yfinance returns tidy financial data using the yahoo finance API.
You can install the released version of yfinance from Github with:
remotes::install_github("ljupch0/yfinance")
library(yfinance)
The functions get_income, get_bs and get_cf return a tidy dataframe of financial statement data for a vector of tickers. get_financials combines all three functions and returns all data for the requested tickers.
The functions take in 2 arguments.
ticker accepts a vector of stock tickers like c("AAPL", "MSFT", "GOOG").
report_type can either be "quarterly" or "annual". Note that the free yfinance api returns only four periods, so if report_type = "annual" it will return 4 yearly statements, while report_type = "quarterly" will return the latest 4 quarterly statements.
