Does anyone know an automated way to get a stock's sectory and industry using Yahoo Apis. I know Yahoo! stores this information, I would like to retrieve it programatically. Thanks Why would you mark down this question. It is clear and consice. 5 people marked it down and no-one answered the quesiton. Interesting that people are willing to criticise yet no-one has the balls to put a decent answer out there. |

Depending on software, there are a lot of possibilities out there to retrieve data. My very subjective opinion: especially for Yahoo a convenient way to retrieve data is to use Python API For Yahoo Finance Stock Data. Follow the link, examples are easy to follow. If need some more input on it, you may consider to read my blog post Hello financial world , where I explain how to retrieve data from Yahoo, represent it graphically and build simple GUIs. It's just too long to copy-paste it here. |
