Hello,

I'm writing a J/Link Java program using data gathered  through
Mathematica's FinancialData.

I only found samples where FinancialData is returning the information
from one ticker.
As each ticker fetch takes about half a second to complete, is it
possible to build up a query to fetch a list of tickers in a single
transmisson and have the service return back a completed list (as e.g.
Google Finance) or do I have (as I suspect) to cycle ticker by ticker
to complete the task (not economical in I/O)?
