Stock News

Overview

This Python project fetches stock data and news articles related to a specified company and sends SMS alerts via Twilio when there is a significant change in the stock price. It utilizes APIs from Alpha Vantage for stock data, News API for news articles, and Twilio for SMS messaging.

Features

• Fetches daily stock data from Alpha Vantage API.
• Retrieves news articles related to the specified company from News API.
• Sends SMS alerts via Twilio when the stock price change exceeds a specified threshold.
• Utilizes environment variables for API keys and endpoints for enhanced security.

How the Project Works

1. Retrieves daily stock data for a specified company using the Alpha Vantage API.
2. Calculates the percentage difference in the stock price between two consecutive trading days.
3. If the percentage difference exceeds a specified threshold (e.g., 5%), fetches news articles related to the company using the News API.
4. Sends SMS alerts via Twilio with the headline and brief description of the top news articles.
