I've been running some heavy duty tests on the latest beta and have found it to be quite solid. I will say that I have manually previewed all of the data I am fetching and that I'm limiting Y downloads to those symbols which have just the 06/29/16 null data and am discerning no change from the old Y in my historical modeling results.

Symbols like SHY, which launched on 07/22.2002, are not only severely truncated but filled with null data. There is no way to deal with this short of using another data source after reporting it to Y and hoping they will get around to fix it. (My report on SHY is ranked 1447th so I've not got a lot of hope for a quick fix.) My download controller now uses a symbol table to determine whether to download history from Y or QuoteMedia @ Quandl and that whole process is working decently. As I've remarked earlier, I've found the QuoteMedia dividend records to be of very poor quality so the QM close adjusted data is less than professional quality. I strongly prefer the Y data where I can use it.

I did run into one glitch due to the Y changes. Y has added intraday quotes to the datastream for the current trading day for stocks; however there is no intraday history for Open End Funds. This affects the number of active array elements when date syncing quote data across multiple symbols. My original design relied upon having completed trading days for all symbols and then fetching a separate real-time quote if I wanted current day data. I ended up removing the current trading day from the historical dataset so all of my datasets have the same number of trading days.

Thank you for all your hard work.

Why is 06/29/16 so significant as a determiner of valid historical quotes ?

This is great news Randy. In light of dealing with JSON, I was just curious as to the performance of the new Yahoo getHistory function relative to the old one ?

Yeah, I can see that the monthly data is not corrected for dividends. Ahhh, shucks!

Anyway we can get the adjusted data? Maybe in the near future?

It just appeared to be a common date that a lot of ETFs and indexes had
"null" values.

It is taking noticeably longer. Maybe a second or so longer. Also more
spotty. I've had many requests take 2 or 3 seconds to complete, although
the average seems about a second.

Uncertain at this time.

I examined a number of ETFs I use and found that 06/29/16 was frequently filled with null values.

I never moved my location which is weird.

How do I run the smfFix macro (and I'll see if this fixes my problem.


Thanks.

Easiest way is to do a right mouse click, select the "SMF" menu, then the
"FIx Links" option.

Posted this on the google group, but I read that the Yahoo forum is more active. Please feel free to delete it if it is not appropriate.


I have been using this fantastic add-in for almost 3 years, and really appreciate the time and effort you put into this project. Thank you for making my life easier.

Now, that said, the one index that I cannot get on here is the Dow Jones US Real Estate index, and from the research I have done on this discussion pages, I learned that Dow Jones does not allow Yahoo to give historical data.


So I went and found the official website allows you to download all the historical data in an excel file (the website: https://us.spindices.com/ indices/equity/dow-jones-us- real-estate-index https://us.spindices.com/indices/equity/dow-jones-us-real-estate-index; the link for the excel file: https://us.spindices.com/ idsexport/file.xls? hostIdentifier=48190c8c-42c4- 46af-8d1a-0cd5db894797& selectedModule= PerformanceGraphView& selectedSubModule=Graph& yearFlag=oneYearFlag&indexId= 91882099 https://us.spindices.com/idsexport/file.xls?hostIdentifier=48190c8c-42c4-46af-8d1a-0cd5db894797&selectedModule=PerformanceGraphView&selectedSubModule=Graph&yearFlag=oneYearFlag&indexId=91882099). Is there a way to pull data off of this excel file and for it to update automatically, like the getPrice function does for most other indices?


I am not entirely sure how smf pull the data off the yahoo, so I might be asking the impossible. I really would appreciate any assistance you could give.


Thank you,
Matt

Normally, I would suggest just doing a direct reference to the workbook
(not needing the add-in). For example, something like:

='
http://us.spindices.com/documents/additional-material/[sp-500-eps-est.xlsx]ESTIMATES&PEs'!$A$2

Unfortunately, that doesn't work with the URL of the workbook you want to
use. So I think you'd have to write your own VBA routine to open the
workbook. Or, if you save the workbook locally, you could then refer to it
directly, as in:

='C:\Users\Randy\AppData\Local\Temp\[PerformanceGraphExport.xls]Performance
Graph'!$A$7:$C$23

Does the updated addin for smfPricesByDates still return adjusted prices
for dividends and distributions? Thanks, Eric

Yes. With the split adjustments made by Yahoo and the dividend/distribution
adjustments made by smfGetYahooHistory(), based on the Yahoo dividend
payments they have.
