AKShare is a Python library providing a unified interface for fetching financial and economic data (stocks, futures, bonds, options, funds, forex, macro indicators, crypto) primarily from Chinese public data sources. Its companion project AKTools exposes AKShare functions as an HTTP API for use from other languages.

Use cases

  • download historical A-share stock prices in Python
  • fetch Chinese futures and options market data
  • get macroeconomic indicators for quantitative research
  • pull fund and bond data for asset-pricing analysis
  • serve financial data over HTTP with AKTools
  • build a quant backtesting data pipeline

When to choose

  • you need free programmatic access to Chinese financial market data
  • you want a simple pip-installable data interface for quant research
  • you need broad coverage across stocks, futures, funds, bonds, and macro data

When to avoid

  • you need guaranteed SLA-backed official market data feeds
  • you require non-Chinese market data as the primary focus
  • you need real-time tick-level streaming data
