You’re not getting updated quotes for those securities.
The first one indicates that the symbol you created in the Security Editor is wrong.
The second indicates that you told the Security Editor to use Alphavantage to retrieve the quote but you don’t have an Alphavantage API key.

The remainder indicate a problem with the ASX quote requests from  Finance::Quote. I replicated that locally and opened https://github.com/finance-quote/finance-quote/issues/497 to report it.
