Things improved hugely when I changed the JOIN clauses:

LEFT OUTER JOIN history AS past_month ON (past_month.stock =
history.stock AND past_month.day >= (history.day - 30) AND
past_month.day < history.day)
LEFT OUTER JOIN history AS past_week ON (past_week.stock =
past_month.stock AND past_week.day =past_month.day AND past_week.day
>= (history.day - 7))
