How to Use StockDataLoader

The StockDataLoader class provides an easy way to fetch and process stock data from the Seeking Alpha API. Here's a quick guide on how to use it:

1. Import the class:

   from stock_data_loader import StockDataLoader
   

2. Create an instance of the loader:

   loader = StockDataLoader()
   

3. Prepare a list of stock symbols you want to fetch data for:

   symbols = ['AAPL', 'GOOGL', 'MSFT', 'AMZN']
   

4. Use the load_symbol_data method to fetch and process the data:

   result_df = loader.load_symbol_data(symbols)
   

5. The result is a pandas DataFrame. You can now work with this data:

   print(result_df)
   

Example:

from stock_data_loader import StockDataLoader

loader = StockDataLoader()
symbols = ['AAPL', 'GOOGL', 'MSFT', 'AMZN']
result_df = loader.load_symbol_data(symbols)

# Print the first few rows of the result
print(result_df.head())

# Save the result to a CSV file
result_df.to_csv('stock_data.csv', index=False)

This will fetch data for the specified symbols, process it, and return a DataFrame with various attributes like symbol, name, follower count, exchange, and content counters for analysis, news, transcripts, etc.
