Hello,
Anyone know where is the best place to obtain foregin stock data?
I have very clean us equity data and would be willing to swap.

Thanks.

Thats kind of a wide open question. Best place usually is to go to the web site of the company you are interested in. Just realize that much of the world has far inferior reporting requirements and these foreign company websites can be hit or miss. For this reason a lot of people stick with investing in ADRs or region specific mutual funds because you just can't compare or be up on what is affecting a foreign stock like you can with a US stock unless you have local insight or are located in a foreign country. Some European bourses are getting up to US standards, but none has quite matched it yet. Even worse is that insider trading rules in many markets and there are no disclosure requirements so a stock can make a huge move for reasons you will have no clue about.
