Title:
Gnome-Applets (Invest) - ^DJI symbol stopped
As of a few days ago, the solution (including symbols ^DJI and INDU) has

Digging further, it turns out Yahoo Finance contractually can no longer
provide ^DJI.

Gnome-Applets (Invest) - ^DJI symbol
Okay, I figured it out. This is NOT a bug after all.
