This module has been working fine up unitl a few days ago. Now all that is displayed in the stocks I follow are dashes and no update timestamp is listed. Is it possible the url has changes for the yahoo stocks page used in the module?

All I can say at-the-moment is that the MktIndex is working here. If you could check any MM logs available (I use pm2 - log is located in: ~/.pm2/logs/MagicMirror-error.log) to see where things are failing for you.

Apparently, Yahoo has changed the access to their API/site and you may be affected by it. See discussions here:

https://github.com/gadicc/node-yahoo-finance2/issues/764 https://www.npmjs.com/package/yahoo-finance2

I don't know why my installation has been working -- perhaps due to no software updates done since things have been running OK with yahoo-finance2 v2.4.2. I don't know if there is anything I can do.

I upgraded the yahoo-finance2 dependency to the latest (v2.11.2). See if that fixes your issue.

Ted, I swapped out the package.json file with your updated version and the Stock data is still not displaying,

Need some logging info... If you set debug: true, in your config.js for the MMM-MktIndex module, you will get some additional output.

Also, after copying the package.json file, did you execute $ npm install to update module?

I forgot to update the module and after doing that it works now. Thank you very much for the prompt fix to your awesome module.
