OK. That is recorded. What's more, we've finally got your singaporean stocks automatically updating in price. We're going of bloomberg's businessweek and importing the xml field that the price appears in. (The SGX stock exchange page is... difficult. :( )

Also, we're converting the price of your US stock to SGD on the fly. So anytime you look at it, it's converted to the daily price of the US's yesterday (because we're in the future and google is US-centric, it ignores us and bases the price on the US date and time :( oh well.)
