> Hi,
> 
> Sorry for sending this solution so late. I am new in Ruby programming!!
> 
> I would like to share my solution with the community.
> 
> I wrote a script that fetches stock prices from Yahoo Finance and compares with purchase price and amount stored in a separate text file.
> 
> In the file stock.txt insert stock name, purchase date, stock price and amount (separated by ";").
> 
> Best regards,

> Be a better pen pal. Text or chat with friends inside Yahoo! Mail. See how.
