The problem lies in that CREFBond returns a non-standard format.

Here is the a sample of ACN stock and from CREFBond

The financequote.pl looks for a variable with "last" on it to get the price. tiaacref returns prices in a variable with "price" on it.

Someone with more Perl-fu than me can modify it to look for "price" if "last" is not there.

BTW, this error probably applies to all tiaacred items.

SVN commit 1124502 by conet:

BUG: 234268
Hacked this based on Alvaro's description. The price seems to be fetched now. If this can be written in a prettier way feel free to fix this since I'm not at home with perl.
