Question.. Anyone else here a numbers/spreadsheet whore like me? LOL. I have a spreadsheet (Google docs, actually) that i keep a tab on EACH of my stocks. the Original Purchase, later purchases, all the dividend payouts, etc. Well, ive been keeping track of each of them since i started this whole thing. I keep track every couple months of my "total return", "yield on cost" etc (since it was a manual and bit more tedious project). BUT, I ran into a feature today where i can pull in Google Finance Stock bits from "live" from the web. So using this, I've made a "Summary View" tab where it auto calculates my current stock +/- for the day, my TOTAL RETURN, by Yield On Cost and also the Current Yield of the stock, etc. Totally cool!
So now I can see realtime (well, 20 minute delay from the market) my vitals and my total return (which, i may add, is GREAT!).
Its the "=GoogleFinance" function.
