yahoo.finance.balancesheet URL needs fixed
mediocrepat opened this issue · comments
I had originally posted this under the yahoo.finance.balancesheet fix, but it appears that issue is closed and I wanted to ensure this issue is open. Apologies for the crosspost.
It appears yahoo.finance.balancesheet is broken. It's trying to pull on the below URL, which currently returns a 404.
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/?s=aapl&quarterly
Correct URL should be (example given for AAPL):
Quarterly:
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bs?s=AAPL
Annually:
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bs?s=AAPL&annual
I suspect CashFlow and IncomeStatement are also broken now too. If this gets fixed, I'll post on those respective files.
Would love a fix for this!
I would love to see this fix as well.
I would also love to see this fixed as well, although it seems very unlikely - looking at the history of this. It is frustrating that Yahoo Finance has changed the URLs, so that the code breaks :-( I fear they have made other changes, which makes the fixing task more than just a matter of updating the URL build up in the code :-(
Check out gist below until the pull request gets approved:

Should work - let me know if not and I'll fix it.
Great - thanks! Looking forward to the approval of the pull request.
Thx canada4663 - the pull request finally went through and the YQL console for balancesheet now works nicely :-)
no problem!!
do you know any way of scraping / extracting the currency and/or exchange from a symbol on yahoo.finance?

This is currently broken (2014-08-21)
It returns an error: "Exception while converting tidy sanitized html to Dom"
I'm not sure if the code needs to be fixed or if Yahoo need to fix YQL itself?
Anyone?
Could this trunghung@99094ed be causing the issue??
PS: Also applies to finance.incomestatement and finance.cashflow.
