How to get Industry Data from Yahoo Finance using Python?

Question

I currently have some tickers and data from yahoo finance gained through datareader for Python. I have got everything for the dataframe in relation to numbers except the industry from the profile of the ticker. I was wondering if there is any code that would work that would show the industry for the following ticker displayed through the profile page of yahoo?

Code Below:

import pandas_datareader.data as pdr

Tickers=['SBUX','TLRY']

SD='2005-01-31'

ED='2018-12-31'

TickerW=pdr.datareader(Tickers,'yahoo',SD,ED)

TickerW.head()

Answer 1

This cannot be done with pandas_datareader see here . You could use yfinance instead to get the sector.

as an example try:

import yfinance as yf

sbux = yf.Ticker("SBUX")
tlry = yf.Ticker("TLRY")

print(sbux.info['sector'])
print(tlry.info['sector'])
