DESCRIPTION

17       This module obtains information from the Australian Stock Exchange
18       http://www.asx.com.au/.  All Australian stocks and indicies are
19       available.  Indexes start with the letter 'X'.  For example, the All
20       Ordinaries is "XAO".
21
22       This module is loaded by default on a Finance::Quote object.  It's also
23       possible to load it explicity by placing "ASX" in the argument list to
24       Finance::Quote->new().
25
26       This module provides both the "asx" and "australia" fetch methods.
27       Please use the "australia" fetch method if you wish to have failover
28       with other sources for Australian stocks (such as Yahoo).  Using the
29       "asx" method will guarantee that your information only comes from the
30       Australian Stock Exchange.
31
32       Information returned by this module is governed by the Australian Stock
33       Exchange's terms and conditions.
34
