The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The source that Elan mentioned for retrieving pricing (Jason Strimpel finance.jasonstrimpel.com - Bulk stock download) has not been working for the last few weeks so I am trying Wisesheets that was also mentioned. For Excel, Wisesheets does not work on Excel 2019 for retrieving pricing, it does work for getting other data. They advised that you need Microsoft 365. On Goooglesheets it works fine. The only issue I have noticed is that although there is a formula for adjusted prices, the most recent dividend is not included (at least in the three stocks I checked, XOM, APPL and GOOG). I have written to them and received a reply that they would check with their vendor.
