Scraping from yahoo finance with beautifulsoup resulting in status code : 404-CodePudding

I am trying to scrape some data from yahoo finance using beautifulsoup, but I've run into a problem. I am trying to run the following code,

import xlwings as xw
import requests
import bs4 as bs

r = requests.get('https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/DKK=X?p=DKK=X&.tsrc=fin-srch')
soup = bs.BeautifulSoup(r.content,'lxml',from_encoding='utf-8')

However, when inspecting my output from "soup", I get the following status code in the section,

<body>
<!-- status code : 404 -->
<!-- Not Found on Server -->

I've run the exact same piece of code on another trading pair on yahoo finance with no problem whatsoever. Could anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!
