quarterly_earnings & get_earning not working

[mukalaaa]

Describe bug

I cannot get any earning data at all, I tried AAPL and other companies, I always get an error that is not implemented in yfinance. I appreciate any help about this

Simple code that reproduces your problem

import yfinance as yf

Define the ticker

ticker = '7010.SR'

Fetch the stock data

stock = yf.Ticker(ticker)

Get earnings data

earnings = stock.get_earnings()

Print earnings data

print(earnings)

Debug log

It appears that the scraper doesn't even try to provide the earnings:
(yfinance.scrapers.fundamentals; lines 11-35)

class Fundamentals:

	def __init__(self, data: YfData, symbol: str, proxy=None):
    	self._data = data
    	self._symbol = symbol
    	self.proxy = proxy
   	 
    	# Earnings are never set - which is what's causing the error.
    	self._earnings = None
    	self._financials = None
    	self._shares = None

    	self._financials_data = None
    	self._fin_data_quote = None
    	self._basics_already_scraped = False
    	self._financials = Financials(data, symbol)

	@property
	def financials(self) -> "Financials":
    	return self._financials

	@property
	def earnings(self) -> dict:
    	# And then this if statement is true, which throws the error.
    	if self._earnings is None:
        	raise YFNotImplementedError('earnings')
    	return self._earnings
...

Which means that yfinance doesn’t support getting fundamentals at all.

If you're looking for alternatives; I know that the alpha_vantage library supports getting fundamental data. You are limited to 25 api requests/day, though.

Keep in mind that Alpha Vantage has incorrect data for revenue, income, and debt

Not fair. yfinance gets income, cashflow and balance sheet. Earnings in one of those.
