Flavio, That page says the you need perl, JSON::Parse, and Finance::Quote, but it doesn’t say anything about how to get them. What did you do?
At this point I think it’s worthwhile to see if you installed Finance::Quote at all. Run find / -x -name Quote.pm It will take a while, it’s going to search all of your SSD. If you’d used Homebrew to install perl you’ll find it in /opt/homebrew/bin. If you’ve run the Homebrew installer it will have modified your shell startup to place that first in $PATH so that which perl would return /opt/homebrew/bin/perl` instead of /usr/bin/perl.
