Following up on this: I definitely am unable to look up any bonds by CUSIP at Alphavantage. I've spot-checked a number of the other sources listed via gnc-fq-dump and so far have had no luck, so I'd love it if someone knows what source to use.
To give a specific example: 34540TWD0 is the cusip for a Ford Motor Credit bond maturing in 2025 (you can look that up here: https://www.empirasign.com/findabond/34540TWD0/). But none of the Finance::Quote sources I've looked at so far can resolve that. Anyone have any ideas? (This is clearly an issue with Finance::Quote and not GnuCash proper, but I'm hoping someone else has had this issue and found a solution!) -Peter On Thu, Jun 4, 2020 at 5:43 AM Chris Good <goodchri...@gmail.com> wrote: > Message: 7 > Date: Wed, 3 Jun 2020 10:52:18 -0400 > From: peterb <pet...@gmail.com> > To: gnucash-user@gnucash.org > Subject: [GNC] Can Finance::Quote look up bond prices by CUSIP? > Message-ID: > < > camvdbj7dlfyus+fjyz0n-9hygrr-zpsabptqnggybjzmbst...@mail.gmail.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" > > Can Finance::Quote be used to look up bond prices?
