Yahoo Finance Model Context Protocol (MCP) for LLaMA 3.2 3B

This repository contains a Model Context Protocol (MCP) implementation that integrates Yahoo Finance API with LLaMA 3.2 3B. The MCP allows the model to retrieve real-time financial data, stock information, and market news while preserving all of LLaMA's regular capabilities.

Features

  • Get real-time stock prices directly within LLaMA 3.2 3B
  • Retrieve detailed company information (sector, industry, market cap, etc.)
  • Fetch historical stock data with customizable time periods and intervals
  • Get latest market news headlines
  • Seamlessly enhances LLaMA's capabilities without interfering with non-financial queries

Requirements

  • Python 3.8+
  • Ollama - For running LLaMA 3.2 3B locally
  • LLaMA 3.2 3B model pulled in Ollama
  • Python packages:
    • ollama
    • yfinance
    • requests
    • pandas

Installation

  1. Install Ollama from https://ollama.ai/
  2. Pull the LLaMA 3.2 3B model using Ollama:
    ollama pull llama3.2:3b
  3. Clone this repository:
    git clone <repository-url> cd mcp_yahoo_finance
  4. Install the required Python dependencies:
    pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

Running the MCP with Ollama Integration

To use the Yahoo Finance MCP with LLaMA 3.2 3B through Ollama:

python mcp_ollama_integration.py

This will start an interactive session where you can:

  • Ask financial questions that will be enriched with Yahoo Finance data
  • Ask any other questions which will be handled normally by LLaMA 3.2 3B

Example Queries

Financial Queries (Enhanced with Yahoo Finance data)

  • "What is the current price of Apple stock?"
  • "Tell me about Tesla as a company"
  • "How has Microsoft's stock performed over the past month?"
  • "What are the latest market news headlines?"
  • "What is the 52-week high for Amazon?"
  • "What sector does Nvidia operate in?"
  • "How has the S&P 500 performed this year?"

Non-Financial Queries (Handled normally by LLaMA)

  • "What is the capital of France?"
  • "Explain quantum computing"
  • "Write a poem about autumn"
  • "What is the Pythagorean theorem?"

Using a Different LLaMA Model

You can specify a different model with the --model parameter:

python mcp_ollama_integration.py --model llama3.2:8b

How It Works

  1. The MCP analyzes each user query to determine if it's finance-related
  2. For financial queries, it:
    • Identifies the relevant financial function to call (price, info, history, news)
    • Calls the Yahoo Finance API through the MCP
    • Formats the real-time data and feeds it to LLaMA 3.2 3B as context
    • LLaMA 3.2 3B provides a natural response incorporating the financial data
  3. For non-financial queries, it passes them directly to LLaMA 3.2 3B without modification

This approach seamlessly enhances LLaMA's capabilities with real-time financial data while preserving all of its original functionality.

Advanced Usage

Direct API Functions

If you want to use the Yahoo Finance MCP functions directly in your code:

from yahoo_finance_mcp import YahooFinanceMCP # Initialize the MCP mcp = YahooFinanceMCP() # Get stock price price_data = mcp.execute_function("get_stock_price", {"symbol": "AAPL"}) # Get company information company_data = mcp.execute_function("get_stock_info", {"symbol": "TSLA"}) # Get historical data history_data = mcp.execute_function("get_stock_history", {"symbol": "MSFT", "period": "1mo"}) # Get market news news_data = mcp.execute_function("get_market_news", {"limit": 5})

Troubleshooting

  • "Error connecting to Ollama": Make sure Ollama is installed and running
  • Company not found: Try using the official ticker symbol instead of the company name
  • LLaMA 3.2 3B model not found: Run ollama pull llama3.2:3b to download the model
