An exchange traded fund (etf) holds a number of underlying stocks. This tool attempts to simplify viewing the portion of a portfolio that is made up by the underlying stocks of ETFs. The tool allows a user to enter the list of stocks and ETFs held in their portfolio and will then calculate and output the percentage of the portfolio that each underlying stock makes up.
I used this project to familiarize myself with web development and the flask framework. ETF holdings are scraped from either etfdailynews or etfdb depending on which is available. Stock price history and statistics are retrieved from iextrading.
