For those comfortable with locating and editing the YahooJSON.pm module 
manually I have a quick fix. If you have F::Q v1.57 change the lines 
defining $YIND_URL_HEAD and $YIND_URL_TAIL (lines 38 and 39) to:

my $YIND_URL_HEAD = 
'https://query2.finance.yahoo.com/v11/finance/quoteSummary/?symbol=';
my $YIND_URL_TAIL = '&modules=price,summaryDetail,defaultKeyStatistics';

Or you can wait for new release to be pushed to CPAN.

Interesting. It also returns a bad value for Genpact Limited (G), but 
not Hyatt Hotels (H). Will need to open an issue and hopefully Vincent 
(who originally wrote the YahooWeb module) will take a look.

Thanks all.
