Hi R Helpers,
I recently tried to take advantage of the ability to download all the
tickers in the S&P 500 using the functionality of tidyquant, but it threw
an error.
For summary, the set of commands that I ran was
library(tidyquant)
tq_index_options()
tq_index("SP500")
sessionInfo()
R feedback including error message and sessionInfo are provided below.
Guidance would be appreciated.
