Very nice. I need something like this incorporated into my workbook since I mainly use ETFs over mutual funds. Not sure if you know, but Sheets has a function "GOOGLEFINANCE" where you can input a ticker symbol and retrieve a lot of useful info, including price.

EDIT: I commented too soon. You have useful info in some hidden columns. Thanks again for this! I'll be incorporating it into my spreadsheet.

Thanks for the info. Where does your code/Gooey/Fire live? If I wanted to take a Python script to use, where do I put it with this setup?

I found the EdX course too rushed (assuming you don't pay for the verification to get lifetime access). I like Bliztstein, so I instead used his Youtube playlist [0]. It has his full lectures. Also, his book is free to view [1].

Is this not applicable to Windows? The article mentions Unix, Linux, and Mac. Sorry for the n00b question; I'm just an amateur Python data analyst.
Re:To Lose Weight with Exercise, Aim for 300 Minutes a Week on Wednesday December 09, 2020 @11:25AM (#25360303)
I agree, it's a lot. Most people would benefit if they curb their calorie intake, instead of trying to lose weight primarily from exercise.
