Nasdaq Market Data Scraper

Clean, structured records from Nasdaq — no browser, no login, no API key. Pick tickers, the whole market, an earnings window or a news topic and get one JSON record per stock, symbol, earnings event or article, ready for analysis, monitoring or AI pipelines.

Four modes are supported:

• Whole market snapshot — every US-listed stock in a single run: price, change, market cap, country, IPO year, volume, sector and industry.
• Per-symbol bundle — quote info and summary for each ticker, plus the sections you turn on: dividend history, historical prices, institutional holdings and insider trades.
• Earnings calendar — every earnings event for one or more days.
• News — the latest articles matching a keyword.

What you get

• One record per stock — the full screener row for ~7,000 US-listed stocks, fetched from Nasdaq's own API in a single request
• One record per symbol — quote info (companyName, exchange, stockType) and a summary of sector, industry, market cap, P/E, EPS, 52-week range and more
• Dividend history — ex-dividend date, yield, payout ratio and the full dividend history table per symbol (on by default)
• Historical prices — daily OHLCV rows for any date range (optional)
• Institutional holdings — ownership percentage, shares outstanding, total value and the top funds with their market value (optional)
• Insider trades — open-market buy/sell counts over 3 and 12 months and the transaction table (optional)
• Earnings events — date, time, company, market cap, fiscal quarter, consensus EPS forecast and report date
• News articles — title, publisher, image and creation time
• Always fresh — data is fetched live on every run

A note on data availability

Values come from Nasdaq's own API in display format ($333.63, 2.092%, 4,829,159,340.00) — they are strings, not numbers; parse them in your pipeline when you need numeric values. Analyst ratings are not offered because Nasdaq no longer exposes that endpoint. Fields stay empty when the source is empty — nothing is invented.

Quick start

Input:

{
  "symbols": ["AAPL", "MSFT"],
  "includeDividends": true,
  "includeHistorical": true,
  "historicalStartDate": "2026-09-01",
  "includeHoldings": true,
  "includeInsider": true
}

Every symbol becomes one record with the sections you enabled.

Notes

• Values are display strings as published by Nasdaq ($333.63, 2.092%) — convert them in your pipeline when you need numbers.
• Runs are throttled with a small delay between requests and parallel workers; a 500-stock snapshot takes a few seconds.
• This actor performs no login, keeps no session and bypasses nothing — it reads Nasdaq's own public JSON API.

How much does it cost you?

One dataset item per record: each screener stock, symbol bundle, earnings event or news article is one item. You pay per item only when a run actually finishes — failed runs cost nothing.

FAQ

Which exchanges does the screener cover? All US-listed stocks by default; use exchange to narrow it to NYSE, NASDAQ or AMEX.

Can I get the whole market in one run? Yes — Nasdaq's API returns the full list (~7,000 stocks) in a single request, so a full snapshot is one API call plus one dataset item per record.

Why are values strings? Nasdaq publishes display strings ($333.63, 2.092%), and this actor passes them through unchanged rather than guessing formats. Parse them in your pipeline.

Do you offer analyst ratings? No — Nasdaq no longer exposes that endpoint publicly.

What happens if a section fails for one symbol? The symbol record is still returned with the sections that succeeded; the failed section is simply absent.
