I'm trying to save and stockdata from yahoo finance.
% code
Quotes = urlread('http://real-chart.finance.yahoo.com/table.csv?s=HMSY&a=00&b=1&c=2015&d=00&e=4&f=2099&g=d&ignore=.csv');
"Quotes" will end up being a string in csv form. How can I save "Quotes" as a .csv file?
Edit: I posted the wrong string in urlread by accident.

No it will not. Given that URL, Quotes will end up being a string full of HTML that does not contain the data at all, and instead contains references to javascript functions that presumably read in the data.

Sorry about that, I copied and pasted the wrong URL. That has been corrected.
To store that as a csv file:
fid = fopen('YourFile.csv', 'wt');
fwrite(fid, Quotes);
fclose(fid);
If you had wanted it as an xls* file then there would have been more work, but since it is already in csv line structure just write the string to a file.
