What would make my work easier would be if your Excel Stockhistory() people would do their work. PPLT and PALL stocks were split 10:1 and 5:1 on May 18th, yet over 10 days later StockHistory() has yet to correct historical data to reflect those splits. Please! What is wrong with your organization?
The descent of Excel's Stockhistory() function almost seems to be a prelude to its cancellation altogether, a tough pill to swallow after years of work from its users. Another data blackout this morning, and stock splits several weeks old still not adjusted in history. Sad really, and the silence is astonishing.
Here I am making a bigger effort to fix a Microsoft product than any employee at the creators of Excel. It's a shame that an indispensable product feature is lying in the gutter of neglect. Imagine my non-surprise to find yet another missed stock split in Excel's stockhistory(), this time in BKNG, for any Microsoft engineer that may see this, a ticker is a short string that associates a company with the markets. The only way this could happen was a decision to cache the data on-site yet neglect hiring anyone to execute the necessary maintenance of the data. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Imagine your excitement when one of your stocks is splitting and expected to gain from it. You've been tracking it formonths in your Excel spreadsheet using stockhistory() to gain your advantage in the markets. Now the big day comes and the stock splits, now you're really ging to exploit your analysis engine you have spent years perfecting. Then you see your model break, why? Well it's because MS does no dogfooding on stockhistory, not a single employee or manager knows about their issues with it, except you are the one suffering. Once again, as regular as clockwork, MS has missed another split, this time for ticker POWL. Satya, please put someone in charge, a capable leader that can transform the dormitory you presently have into a solution provider.
FUBO split its stock 1:12 on Tuesday. It's Friday and you still haven't updated Excel's Stockhistory() to reflect that. Not that I'm surprised because I have contended that there's nobody at MS that actually uses or is accountable for the product. Splits get missed all the time. And please remember that ALL data needs to be adjusted, so please don't forget to adjust volumes as well. I have noticed some data speed improvement, and that's good, I hope it's a sign that there is somebody trying to do their best. Sorry to have to post this here but reporting through the platform has no results.
