How Web Scraping Is Used To Extract Yahoo Finance

  1. 1

    Nice post 🎉
    Some Questions here and there:

    Is it more convenient if you use Beautiful Soup instead of LXML?

    I used to scrap balance sheet info from Yahoo finance to create a strategy based on Magic Formula and after some iterations, Yahoo Finance blocks the date fetch even if you run it through several IP nodes. You get blank output. Do you get the same problem here?

    Isn't it more convenient for standard data input such as P/E , Price, Market cap, beta, etc. to go with yfinance or YahooFinance libraries?
