Investing.com News Scraper

A lightweight Apify actor that extracts the latest financial news from Investing.com without requiring an official API key. It returns structured JSON data including article content, related tickers, and user comments.

Key Features

• Multi-category scraping: Fetch news from categories like Breaking News, Stock Market, Cryptocurrency, Commodities, and Economy.
• Paginated results: Scrape multiple pages of articles by specifying a page number.
• Structured data output: Returns JSON with full article metadata (headline, body, link, image).
• Financial context extraction: Captures related stock tickers with price changes and user comment threads.

How to Use

Input

The actor accepts an input object with the following fields:
* type: The news category to scrape (e.g., "BREAKING", "CRYPTOCURRENCY", "ECONOMY").
