I was just wondering, I've been trying to find the answer online, and
some other people have posted about it, but I cannot seem to find a
definitive answer anywhere. Does Google adjust its historical prices
for BOTH stock splits and dividends?

Thanks,

John

Hello John,

We do adjust prices for splits but not for dividends.

Hopefully the historical data will also reflect dividends in the future as does Yahoo Finance.
Calculating any technical indicators based on unadjusted data will result in unusable values.

Thanks.

I have found the adjustment for splits does not work on many stocks.  Google curently has an outstanding problem with their finance data that has been affecting some stocks for quite a while now.
