Finance::Quote::Yahoo::Asia - Fetch quotes from Yahoo Asia

SYNOPSIS

Top

    use Finance::Quote;
    $q = Finance::Quote->new;

    %info = $q->fetch("asia","CREA.SI"); # Failover to other methods ok.
    %info = $q->fetch("yahoo_asia","CREA.SI"); # Use this module only.

DESCRIPTION

Top

This module fetches information from Yahoo Asia. Symbols should be provided in the format "SYMBOL.EXCHANGE", where the exchange code is one of the following:

	SI - Singapore
	BO - Bombay
	JK - Jakarta
	HK - Hong Kong
	NS - India
	KS - Korea
	KL - Kuala Lumpur
	NZ - New Zealand
	SS - Shanghai
	SZ - Shenzhen
	TW - Taiwan
	TH - Thailand

This module provides both the "asia" and "yahoo_asia" methods. The "asia" method should be used if failover methods are desirable. The "yahoo_asia" method should be used you desire to only fetch information from Yahoo Europe.

Stocks are returned in the currency of the local exchange. You can use Finance::Quote's set_currency() feature to change the currency in which information is returned.

This module is loaded by default by Finance::Quote, but can be loaded explicitly by specifying the parameter "Yahoo::Asia" to Finance::Quote->new().

Information obtained by this module may be covered by Yahoo's terms and conditions. See http://sg.finance.yahoo.com/ for more details.

LABELS RETURNED

Top

This module returns all the standard labels (where available) provided by Yahoo. See Finance::Quote::Yahoo::Base for a list of these. The currency label is also returned.

BUGS

The currency of each exchange has not been thoroughly confirmed. If you find an exchange is returning in an incorrect exchange, please use the bug tool at http://sourceforge.net/projects/finance-quote to report it.
