Stock Scraper feature

[antoniouaa]

Description

The script fetches the company names and symbols for the S&P500 companies off of Wikipedia and then uses the yfinance library to grab financial information for them for the last 3 months.

The script saves a file to the disk with the symbols and names of the S&P500 companies and then asks the user whether to save the data for each company to the disk or not.

Fixes #51
