This is a simple educational scraper for collecting Earnings Announcement Transcripts from fool.com (only page 1).

This package was developed for the purpose of Web Scraping with Python Workshop at Florida Atlantic University - October 2022.

This scraper collects the earnings announcements of the first page only.
