Did Oil Just Jump Almost $7.00? Yahoo Error?

I often forget to look at price of oil, especially when it drops below $90, but I just checked Yahoo. Is that correct: up $6.76 (7.82%)?

Fastest way to confirm: check share price of ... let's pick one ... CLR: up 2%; EOG: up 1%.
Majors not moving much at all.

Now oil is back to a more reasonable jump, up $2.00. Yahoo has been really acting strangely with regard to its oil price crawler this past couple of weeks. For several days it did not move at all, and then today, extremely wide moves.

  1. The CNBC app for iPad is nice – the commodities tab gives a small graph and daily range for oil prices.

    1. Thank you. If I knew how to write "apps," I can think of a number of Bakken-centric apps that might be nice.
