Is it legal to scrape Yahoo Finance?

The Actor reads public Yahoo Finance market data: quotes, price history and company fundamentals. It collects no personal data, so no phone numbers, names or addresses are involved and there is nothing to strip under GDPR. Prices are what Yahoo Finance shows, real-time for many US stocks and crypto and delayed for some exchanges; the output is not investment advice. You remain responsible for how you use the data and for Yahoo's terms. This is an independent tool, not affiliated with Yahoo.
