πΈ NAME πΈ
Finance::Quote::GoogleWeb β Obtain quotes from Google Finance Web Pages. That's the whole NAME section, bestie, and hiii β this is Finance...oogleWeb(3), the User Contributed Perl Documentation page for it. We're gonna make it make sense, no cap. π«Ά
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
okay so the whole ritual is literally this:
use Finance::Quote;
$q = Finance::Quote->new;
%info = $q->fetch("googleweb", "aapl"); # Only query googleweb
%info = $q->fetch("nyse", "ge"); # Failover to other sources OK.
The first fetch is the βonly query googlewebβ vibe β the comment says # Only query googleweb and it means it. The second one is the βfailover to other sources is OKβ vibe, and the comment says # Failover to other sources OK. fr fr. π₯
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
This module fetches information from <https://www.google.com/finance/>. Lowkey iconic source, ngl.
It's loaded by default on a Finance::Quote object β it's giving default-loaded main character energy. You can also load it explicitly by placing "googleweb" in the argument list to Finance::Quote->new(). π
This module provides "googleweb", "bats", "nyse", and "nasdaq" fetch methods. That's the whole method lineup, periodt.

U.S. Mutual Funds quotes can also be retrieved with this module. Obsessed. π
Signed off with perl v5.32.1 and dated 2026-10-26; the footer line also says Finance...oogleWeb(3), so that's the whole page. Bye bestie, go fetch those quotes π
