Weekly Topics/Tasks: Data Collection
On Yahoo Finance, find July 2021 - June 2022 stock data (not
2018 as the video discusses) and filter monthly for your
assigned company.
Download data from Yahoo Finance and open an Excel spreadsheet.
For certain companies, Yahoo Finance will not display the data
properly (some months missing data, some months with multiple
data points, etc). Please proceed to follow the instructions exactly as
listed in the videos. Even if the Yahoo website appears to display
incorrect data, once downloaded, the Excel sheet will have the
correct monthly data.
