Agreed, let's wait for Mordasius' reaction - he can judge best if this solution has no downsides we might have missed.

As a bonus: I found this Rainmeter XML parser plugin from e2e8 at github. I believe this would make life even easier for grabbing our stock data from the cnbc.com xml feed (easier compared to REGEX). Only this plugin is 5 years old, not sure if it still works with the current Rainmeter release? Just an idea!
Just for fun, to help you both (the regex is not that hard to handle, see the Item and the Lookahead Assertion parts here), my own bonus - a very basic sample that can be built upon...Details in the comments. Change the symbols variable to get other data. Keep the update related options unchanged if by any chance you think of doing animations in the skin (only change the Update variable if you need a lower update in the skin, the WebParsers update frequency won't be affected). Add similar corresponding measures / meters to retrieve the value of other fields from the interrogated .xml result.
