Bruce,
Not sufficient on macOS X 10.13/perl 5.18. It still heads off to la-la land in the autoload call.

>> It demonstrates with the Examples/currency_rates.pl I pointed GR at earlier so it's something in Finance::Quote. I've been salting that with print statements to try to figure out what's going on and it seems to be failing to load the AlphaVantage currency module at Quote.pm line 421: A print before that line prints and one immediately after doesn't. At line 805 `$this->{currency_rate_method}` is empty so no attempt to get quotes is made.

Also the same command works on Win 11 when formatted correctly :-) None of the tests I ran required a valid AlphaVantage api key, a single x was all that was required.
