map stocks to industry

rsharan

Hi,

I am trying to map stocks to their respective industry. How to go about it using API? For example , I would like to identify AAPL to Technology sector using GICS classification or any other available classification. How I go about it. It is limited to US stocks only

You can use Eikon Data API to retrieve business classifications for both TR and GICS classifications. The code looks like this:

df,err = ek.get_data(
    instruments=['AAPL.O','PTT.BK'],
    fields=['TR.TRBCEconomicSector',
            'TR.TRBCBusinessSector',
            'TR.TRBCIndustryGroup',
            'TR.TRBCIndustry',
            'TR.GICSSector',
            'TR.GICSIndustryGroup',
            'TR.GICSIndustry',
            'TR.GICSSubIndustry'])
df

The output is:
