Description
Since 2021-07-01, reading data from Yahoo fails with a nondescript error message.
Calling the URL (see RemoteDataError below) directly from a browser succeeds. wget returns error 404: Not Found.
Interesting is the name of the background image in the HTML message: "s.yimg.com/nn/img/sad-panda-201402200631.png"
Pandas datareader version 0.9.0
Code snippet:
import pandas as pd
import pandas_datareader as pdr
# start date is arbitrary
pdr.DataReader('GOOGL', data_source='yahoo', start='2021-07-01')
