    Try these Excel steps for Stocks data types:

    1. Refresh the stock cells directly:
      • Right-click a cell that contains the Stocks data type.
      • Select Data Type > Refresh.
    2. Refresh the whole workbook:
      • Go to Data > Refresh All.
      • Or press Ctrl+Alt+F5.
    3. If Excel shows a question mark instead of the Stocks icon:
      • Check the ticker or company name for spelling.
      • Press Enter again.
      • If needed, click the selector icon and search using a keyword or two, then choose the correct result and select Select.
    4. If the stock symbol is missing entirely:
      • Try the company’s full legal name instead of only the ticker.
      • In the selector pane, search by company name and exchange.
      • If it still does not appear, use Give feedback in the Data Selector or Help > Feedback in Excel.
    5. If none of that works:
      • There have been cases where the Stocks data type service had temporary server-side problems affecting multiple users.
      • For a home Excel setup, submit feedback from Excel with Help > Feedback or Help > Send Feedback > Report a Problem.

    Stock information is delayed and provided as-is, so it is not real-time trading data.

    I have seen quite a few such reports in the forum today. I believe this is something from Microsoft's end or LSEG Data & Analytics, which provides the data source for Excel. I’m not seeing a Microsoft service advisory specifically acknowledging this issue, but please make sure you submit feedback via Help > Feedback. Users' feedback data can help bring this to Microsoft's attention.
