Go through all of your securities and make sure that all of them are set to retrieve from known good sources. If it's still failing, try disabling retrieval on half. If that succeeds, try the other half; if it fails disable half of those remaining. Keep repeating that until you've identified one security that causes the crash. The cause may be immediately apparent, like an invalid source. If not, report back with the security and source that fails.

Looks like a new TSP fund was added and the Finance::Quote::TSP module can't parse the table anymore. Someone has filed a bug report on it already (https://github.com/finance-quote/finance-quote/issues/145).

Thanks for closing the loop, but please remember to always copy the list.
