Pandas yahoo finance DataReader

Question

I am trying to get the Adj Close prices from Yahoo Finance into a DataFrame. I have all the stocks I want but I am not able to sort on date.

stocks = [\'ORCL         


        

Answer 1

import pandas_datareader.data as web
import datetime    

start = datetime.datetime(2013, 1, 1)
end = datetime.datetime(2016, 1, 27)
df = web.DataReader("GOOGL", 'yahoo', start, end)

dates =[]
for x in range(len(df)):
    newdate = str(df.index[x])
    newdate = newdate[0:10]
    dates.append(newdate)

df['dates'] = dates

print df.head()
print df.tail()

Answer 2

Use dataFrame.index to directly access date or to add an explicit column, use dataFrame["Date"] = dataframe.index

stocks = ['ORCL', 'TSLA', 'IBM','YELP', 'MSFT']
ls_key = 'Adj Close'
start = datetime(2014,1,1)
end = datetime(2014,3,28)    
f = web.DataReader(stocks, 'yahoo',start,end)


cleanData = f.ix[ls_key]
dataFrame = pd.DataFrame(cleanData)
dataFrame["Date"] = dataframe.index
print dataFrame["Date"] ## or print dataFrame.index
