NAME
Finance::Quote::FinanceCanada - Obtain stock and mutual fund prices from finance.canada.com SYNOPSIS
use Finance::Quote; $q = Finance::Quote->new; # Can failover to other methods %quotes = $q->fetch("canada", "stock_fund-code"); # Use this module only %quotes = $q->fetch("financecanada", "stock_fund-code"); DESCRIPTION
This module obtains information about Canadian Stock and Mutual Funds from finanace.canada.com. The information source "canada" can be used if the information source is unimportant, or "financecanada" to specifically use finance.canada.com. STOCK_FUND-CODE Canadian stocks/mutual funds do not have a unique symbol identifier. This module uses the symbols as used on finance.canada.com. The simplest way to fetch the ID for a particular stock/fund is to go to finance.canada.com, search for your particular stock or mutual fund, and note the symbol ID. This is helpfully provided by the site in their returned HTML quote. LABELS RETURNED
Information available from financecanada may include the following labels: method source name symbol currency date nav last price SEE ALSO

NAME
Finance::Quote::Yahoo::USA - Obtain information about stocks and funds in the USA and Canada. SYNOPSIS
use Finance::Quote; $q = Finance::Quote->new; %info = $q->fetch("usa","SGI"); DESCRIPTION
This method provides access to financial information from a number of exhcanges in the United States and Canada. The following methods are available: canada usa yahoo nyse nasdaq vanguard fidelity These methods all use the same information source, and hence can be considered somewhat interchangable. However, the method "yahoo" should be passed to fetch if you wish to obtain information from any source that Yahoo tracks. This method is loaded by default by Finance::Quote, although it can be explicitly loaded by passing the argument "Yahoo::USA" to Finance::Quote->new(). Information returned by this module may be subject to Yahoo's terms and conditions. See http://finance.yahoo.com/ for more information. LABELS RETURNED
This module returns all the standard labels that Yahoo provides, as well as the currency label. See Finance::Quote::Yahoo::Base for more information. BUGS
Yahoo does not make a distinction between the various exchanges in the United States and Canada. For example, it is possible to request a stock using the "NYSE" method and still obtain data even if that stock does not exist on the NYSE but exists on a different exchange. SEE ALSO
