required. I am looking to go back to ca 2010 (or earlier, if possible). I have looked into parsing XBRL information from the SEC (8-K filings as I understand it) but it does not seem promising for two reasons: (1) XBRL has a short history, shorter the smaller the company is; and (2) the quality of submissions and taxonomies used is not as good as one would like... Is CRISP or Compustat data available without a subscription?

Thank you for the suggestion. I have looked at his site which has much valuable information, including a snapshot (2021-01) of current industry classifications of public companies. However, it does not say what the source of the classification is, nor could I find any historical information, eg for public companies which are no longer around or? changes in classification for companies changing business. I understand that the historical information may be hard to get. I could not, however, find any information on corporate events such as stock splits, dividends etc. Have you found any such information there?
