Google Trends x Yahoo Finance Analysis in Python

Python has a multitude of libraries dedicated to scraping the internet in various ways. For example, Google Trends is a product produced by Google that analyzes search history and publishes the popularity of search terms over time. One user created an algorithm to pull trend data from Google using Python in a package called pytrends. Another such library uses Python to pull stock information from Yahoo Stocks in a package called yfinance. Both of these libraries will be used to plot and compare finance and trend data over time using Python scripts. The methods outlined in this tutorial could be applied to areas in finance, data analytics, and data visualization in general.
