Warning: this project is not maintained and may be outdated.
This is a small project which aims to create a local SQL databse of stock prices for use in research projects, accompanying a blog post I wrote on the subject.
When I wrote the code, the best way to get free stock data was pandas-datareader
with fix-yahoo-finance
. Nowadays, that is no longer necessary thanks to the excellent yfinance
library (link). The code in yahoo_price_download.py
should probably be updated.
