QMac 2007 has reached "sunset" stage with the release of Catalina OS for Mac.
All online activity has ceased to function.
You can continue to use 2007 in manual mode as long as you stay with Mojave OS or earlier.
Mac 2007 will not run under Catalina.
Finally, no, there are no further updates planned for 2007.

Meanwhile, you can still do one of the following:

1. import stock prices using QIF import.

2. If you cannot find a QIF export of data, you can easily convert a CSV into QIF... All you need are 3 columns of data:

Ticker Symbol, price, date

A data file must be plain ASCII, or simple text, with no other formatting.

To change a CSV or ASCII file into a QIF file for price import do the following things:

on the first line of the price list file, type !Type:Prices
on the last line of the list, type ^
Make sure there is no data or delimiters after the date on each line
save the file as CSV.
Change file extension as .qif
use File > Import > Import from QIF

So the price list will look like:

!Type:Prices

ABT,83.74,11/21/19

MINDX,25.82,11/21/19

For acceptable price formatting of the file, see this article

https://www.quicken.com/support/how-import-historical-security-data-quicken

3. And finally, in the worst case, you will have to manually enter the data.

No quotes downloaded to my quicken 2007 mac 16.2.4 since last Thursday 11/14/19 [no mutual funds], and Friday 11/15/19 [no nothing: no funds, stocks or ETFs]. Is there another update in the works to restore access to the quotes server for us 2007 mac users?

Same here. Last update was 11/12/19, 6:12 PM EST. The support policies don't indicate that quotes download would be disabled. It talks about transaction downloads.

At one time, I tried to convert database to Quicken for Windows but that failed due to differences in date and transaction handling.

All download services were ended. (In some of their legal agreements, they define transactions to be anything that's downloaded, so quotes are a type of transaction.)

The quote server was run by Intuit, Quicken's former parent. Quicken paid them -- and cajoled them -- to keep it running as long as they did in order to meet the needs to the ever-dwindling ranks of Quicken 2007 users. But the service would have apparently needed security updates that made it impractical for a long-discontinued product.

Thanks for the explanation.
As reported by others here, I've also found that quote downloads have ceased. But transaction downloads from my bank are still working (knocks on some nearby wood..)
