Hello,
I've been working on an automated download using this function called from VBA.  There are several time periods missing throughout the day and I've tried it with QQQ,TSLA,SPY,NVDA, and META.  Please see QQQ attached

Hi Steve,

I've spent some time investigating this and I am seeing the same behaviour, there are some minute periods missing, sporadically, there is no obvious pattern.

For example QQQ, the 08:41 minute point is missing:

and if I look at the minute chart on the Yahoo website I can see that there is no data for 04:41 (the time difference is due to UTC vs local market time):

Screenshot 2025-06-25 115905.png

Unfortunately we have no control over the source data, it comes from Yahoo Finance. I can post on their forum and see if they can investigate.

Kind Regards,

Thanks for looking into this Andrew.  I'm hoping the Yahoo folks can shed some light on this.
