Hello everyone, I have been working on a Google sheet that helps me stay on top of some stocks. I really like the googlefinance function as it updates various fields with almost no effort at all. One attribute that I want in my spreadsheet is yield. I have found that Google only provides this information for mutual funds.

However, I am new to this domain and will be happy to share my experience with you. I bought this domain name because it was inexpensive and I wanted to learn a bit about the process of setting everything up. I have managed to get the site configured and it seems pretty responsive for visitors. I have been able to setup email that is associated with my domain that appears to work very well. I have joined a few services that will provide insight into you my visitors. Since purchasing the domain, it has not been available all the time as I have been trying different configuration which has not always worked perfectly.
