Trouble printing assignment

I have gotten a code and after working out the indentation problem in it, it runs without errors, however now I cannot print the code into a list. 

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as soup
from urllib.request import urlopen as uReq
import requests

symbol = 'AAPL'
url = "https://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?action=getcompany&CIK=" + symbol + "&type=&dateb=&owner=exclude&start=0&count=100&output=atom"
uClient = uReq(url)
page_html = uClient.read()
uClient.close()
html = soup(page_html, 'html.parser')
entries = html.findAll("entry")

shouldContinue = True
link = ""
for entry in entries:

    if shouldContinue and (
            entry.find("category")["term"].lower() == "10-k" or entry.find("category")["term"].lower() == "10-q" or
            entry.find("category")["term"].lower() == "20-f"):


        firstUrl = entry.find("link")["href"]

        uClientFirstUrl = uReq(firstUrl)
        page_html_firstUrl = uClientFirstUrl.read()
        uClientFirstUrl.close()
        htmlFirstUrl = soup(page_html_firstUrl, 'html.parser')

        tds = htmlFirstUrl.findAll("table")[1].findAll("td")
        foundtd = False
        for td in tds:
            if foundtd == True:
                link = "https://www.sec.gov" + td.find("a")["href"]
                foundtd = False
            if "xbrl instance" in td.text.lower():
                foundtd = True

            shouldContinue = False


def getCash(url, symbol):
    uClient = uReq(url)
    page_html = uClient.read()
    uClient.close()
    xml = soup(page_html, 'xml')

    cash = xml.findAll("us-gaap:CashAndCashEquivalentsAtCarryingValue")
    if len(cash) == 0:
        cash = xml.findAll("ifrs-full:Cash")
        if len(cash) == 0:
            cash = xml.findAll("us-gaap:CashCashEquivalentsRestrictedCashAndRestrictedCashEquivalents")
            if len(cash) == 0:
                cash = xml.findAll("us-gaap:Cash")

    return cash

    print(getCash)

getCash(url, symbol)

I have tried printing the assignment, as well as calling the method without any success. A sense of direction would be appreciated. Thank you.

As mentioned in my comment above:

What effect do you expect from print(getCash)? If you want it to print the return from the getCash() function, delete it (it's not doing anything), and wrap your getCash(url, symbol) call in a print() function.

Basically, do this:

print(getCash(url, symbol))
