[GNC] AlphaVantage Stock Quotes

[Alun Champion]

Hmm, that has not been my observation but I'm sure there are some nuances,
for me it shows the last price during the trading day (as in it doesn't
show after market prices) but the call can happen any time, e.g. here is
the demo linl:
https://www.alphavantage.co/query?function=BATCH_STOCK_QUOTES&symbols=MSFT,FB,AAPL&apikey=demo
and it shows MSFT, FB as of 16:01 yesterday. This is the same when I use my
API Key.
   -A.
