Google Finance: How big is a normal delay for historical stock data or is something broken?

Question

I tried to download historical data from Google with this code:

import pandas_datareader.data as wb
import datetime

web_df = wb.DataReader("ETR:DAI", 'google',
                       datetime.date(2017,9,1),
                       datetime.date(2017,9,7))
print(web_df)

and got this:

             Open   High    Low  Close   Volume
Date                                           
2017-09-01  61.38  62.16  61.22  61.80  3042884
2017-09-04  61.40  62.01  61.31  61.84  1802854
2017-09-05  62.01  62.92  61.77  62.42  3113816

My question: Is this a normal delay or is something broken?

Also I would want to know: Have you noticed that Google has removed the historical data pages at Google Finance? Is this a hint that the will remove or allready have removed the download option for historical stock data, too?

Answer 1

google finance using pandas has stopped working since last night, I am trying to figure out.I have also noticed that the links to the historical data on their website is removed.

Answer 2

It depends on which stocks and which market. Example with Indonesia market, it still able to get latest data. Of course, it may be soon to follow the fate of others market that stop updating on 5 September 2017. A very sad things

web_df = wb.DataReader("IDX:AALI", 'google',
                       datetime.date(2017,9,1),
                       datetime.date(2017,9,7))

             Open   High    Low  Close   Volume
