Try the html-parsing library from PLaneT.
#lang racket
(require net/url (planet neil/html-parsing:2:0)
(planet jim/sxml-match:1:1/sxml-match))
(html->xexp
(get-pure-port
(string->url "http://www.tijd.be/beurzen/Societe_Generale.360017048";)))
Then take a look at sxml-match when you need to work with the result.
