Yahoo Finance Scraper

Extract real-time stock prices, historical price data and company fundamentals from Yahoo Finance by ticker symbol — no login, no API key, no rate-limit headaches. This Yahoo Finance scraper turns any list of tickers (stocks, ETFs, indices, currencies, crypto) into clean structured JSON: quotes, market cap, P/E, EPS, 52-week range, dividends, margins, ROE, debt, cash flow, analyst targets and full OHLCV time series.

Built for analysts, quants, fintech builders and investors who need reliable stock market data without paying for an expensive financial data API. Feed it AAPL, MSFT, TSLA (or 500 symbols) and get a tidy dataset you can export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull straight from the Apify API.

FAQ

Do I need a Yahoo Finance API key or account? No. The actor requires no login or API key.

Which symbols are supported? Anything Yahoo Finance lists: stocks, ETFs, mutual funds, indices (^GSPC), currencies (EURUSD=X) and crypto (BTC-USD).

How fresh is the price data? Quotes reflect Yahoo's real-time/near-real-time regular market price at the moment of the run.

Can I get many tickers at once? Yes. Quotes are fetched in batches, so large symbol lists run efficiently.

What if a symbol is invalid? It is saved with empty fields so your dataset stays aligned with your input list.
