The official Python client library for the Finnhub API, which provides institutional-grade financial data including real-time stock prices, company fundamentals, ETF holdings, and alternative data.

Use cases

- get company fundamentals and financial statements for tickers
- pull earnings estimates and analyst recommendation trends
- download company news and news sentiment data
- query crypto and forex exchange symbols
- build a stock analysis or trading script with market data
- convert stock candle responses into pandas dataframes
When to choose
