RemoteDataError: Unable to read URL: https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/SPY/history
when trying to get a dataframe:
df = pandas_datareader.yahoo.daily.YahooDailyReader('SPY').read()
error
RemoteDataError: Unable to read URL: https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/SPY/history?period1=1470542400&period2=1628308799&interval=1d&frequency=1d&filter=history
expected result: a dataframe with prices
Interestingly, it works with curl and aria2c but not with wget or DataReader.
I'm running the example here: https://pandas-datareader.readthedocs.io/en/latest/remote_data.html#yahoo-finance-data and it fails:
df = web.DataReader('GE', 'yahoo', start='2019-09-10', end='2019-10-09')

As szotsaki mentions, strange since clicking through the URL is fine – is yahoo blocking these requests now?
Was anyone able to figure this issue? I am facing the same issue when trying to get data from famafrench lib.
web.DataReader('F-F_Research_Data_Factors_2x3', famafrench)
