canada usa yahoo nyse nasdaq vanguard fidelityThese 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 RETURNEDThis module returns all the standard labels that Yahoo provides, as well as the currency label. See Finance::Quote::Yahoo::Base for more information.BUGSYahoo 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 ALSOYahoo Finance, http://finance.yahoo.com/Finance::Quote::Yahoo::Base
