Hello,
As an expert in data scraping and financial data management, I can deliver a robust solution to extract stock prices from Yahoo Finance, covering both NYSE and NASDAQ. Using Python and its powerful libraries, I will create an efficient, repeatable system tailored to your requirements.
The process begins with setting up a web scraper using `BeautifulSoup` or `lxml` for HTML parsing, and `requests` for accessing Yahoo Finance data. For real-time and historical stock prices, I will integrate `yfinance`, a reliable Python library specifically designed for extracting financial data. The scraper will be designed to handle periodic execution, ensuring data is updated regularly.
Scraped data will be stored in a MySQL database, leveraging the `INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE` functionality to handle duplicates seamlessly. Using Python's `pymysql` or `sqlalchemy`, I will establish a secure and efficient connection between the scraper and the database.
The final deliverable will include a fully functional script, a prototype for review, and documentation for ease of use.
