This has been a problem with AlphaVantage since they started throttling 
responses for those using the free API key.

Hmm... how did 1.5301 get into a flatpak? The official F::Q releases are 
1.xx with only 2 digits following the major release number. Crap... 
looks like my screw-up. I uploaded 1.5301 instead of 1.53_01, which was 
a pre-release of 1.54. I did the same for 1.5402 today and it's 
currently being deleted. Juggling too many tasks at once. Sorry all.

As stated in another thread pertaining to this issue, find the proper 
YahooJSON.pm file and edit it changing

my $YIND_URL_HEAD = 
'https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v7/finance/quote?symbols=';

to

my $YIND_URL_HEAD = 
'https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v6/finance/quote?symbols=';

Quick fix seems to work.

New file with the quick fix uploaded to CPAN - 
https://www.cpan.org/authors/id/B/BP/BPSCHUCK/Finance-Quote-1.54_03.tar.gz.

It can be installed in cpan as BPSCHUCK/Finance-Quote-1.54_03.tar.gz.
