Example of usage
Try importing and using it to get the stock price. This time, let's take a look at the stock price of Toyota Motor Corporation. Since the security number is '7203', pass '7203.JP' as the first argument of DataReader and'stooq' as the second argument. I don't really understand'stooq', but I think it's an image of pulling stock prices from a site called'stooq'. (Please do not refer to it)
from pandas_datareader import data
df = data.DataReader('7203.JP', 'stooq')
df.head()
Execution result
I will omit the details, but I was able to get the stock price.
