I am building a stock model - where I use =importhtml() to give me financial data pulled from a website on certain stocks. It is returning it correctly, but there are asterisks surrounding all the data as seen below:
- Ticker Market Cap Income
- *AAPL * *1151.68B * *57.53B *
- *ABT * *144.46B * *3.60B *
- *AMD * *58.17B * *328.00M * (no actual spaces are between asterisks - just avoiding HTML )
So I am taking that data and using =if(B3="-",0,mid(B3,2,LEN(B3)-2)) to get rid of the asterisks.
- Ticker Market Cap Income
- AAPL 1151.68B 57.53B
- ABT 144.46B 3.60B
- AMD 58.17B 328.00M
Thats working - but I want it to be able to recognize that there is either a "B" or an "M" at the end, take that char off and then multiply it by either a billion or a million, depending.
I can take my second asterisk-free table and then make a THIRD table using:
=if(right(B95,1) = "B",LEFT(B95,Len(B95)-1)*1000000000,if(right(B95,1) = "M", LEFT(B95,Len(B95)-1)*1000000))
That does the trick. But I would like figure out how to merge these two into one command so I don't have to make the third table.
Thanks
