I'm unsure how to get sectors in Research. Normally I'd use a Quantbook and call whatever fundamental I need to as such:
qb.GetFundamental(stock.Symbol, "FinancialStatements.BalanceSheet.TotalAssets.ThreeMonths", date, date)
However from the fundamentals documentation page, it looks like sector information is part of the finefundamental object. Anyone have an idea how to get sectors in research?
