Index vs Multi-Index (Must-Know for Multi-Stock Users)
What is an Index?
In pandas, an index is the label (usually a date) for each row.
Example with single stock:
Index(['Open', 'High', 'Low', 'Close', 'Adj Close', 'Volume'], dtype='object')What is a Multi-Index?
When you download multiple stocks, yfinance returns a MultiIndex:
One level for the metric (Open, Close, etc.), and one for the ticker (AAPL, MSFT, etc.).
df = yf.download(["AAPL","TSLA"], period="1mo")
print(df.columns)Output
MultiIndex([( 'Close', 'AAPL'),
( 'Close', 'TSLA'),
( 'High', 'AAPL'),
( 'High', 'TSLA'),
( 'Low', 'AAPL'),
( 'Low', 'TSLA'),
( 'Open', 'AAPL'),
( 'Open', 'TSLA'),
('Volume', 'AAPL'),
('Volume', 'TSLA')],
names=['Price', 'Ticker'])Why Use MultiIndex?
- Efficient way to represent multi-dimensional data
- Easy to compare multiple stocks side-by-side
- You can slice easily using
.xs()(cross-section)
🔄 Extract a Single Stock:
aapl = df.xs('AAPL', axis=1, level=1)
aapl
Search & News
search = yf.Search("Tesla", news_count=5, include_research=True)
print("Search:")
for quote in search.quotes:
print(quote['symbol'], quote['shortname'])
print("\nNews:")
for news in search.news:
print(news['title'])
