Import single column csv file of stock market tickers into python as a list

Question

I have a csv file of stock market tickers name which I want to import into python as a list in order to use it in web.DataReader(ticker_list, 'yahoo', start, end). Since my csv file is only a single column, is there a efficient way to do this? My list is as simple as below image

Answer 1

Would this work for you?

import csv

with open('1.csv') as f:
    reader = csv.reader(f)
    data = list(reader)

Afterwards you could access the lists contents by using something like print(data[0]) for an output of ['^GSPC'].

I hope this helps
