In this particular problem, I have a very long list of tickers for which I want to retrieve some of the financial information from yahoo finance website using python:
here is the list:

and then what I am doing is as below in which I want to get Market Capitalization for each of the tickers in the above list:
from pandas_datareader import data
import pandas as pd
tickers = tick[0:30]
dat = data.get_quote_yahoo(tickers)['marketCap']
print(dat)
I am able to fetch 20-30 tickers using above code, but if I try to pull all, the code throws an error "request timed out" and "list out of range" etc.
Then I tried to fetch data one by one using for loop as below:
f = pd.DataFrame(columns=["Ticker", "MarketCapINR"])
columns = list(df)
for tick in ticks:
dat = data.get_quote_yahoo(tick)['marketCap']
zipped = zip(columns, dat)
a_dictionary = dict(zipped)
df = df.append(a_dictionary, ignore_index=True)
This returned me two errors, one of these is list out of bound and another (when I tried to shorten the length of list using 'slicing'), request timed out.
Is there a way out, to get all the data (ticker names in first column and MarketCap values in second column of a pandas dataframe) ??
..
Here's a solution using a package called yahooquery. Disclaimer: I am the author of the package.
from yahooquery import Ticker
import pandas as pd
tickers = [...] # Use your list above
t = Ticker(tickers)
data = t.quotes
df = pd.DataFrame(data).T
df['marketCap']
OMKAR.BO 4750000
KCLINFRA.BO 26331000
MERMETL.BO 11472136
PRIMIND.BO 22697430
VISIONCO.BO 14777874
...
CANOPYFIN.BO 93859304
FMEC.BO 10542380
CITL.BO NaN
YORKEXP.BO 57503880
MEWATZI.BO 51200000

I came across a dataset of Twitter users (Kaggle Source) but I have found that the dataset has a rather strange format. It contains a row with column headers, and then rows of what are essentially JSON arrays. The dataset is also quite large which makes it very difficult to convert the entire file into JSON objects.
What is a good way to load this data into Python, preferably a Pandas Dataframe?
Example of Data
id,screenName,tags,avatar,followersCount,friendsCount,lang,lastSeen,tweetId,friends

Safer approach:

columns, *rows = [row.split(',',9) for row in f.read().split('\n')]
df = pd.DataFrame(rows, columns=columns)

df['tags'] = df['tags'].apply(lambda x: json.loads(x))
Here is my function:
def get_historical_closes(ticker, start_date, end_date):
my_dir = '/home/manish/Desktop/Equity/subset'
os.chdir(my_dir)
dfs = []
for files in glob.glob('*.txt'):
dfs.append(pd.read_csv(files, names = ['Ticker', 'Date', 'Open', 'High', 'Low', 'Close', 'Volume', 'Null'], parse_dates = [1]))
p = pd.concat(dfs)
d = p.reset_index(['Date', 'Ticker', 'Close'])
pivoted = d.pivot_table(index = ['Date'], columns =['Ticker'])
pivoted.columns = pivoted.columns.droplevel(0)
return pivoted
closes = get_historical_closes(['LT' or 'HDFC'or 'ACC'], '1999-01-01', '2014-12-31')
My problem is I just want to get data for a few rows namely, data for LT, HDFC and ACC for all the dates, but when I execute the function, I am getting data for all the rows (approx. 1500 nos.)
How can I slice the dataframe, so that I get only selected rows and not the entire dataframe?
Raw input data is a collection of text files as so:

I use EdChum code from his comment and add some clarification. I think the main problem is d is output dataframe d cannot be looped in cycle for, if you need one output from all *.txt files.
import pandas as pd
import glob
def get_historical_closes(ticker, start_date, end_date):
dfs = []
#create empty df for output
d = pd.DataFrame()
#glob can use path with *.txt - see http://stackoverflow.com/a/3215392/2901002
for files in glob.glob('/home/manish/Desktop/Equity/subset/*.txt'):
#added index_col for multiindex df
dfs.append(pd.read_csv(files, index_col=['Date', 'Ticker', 'Close'], names = ['Ticker', 'Date', 'Open', 'High', 'Low', 'Close', 'Volume', 'Null'], parse_dates = [1]))
p = pd.concat(dfs)
#d is output from all .txt files, so cannot be looped in cycle for
d = p.reset_index(['Date', 'Ticker', 'Close'])
d = d[(d['Ticker'].isin(ticker)) & (d['Date'] > start_date) & (d['Date'] < end_date)]
pivoted = d.pivot_table(index = ['Date'], columns =['Ticker'])
pivoted.columns = pivoted.columns.droplevel(0)
return pivoted
#function isin need list of columns, so 'or' can be replaced by ','
#arguments are changed for testing: 'HDFC' to 'AGCNET' and end_date '2014-12-31' to '2015-12-31'
closes = get_historical_closes(['LT','AGCNET','ACC'], '1999-01-01', '2015-12-31')
print closes
