@dcelisgarza
Hi, Thanks for reporting!
I just downloaded 1.11.0 myself and tested your MWE. It works fine on my machine...

Do you by any chance require a proxy to access the internet? (This error would show up in cases where you cannot reach Yahoo finance/ the internet because you require a proxy to access the internet).

If it is indeed that you need to define a proxy you can set it like this - you will need to fill in the proxy link, password, and username:

create_proxy_settings("http://proxy.xyz.com:8080",user="USERNAME",password="PASSWORD")

Interesting, I tried it from home so there's no need for a proxy. I have the same issue with MarketData.jl, but not python's yfinance. I'll delete my .julia folder just in case, I was experimenting and there may be something that changed some artifact.

So it's on my end, I tested on my laptop and it worked. I went back to the desktop and it didn't, even after a clean reinstall. I had to restart my router, pc and do a clean install. I'll close this issue. Sorry about this, maybe my IP was banned for some reason lol.
