indices is a console application that fetches stock market quotes for all countries around the world. The result is a list of countries with the index variations. This result can be used to create an SVG world map that is colored depending on the variation.

Example of result


fr=-2.60
ie=-1.58
nl=-2.73
be=-2.45
lu=-0.26
fi=+1.80
