How to get X-year low price of a stock with Google Finance using Google Sheets

Question

I can currently get the 52-week low of a stock by using this call in Google Sheets.

=GOOGLEFINANCE("NYSE:UBER","low52")

How do I get the 3-year and 5-year low of a stock? For a 3-year low I tried something like this:

=GOOGLEFINANCE("NYSE:UBER","price",TODAY(),=EDATE(TODAY(),-12*3))

However this returns a list of the past 20 prices, not a single value representing the lowest value over the past X-years.

Answer 1

Get daily price data for your date range and find the mininum value

For 3-year low:

=MIN(INDEX(GOOGLEFINANCE("NYSE:UBER","price",DATE(YEAR(TODAY())-3,MONTH(TODAY()),DAY(TODAY())), TODAY()),0,2))

and for 5-year low:

=MIN(INDEX(GOOGLEFINANCE("NYSE:UBER","price",DATE(YEAR(TODAY())-5,MONTH(TODAY()),DAY(TODAY())), TODAY()),0,2))

Dynamically, add your number of years to a cell (for example A1) and use:

=MIN(INDEX(GOOGLEFINANCE("NYSE:UBER","price",DATE(YEAR(TODAY())-A1,MONTH(TODAY()),DAY(TODAY())), TODAY()),0,2))

Note for this pair the 3-year and 5-year lows are the same
