Excel AI is part of a new set of features and improvements made by Microsoft to Excel. More specifically, the analyze data tool which allows you to select data from your spreadsheet and generate insights about the data automatically using AI.
Excel AI helps you predict the future behavior of stocks by analyzing historical data and looking for patterns in it. This includes financial data, price data, etc. After it analyzes the data, the tool automatically generates graphs, tables, and insights that you can add to your spreadsheet. Better yet, you can ask questions such as "what was the highest sales growth period?" and it provides you with the answers you are looking for. This tool allows you to conduct your stock analysis faster and make better investment decisions.
How to use Excel AI for stock analysis?
1. Start by entering the data into your Excel spreadsheet. This includes financial data, stock prices over time, and any other relevant market information you have. There are many ways in which you can do this, including copy-pasting the data from a source and using an API. However, we recommend using Wisesheets for its ability to get stock data for thousands of companies globally at scale right into Excel.
2. Next, select the Analyze Data tool from the Excel AI tools menu. This will open a window that displays all the available insights, tables, and charts generated based on your data.
3. Now, you can start to explore the insights that Excel AI has generated for you. By scrolling down, you will see more insights and graphs available, and at the top, ask any questions you'd like about the data. You can then use these insights to understand how the stock market and or stock is behaving and make buy and sell decisions.
4. Finally, you can modify the tables and charts generated by the AI and customize them to your own needs.
Example of using Excel AI for stock investing
Let's say you are analyzing Apple Inc. as a potential investment opportunity. Using Wisesheets, you can get the company's financial statements and key metrics like this:
With the available data, you can select the income statement as an example. Select a couple years from the data and click on evaluate data.
As you can see, Excel AI generates some pretty interesting insights, such as:
- The revenue increase over time along with the trend
- The ratio of R&D expenses and depreciation
- The correlation between interest expense and Research and development expenses
You can also type in the search something like "insights for revenue" and get interesting answers like the correlation between revenue and selling and admin expenses.
Pros and cons of using Excel AI for stock investing
Pros:
- Easily analyze and visualize stock data
- Access a wide range of insights quickly and accurately
- Make more informed decisions when investing in stocks
Cons:

Conclusion

Hello! I'm a finance enthusiast who fell in love with the world of finance at 15, devouring Warren Buffet's books and streaming Berkshire Hathaway meetings like a true fan.
I started my career in the industry at one of Canada's largest REITs, where I honed my skills analyzing and facilitating over a billion dollars in commercial real estate deals.
My passion led me to the stock market, but I quickly found myself spending more time gathering data than analyzing companies.
That's when my team and I created Wisesheets, a tool designed to automate the stock data gathering process, with the ultimate goal of helping anyone quickly find good investment opportunities.
Today, I juggle improving Wisesheets and tending to my stock portfolio, which I like to think of as a garden of assets and dividends. My journey from a finance-loving teenager to a tech entrepreneur has been a thrilling ride, full of surprises and lessons.
I'm excited for what's next and look forward to sharing my passion for finance and investing with others!
