Are google sheets prices completely worthless?

Post by dualstow » Fri Aug 16, 2019 3:12 pm

Answer: yes, they are. Worthless.
I’m used to gold prices being all over the place, varying wildly from yahoo to apmex to kitco to google.
However, while yahoo’s stock and etf prices closely match Vanguard’s, the live prices pulled in my google spreadsheets are always wrong.

Worthless I say! Harummph.

I just type the spot price into my spreadsheet.
You there, Ephialtes. May you live forever.

I should have put it in the title, but i mean it’s the *stock* prices that are no good.

Reality is. . . what is boldly asserted and plausibly maintained. Did you opt out of Common Core or something?
