A few more fixes and additions to Finance::Quote. For those who are 
comfortable with the interim releases, 1.61_03 has been uploaded to CPAN.

https://www.cpan.org/modules/by-authors/id/B/BP/BPSCHUCK/Finance-Quote-1.61_03.tar.gz

Or just "BPSCHUCK/Finance-Quote-1.61_03.tar.gz" when installing via 
"cpan" or "cpanm".

The Fool.pm module has been fixed (but like Yahoo, who knows for how 
long?), method "fool". For the time being, only returns data for 
securities on NYSE, Nasdaq, and OTC exchanges.

A new module for US traded stocks, StockData.pm, with default method 
"stockdata". This requires an API token from https://www.stockdata.org/. 
If passed in as an environment variable, set "STOCKDATA_API_KEY" to your 
token. Once installed "perldoc Finance::Quote::StockData" will display 
more information.

I also discovered that the TwelveData module was not working because the 
method "twelvedata" was not returning a value for price or last. This is 
another module that requires an API, this one from 
https://twelvedata.com/. Set environment variable "TWELVEDATA_API_KEY" 
to your token. Once installed "perldoc Finance::Quote::TwelveData" will 
display more information.

Regards,
