Stock Quote Sidebar is a WordPress plugin/widget that allows you to put a list of stock quotes in your sidebar (or anywhere you want, really).
The stock symbol, last price, and change (in dollars and/or percent) are displayed in a tabular format. The full company name is displayed in a tooltip when the symbol is moused-over. The date and time of the first quote in the list is displayed at the bottom of the list.
When a user hovers over the day's change, a tooltip displays a chart of the stock's performance over a configurable time period.
Other functions include placing a separator bar between subsets of stock quotes, changing the date/time format, and displaying both static quotes and random selections from a list of symbols.
