The Stock extension data is throwing an error

#1

Looks that there was an underlying problem in the R package called ‘quant mod’ that is used for the Stock extension data.

The developer of the package has already fixed the issue and the fix is available at CRAN (R’s official repository).

Given that this ‘quantmod’ package is one of the system package, which gets installed/upgraded as Exploratory’s system package, you can’t upgrade to the latest from the UI. Instead, you can upgrade from the Script editor by following the steps below.

  1. Open the R Script Editor, and type the below.
install.packages('quantmod', repos = "https://cran.rstudio.com")

  2. Reopen the Project

Then it should start working.
