- The
yfinance.Tickermodule describes how to initialize multipleTickerobjects with the following code.
JavaScript
x

import yfinance as yf2
3
tickers = yf.Tickers('msft aapl goog')4
# ^ returns a named tuple of Ticker objects5
6
# access each ticker using (example)7
tickers.msft.info8
tickers.aapl.history(period="1mo")9
tickers.goog.actions10
- The code results in the following error
JavaScript

AttributeError: 'Tickers' object has no attribute 'goog'20
- How can this issue be resolved, because this is the exact code from the
yfinanceGitHub Repo?

Answer
- I’m pretty sure it’s a mistake in the documentation.
tickersis the object holding multipleTickerobjects.- The README is missing the correct method call, which is also
tickers. - Additionally, the ticker symbols data is accessed with uppercase letters as shown in the following code.
- TAB completion at the
.will show the correct available methods - See AttributeError: ‘Tickers’ object has no attribute ‘msft’ #407 and Update README.rst #408 for future details.
Working Code
- The following code produces the expected output
JavaScript

import yfinance as yf2

tickers = yf.Tickers('msft aapl goog')4
print(tickers.tickers.GOOG.actions)5
print(tickers.tickers.AAPL.history(period="1mo"))6
