Inspiration
I trade stocks. When I see the earnings report date of a company I'm interested in, usually I'm already too late. So, I wanted to build a tool that can gather several companies' earnings report dates in a simplified fashion.
What it does
The python program takes an input of a list of tickers and goes onto nasdaq.com and parses through its HTML and retrieves the relevant data of the expected earnings report dates and the EPS consensus.
How I built it
I made the Python program using PyCharm. I made the website using a bootrap template and added some other HTML elements for my usage case
Challenges I ran into
Implementing Python with HTML/CSS. Didn't have enough time to get a python framework set up.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
The Python program works and is actually useful to me because it provides a type of service that may have been not as optimal and/or costs money.
What I learned
I learned a bit about data scraping.
What's next for Earnings Tracker
Get a website fully set up and be fully integrated with the Python program.
