Stock Quote is not working properly on Mac Numbers

Hello,

A couple of days ago my Numbers spreadsheet returned suddenly errors on many of my Stock Quotes cells.

In fact, almost in all cells where I have referenced European securities, I've got the following error "some data is unavailable". This error is apparently seen when looking for stocks registered on the European stock markets, such as Euronext Paris, Amsterdam, Xetra, Copenhagen Exchange..., but not on US stock markets.

First, I thought I mistakenly did something with my spreadsheet. So, I went through Time Machine to get a backup version of my file. Then, I've created another spreadsheet. I also uninstalled / reinstalled Numbers and deleted all the caches.

After this the problem persisted. Subsequently, I thought that this might be a linking type of problem. Since Numbers fetches information from Yahoo! Finance, there must be something wrong at that level.

I contacted Apple to share this information, however the support replied that there are no known issues from their part. Then, I contacted the Yahoo! Finance team to share this finding with them, but to no reply.

I wonder if this is solely a problem on my Numbers or if this has also been noticed by someone else ? If it is the case, do you reckon any solution or could you manifest yourself so if this problem is real we might eventually attract more attention ?

You can try and search for some European stocks using the Insert -> Stock Quote option in Numbers to confirm. Or else maybe try some of these : STOCK("FPE3.DE";0) or STOCK("PHIA.AS";0), or STOCK("AIR.PA";0), remember 0 is for the price attribute...

Eventually, it is good to see if the error results only in some countries and not all of them - For instance, people using numbers in Europe vs. in the US etc.

I've put a screen capture test spreadsheet to show the error I'm getting.

Thanks for advance for your help !

Best,

T
