This site describes what was offered by yahoo:

You have to access separate pages for every stock in your portfolio.
Formerly one could string the entire portfolio as:

I looked at nasdaq some time ago. As I remember the quote site used
color to represent positive/negative change. That color didn't survive
scraping the page.

> Actually, there is a cheaper way than has been explained. Shop on the tracfone site and go to airtime basic service plans. Put the cheapest plan in your cart (though it should not matter which one you put in). They will then give you an option for buying a full year of time for $49.95. Delete the first plan you put in the cart!!! The full year for $49.95 will stay in the cart! Buy it. That is what I did today. I had over 3,000 minutes on my cell phone which I only have for emergencies and leave it in my car. I did not need any more time. I only paid $49.95 + tax and got another full year. You do not have to buy more minutes!
 
Wow, that worked great, thanks for that!
