IBM-Python-Project-for-Data-Science

The repository contains 3 projects

Project 1. Extracting Stock Data Using a Web Scraping

Not all stock data is available via API in this project; Use web-scraping to obtain financial data. Using beautiful soup I extracted historical share data from a web-page.

• Downloading the Webpage Using Requests Library
• Parsing Webpage HTML Using BeautifulSoup
• Extracting Data and Building DataFrame

Project 2. Extracting Stock Data Using a Python Library

A company's stock share is a piece of the company more precisely: A stock (also known as equity) is a security that represents the ownership of a fraction of a corporation. This entitles the owner of the stock to a proportion of the corporation's assets and profits equal to how much stock they own. Units of stock are called "shares." An investor can buy a stock and sell it later. If the stock price increases, the investor profits, If it decreases,the investor with incur a loss. Determining the stock price is complex; it depends on the number of outstanding shares, the size of the company's future profits, and much more. People trade stocks throughout the day the stock ticker is a report of the price of a certain stock, updated continuously throughout the trading session by the various stock market exchanges. I assumed the role of a data scientist working for a hedge fund; it's my job to determine any suspicious stock activity. In this project I extracted stock data using a Python library. I used the yfinance library, it allows users to extract data for stocks returning data in a pandas dataframe.
