TL;DR

Thread listing 12 Python libraries for free market data covering 170K+ tickers — stocks, crypto, forex, economic indicators. No Bloomberg or expensive APIs needed. The tweet itself is mostly a video/image teaser — the actual library list is in the embedded video. Based on the category, the likely libraries include yfinance (which we already use), along with alternatives worth evaluating.

Key Takeaways

  • We already use yfinance as our primary data provider — this is validation of the approach
  • Worth checking the video for libraries we DON'T know about — potential improvements to our fetcher pipeline
  • Categories mentioned: stocks, crypto, forex, economic indicators — we currently only do stocks + crypto
  • Forex and economic indicator data could enhance our macro-commodities analysis (UUP, FXE, FXY correlations)
