This release focuses on expanding the functionality of `quantsumore` by introducing two core components: **Fundamental Analysis** and **Technical Analysis**, along with key bug fixes and improvements in file handling.
New Features
1. **Fundamental Analysis (`fAnalysis`)**
The `fAnalysis` class is designed for users who need detailed insights into a company’s financial performance. It provides access to financial statements, ratio analysis, and dividend data. Key functionalities include:
- **Financial Statements**: Retrieve income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements.
- **Ratio Analysis**: Calculate essential ratios such as liquidity ratios (current ratio, quick ratio), solvency ratios (debt-to-equity ratio, debt-to-capital ratio), and profitability ratios (net profit margin, EBIT margin).
- **Common Size Financial Statements**: Convert financial statements into common-size formats for easier comparison across periods or companies.
- **Dividend Analysis**: Retrieve and analyze dividend yields, ex-dividend dates, and annual dividend reports.
2. **Technical Analysis (`tAnalysis`)**
The `tAnalysis` class adds a suite of widely-used technical indicators for analyzing market trends and price movements, essential for traders and analysts. Key indicators include:
- **Directional Movement Index (DMI) and Average Directional Index (ADX)**: Measures trend strength and direction.
- **Relative Strength Index (RSI)**: Identifies overbought and oversold market conditions.
- **MACD**: A momentum indicator that follows trends.
- **Bollinger Bands**: Helps analyze market volatility.
- **Stochastic Oscillator**: Measures the sensitivity of price movements.
- **On-Balance Volume (OBV)** and **Accumulation/Distribution Line**: Track volume trends relative to price.
Improvements
