Hello,
Can someone help me figure out the right way to enter the ticker symbol for
Berkshire Hathaway's class b shares? It seems like every site I use has a
little different syntax. For example, Yahoo finance, the site I'm using for
quotes with Gnucash, uses brk-b. When I use that in the Gnucash Security
Editor, I get an error when using the Price editor to retieve the quote.
I traced the transaction, and Gnucash is including the "-" in the URL. The
relevant field is:
GET /d?f=snl1d1t1c1p2vbapomwerr1dyj1qa2c4&e=.csv&s=BEQGX+STSCX+DODIX+SWANX+VGTSX+INTC+DLTR+MDT+BRK-b+WAT
HTTP/1.1\r\n
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Mark Gannon
