How to Get Stock Prices in Excel
Microsoft 365 Excel has a built-in **Stocks** linked data type plus the `STOCKHISTORY` function. Together they let you pull current quotes and historical prices straight into a worksheet.
Use the Stocks data type for live data
- Type tickers in a column (e.g. AAPL, MSFT, GOOG).
- Select the cells, then Data → Stocks.
- Excel converts each into a linked record. Click the insert data icon next to a converted cell and pick fields like Price, Change, 52 week high.
- Refresh with Data → Refresh All to pull current quotes.
Pull historical prices with STOCKHISTORY
In any cell, use:
=STOCKHISTORY("AAPL", "1/1/2025", "12/31/2025", 0, 1, 0, 1)
Arguments: ticker, start, end, interval (0=daily, 1=weekly, 2=monthly), headers, and which fields to include (Date, Close, Open, High, Low, Volume).
Build a small dashboard
Combine the two: ticker cells with the Stocks data type for live pricing on top, and STOCKHISTORY filling a chart below.
Refresh and licensing
The Stocks data type and STOCKHISTORY need a Microsoft 365 subscription with internet access. Quotes are delayed by ~15 minutes for most exchanges.

Skip the menu maze—let Vocordia guide you through it with voice and on-screen cursor guidance so you can wire up tickers and history without misplacing arguments.
