All,
I've been running some simulations that require downloading daily adjusted
close data for each stock. I also download the same period for the SPY.
It's worked well for many months. Recently, though, MANY stocks have a
single day missing out of 11 years of daily data. The SPY downloads
perfectly and is complete.

I'd suspect my code, except that that the same called routine downloads both
the SPY and the others. It has persisted across a couple of days now, and
not all stocks. Here's a list of a few of them: WR, UIL, WBK, WDR, WEC, WM.
12/21/2001 - 12/21/2012. 2/1/2002 is a date that has a SPY value, but not
for any of these stocks. It is a Friday according to DR Google.

If anyone has an idea, I'd certainly appreciate it. I can patch the
download to insert a dummy value, but SHEESH, that seems improper to me J
Thanks!
Thanks,
Pete A

Years ago, this used to be a common issue -- there would be a lot of "date
missing" in Yahoo historical data, because they didn't use to post an entry
for a day with zero volume (is that a "trading" day?).

It could be they just had an issue with the update process on that
particular day, and some stocks didn't get updated. Note that many of the
ones you listed are late in the alphabet.

My suggestion would be to mention it to Yahoo.

Hi,

Is there a way to let =RCHGetElementNumber("IBM";, 941) reference the stock symbol to another cell so that we don't need to edit the symbols one by one for different data that we wanted to extract?

Example

Cell A1 = IBM
Cell B1 = =RCHGetElementNumber("IBM";, 941)

I tried the above, and excel always shows error.
I'm using Excel 2007 with Win XP.

Just like in any EXCEL function:

=RCHGetElementNumber(A1, 941)

In your description, I'm not sure what is showing error?

Mysterious, but as I began experimenting, it fixed itself! Probably a YAHOO
problem that they found.
Thanks,
