I am not talking about stock prices, but rather EPS, P/E and etc.
And if it is, maybe there are some easier ways than direct webscrapping.



Thanks a lot for your answers

  • I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is about legal issues instead of directly about programming / coding / programming tools / software algorithms.
