  • Microsoft is adding Stock and Geography data types to Excel. While I covered geography data types on Monday, today is a discussion of stock data types. This feature is only available to people with an Office 365 subscription - it will never be included if you purchase Excel 2019, or Excel 2016 or Excel 2013.
  • Function returns historical price data about the financial instrument corresponding to this value. Enter a ticker symbol in double quotes (e.g., 'MSFT') or a reference to a cell containing the Stocks data type. This will pull data from the default exchange for the instrument.

Last year, Microsoft introduced new Stocks data type in Excel. It allowed users to easily pull refreshable quotes for stocks, bonds, funds, and currency pairs inside Excel document. Apart from the current stock information, users might also need the history of a financial instrument. To solve this issue, Microsoft Excel is introducing a new function called STOCKHISTORY.

STOCKHISTORY function signature:

STOCKHISTORY(stock, start_date, [end_date],[interval],[headers], [property0], [property1] [property2], [property3], [property4], [property5])

  • stock: The identifier for the financial instrument targeted. This can be a ticker symbol or a Stocks data type.
  • start_date: The earliest date for which you want information.
  • end_date (optional): The latest date for which you want information.
  • interval (optional): Daily (0), Weekly (1), or Monthly (2) interval options for data
  • headers (optional): Specifies if additional header rows are returned with the array.
  • property0 – property5 (optional): Specifies which information should be included in the result, Date (0), Close (1), Open (2), High (3), Low (4), Volume (5).

Microsoft is using the historical data from Refinitiv for this function. STOCKHISTORY feature is now available to half of Microsoft 365 Subscribers in the Beta level of the Office Insider program.

Enhancement (7/10/2010). History for non-US sybmols supported.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How many tickers can I request data for?

Excel For Mac 2016 Vba To Get Bulk Stock History File

A. The amount of data you can request (tickers for a given date range) is determined by my host, IONOS, at this point. It seems to top out around 50MB of data.


Q. Why does my weekly data have Mondays as the date index?

A. This is the method that Yahoo employs. As the week progresses, the open will stay the same (Monday morning opening) but the high, low, close, and average volume will fluctuate depending on what happens throughout the week. This way you don't have to wait until Friday for the current week's print. (This logic applies to the monthly data as well.)


Q. What does the uploaded CSV need to look like?

A. The uploaded file must be a CSV. Tickers you wish to get data for must all be included in the first column of the spreadsheet, one ticker symbol per row. Download an example.


Q. What ticker symbols can be included?

A. Any ticker that has historical data on Yahoo! Finance.


Q. What happens if I request data for a symbol on a day where there is no data?

A. The application takes into account days of no data and properly aligns the series. Any observation with no data point will have a user-selected value, either an NaN or 0printed. For example, US markets did not trade on July 5, 2010 however markets in Argentina did. Using the example tickers in the manual ticker entry box above, you will see an NaN for YHOO, GOOG, and MSFT for July 5, 2010 while there is a data point for ALUA.BA. For days where all input symbols have no data, the observation is excluded from the download.


Q. What does it mean to back or forward fill the data?

A. With time series data, using fill forward is extremely common so that the 'last known value' is available at every time point. Select fill forward to make this occur. Fill backward is less common in time series data (you don't know tomorrow's values today), but is included for completeness.


Q. What does 'Return series in ascending order' mean?

A. If this box is selected, observations will be returned in ascending order (start date first to end date). Terex ppm att 600 manual. For example, selecting daily observations between July 5, 2007 and December 31, 2009 in ascending order will return observations starting at July 5, 2007 and ending at December 31, 2009.


Q. What is included when the 'Include column headers' box is checked?

A. When this box is checked, the ticker symbols will be included at the top of the data series. If you include the date or generic index number, Date or Obs. will be the header for that column, respectively.
