QUESTION
I'm creating a stock screener based on fundamental metrics using yahoofinancials module.
Below code gives output in multidimensional dictionary format that I'm not able to convert into dataframe format for further analysis.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Nov-21 at 14:32You can use list comprehension to iterate over the dictionaries from that particular ticker
and use Pandas concat
to concatenate the data along the columns axis (axis=1
). Then, use rename_axis
and reset_index
to convert the index to a column with the desired name. Create a new column with the ticker
name at the first position using insert
.

...ANSWER
Answered 2021-May-16 at 16:53It should work the way you are using it. The possible issue may be the environmental change. By looking at the location of the yahoofinancials library in pip, I think you installed it in Virtual Environment and maybe your other libraries are in your global environment. Check if you have activated your virtual environment or try installing yahoofinancials in the global environment.
QUESTION
I'm trying to download data with yahoo finance module for Income Statement and transform into flat data frame. I have it working with code below. But I wondered if there was a better way for me to build data frame for 22 columns of figures for multiple tickers/periods. In the code below I've referenced just a small number of keys (items) using the the key name and then appending data to lists before zipping them up at the end of the iteration.
What I would prefer would to be loop through lists/dicts and use the keys for the column name without having to literal specify each column. This is tricky as this data has many layers Ticker (Dict)-> Period (List) -> Item (Dict). I've tried using the keys/value in a for loop but struggling to get that working due to lists of dicts. Any ideas?
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Mar-07 at 16:09You don't use the right structure, you don't need any list(zip(...)), you must learn to use dictionaries and not only lists. And you've got to know that a DataFrame, is exactly like a dictionary that looks like :
QUESTION
I tried to scrape the quarterly financial reports (income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement) for >500 companies via Yahoo Finance. The problem I face is that the scrapers yahoofinancials or yahoo_fin retreive values which are incorrect.
E.g. for the ticker 'ABB', they retreive an EBIT of CHF 512'000'000 on the 31.12.2020. However, on the company's page, the respecitve EBIT is CHF 299,000 k.
Did anybody else experience the same issues and find a solution?

I'm trying to download the min initial investment for a mutual fund. I can find it on yahoo financials at
https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/QALTX/purchase-info?p=QALTX
I tried using the yahoofinancials module, but it only seems to be returning data for get_historical_price_data. the other extensions only seem to return None. does anyone know why the extension below is returning None? also do you know what extension I should use to get the min initial investment, or can you suggest how else to download it?
code:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Feb-28 at 04:32I've just tested this, and your code is returning data for me. However, the minimum initial investment does not seem like something that is gathered by this library in my review of the source code. I could be wrong, but I didn't find it.
The short code below will return the "Min Initial Investment" for this particular URL, but I'm not making any guarantee that this code will work for other mutual funds. It should work, but I leave that to someone else to test.
