pandas_datareader.data.DataReader can no longer access stooq

[Avaninder Bhaghayath]

As of 9:30 or so EST on 12/25, the DataReader method could not retrieve data from stooq. It returned a blank dataframe. Is there any other option for getting the same data formatted similarly? I have also tested pandas_datareader.get_data_stooq, and this method does not seem to work either.

Update: I am now using the pandas_datareader.get_data_tiingo method, which is working as intended.

Observation - I am able to use stooq to read data (when yahoo returns error). Noted that stock, like 2222.SR Saudi Aramco will return empty df because cannot be found in stooq (check symbol https://stooq.com/db/h/). Quick fix is to add dropna() after getting the stooq df.

import pandas_datareader.data as web

data = web.DataReader(tickers, "stooq", start, end)['Close']
data = data.dropna()

This also might be fixed by PR #953
If you could test it out by locally installing my version of the fix that would greatly help :)

I experienced the same issue today. Retrieves an empty DataFrame. Tried dropna() and it didn't solve for me.

import pandas_datareader.data as web
data = web.DataReader('AAPL', 'stooq')
print (data)

Empty DataFrame
