Error encountered when running tutorial notebook on Google colab

[Jushan-Randy-Chen]

Hi,

I tried running the tutorial in Google colab (the first tutorial notebook), and everything at the beginning ran without errors until this line

df = YahooDownloader(start_date = TRAIN_START_DATE,
                     end_date = TRADE_END_DATE,
                     ticker_list = config_tickers.DOW_30_TICKER).fetch_data()

I'm getting the following error:

Is yahooDownloader broken?
