Was trying to download a string of tickers when i ran into this problem. pip install -U yfinance pandas fixed it.
Solution 2:[2]
After upgrading to yfinance version 0.1.70, the problem has gone. My version of pandas is 1.4.1.
use pip install -U yfinance pandas to update.
For reference, my version of yfinance was 0.1.63 and pandas was 1.4.1.

From what I saw on the Github for YFinance, this is already an issue with the new version of Pandas (source: here). Try installing an older version of pandas with pip install pandas==1.3.5 and see if that helps.
