Pip is highly unreliable. Try download the source and compiling it. That almost always works.

As suggested above. Try it with Sudo first. It looks like that is blocking your pip install attempt.

I disagree with the answers saying to use sudo pip install to get around permissions errors. This is not always a safe approach. On OSX, you should be able to get around your current error using the --user flag.

So:

pip install --user pandas

However, as @Kasramvd has noted in the comments, one of the safest options is to use a virtual environment.

Not saying that using sudo is bad, just that you should understand what you are doing when you use it.

From What are the risks of running 'sudo pip'?:

When you run pip with sudo, you run setup.py with sudo. In other words, you run arbitrary Python code from the Internet as root. If someone puts up a malicious project on PyPI and you install it, you give an attacker root access to your machine. Prior to some recent fixes to pip and PyPI, an attacker could also run a man in the middle attack to inject their code when you download a trustworthy project.

(That answer may be somewhat dated, but the first part holds true)
