It means that there was an error in the price retrieval that GnuCash doesn't
have enough information about to report more directly. The most usual reason is
a commodity (security) with mis-configured retrieval information. Did you edit
or add any in the last few days?
If it's a general yahoo-json problem you can check it with gnc-fq-dump. Open
Terminal and run
/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq-dump yahoo_json AAPL
You should get something like
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
symbol: AAPL <=== required
date: 02/15/2019 <=== recommended
currency: USD <=== required
last: 170.42 <=\
nav: <=== one of these
price: <=/
timezone: <=== optional
