Description of Issue

My zipline back testing script worked well 2 or 3 days ago.
But, last weekend, the script showed "JSONDecodeError".
You can see the detail error and source code in the attached text files.

Reproduction Steps

  1. Just re-run the script

...

What steps have you taken to resolve this already?

I called the "TradingAlgorithm()" in the ipython console without or with parameters. It showed same error always.
In [4]: algo=TradingAlgorithm() or
In [5]: TradingAlgorithm() or
In [6]: algo = TradingAlgorithm(sim_params=create_simulation_parameters(capital_base=1000000000,trading_calendar=xkrx),initialize=initialize,handle_data=handle_data,trading_calendar=xkrx)

Anything else?

I think that this issue maybe related to the following issue.
#2480

Although, I referenced the this issue, I am not using IEX as a data source. Attached "DataDownloader.txt" is the download script and using Yahoo.

Sincerely,
SeungYong

Sorry for deleting my earlier reply, because I found that I mistook my cached benchmark file with a newly created one.
If you do not need benchmark in your backtests, you can try this hack.

Some fix which is mentioned at the issue #2480 works for my script.
I used the IEXCLOUD API.
Thank you.

Still getting this issue with Python 3.6.8 and zipline 1.3.0, so I downgraded zipline to 1.2.0, but still getting the same error with 1.2.0.

FWIW the fixes suggested here worked for me: https://stackoverflow.com/a/58661288/3403924 (ignore step 3, though)
