How to catch exceptions in library?
If you check the file here - https://github.com/ranaroussi/yfinance/blob/main/yfinance/base.py - you can see this is communicated via the "raise Exception('%s: %s' % (self.ticker, err_msg))" line. I'm trying to use the following to catch the exception but no luck.

A little dive into the seismic GME graph that was floating around the sub lately
This is cool. I’ve been playing around with plotting data as well, though I’ve used other tools, specifically yfinance to download data and gnuplot for the graphs. I think you found the easier to use graph library, but I recommend you check out yfinance for getting the data in the same script.

If you bought every stock removed from the ASX200 in 2020, you would've outperformed the ASX200 by 55% over the last two years. You would also have outperformed someone who bought every stock added to the ASX200 by 85%.
From the S&P Global rebalancing announcements, I pulled every company that was added and removed from the ASX200 in 2020 and made two separate portfolios of even weighting of all stocks. I then backtested, including dividends, the performance of both across the past two years with yfinance.

Yahoo Finance Python BUG
Well, it's not a "Yahoo! Finance" issue. yfinance is a 3rd party project and isn't associated with Yahoo!. And it's apparently a known issue that started today: https://github.com/ranaroussi/yfinance/issues/1246
