Binder does not open and Yahoo Finance no longer supported. Which library to use?

[mger1608]

Hello,

I have been trying to get started with the case studies in the book using both the Binder notebooks and Jupyter notebooks provided through supplemental GitHub material. When I try to create a Binder instance, I receive the following error:

` error: subprocess-exited-with-error

I tried poking around the documentation but did not see any good way to implement the recommended 'PEP 57 installer'.

Then I tried using the Jupyter notebooks for the "Stock Price Prediction" case. Unfortunately, Yahoo finance is no longer supported, yfinance is a fragile web scraper substitute, and quandl did not work either.

What is the recommended path forward here? Unfortunately, I do not have a developer background and come more from the finance side. I am happy to explore the technical architecture and requirements, but feel like I am a bit outside my domain of expertise.
