CNBC just deleted 5 pages showing the current and historical 5 year Credit Default Swaps for:

- JPMorgan, deleted URL: https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/JPMCD5

- Bank of America, deleted URL: https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/BACCD5

- PNC, deleted URL: https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/PNCCD5

- Truist Financial, deleted URL: https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/TFCCD5

- Wells Fargo, deleted URL: https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/WFCCD5

Not deleted: Goldman Sachs https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/GSCD5, Deutsche Bank https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/DBCD5 .

You can easily use archive.org to check for yourself example: https://web.archive.org/web/20221009203204/https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/BACCD5

This might not seem like a big thing, but it is! This was one of the very few sources were you could see current credit default swaps data online. I would love to get an explanation from CNBC.

EDIT: I was actively crawling the pages in question, it did work until at least Friday, 24 March 2023 23:55:35 after that the crawling paused for the weekend as the markets are closed. So this change occurred during the weekend.
