    Converting daily data into weekly and making the weekly number a cumulative return

    So i have a workbook with thousands of rows of data that was collected on a daily basis. I need to convert this data to a weekly cumulative return for every friday. (example: FriCumulative=(1+sat)*(1+sun)*(1+mon)*(1+tue)*(1+wed)*(1+thurs)*(1+fri) - 1)

    Please help, excel file is too large to upload

    Your explanation isn't clear. Take 5 minutes and mock-up a VERY small sheet with a couple of columns and a couple of week's worth of random numbers.

    okay so there are 60 columns with daily data and I need each column converted to a weekly cumulative return.

    So, you want weekly totals, column by column? What day does the week start/end on - your sample starts on a Sunday.

    Re: Converting daily data into weekly and making the weekly number a cumulative return

    The sample actually starts on a Saturday, you can check that by using =TEXT(A2,"ddd")

    I added an updated Sheet2 which has an example of what I want, with the cumulative return function I want. I was just wondering if there was a faster way of going about this since there is so much data in the original workbook and if there was a quick function in excel to do that cumulative return instead of this long version.

    thanks

    okay thank you, also if possible, I would like a way to have all of the weekly data in nice columns without 6 cells in between each one. I could go in and delete the cells in between manually but with the amount of data I have it could take days

    thanks

    thank you very much, but you summed the values instead of getting the cumulative return. any way you could change it to cumulative? (cumulative as in compounding percentages)

    Hi there. Apologies for the delay... but I ran into a bit of a problem that took a while to resolve!! Please check this over and let me know what you think. There are some cells way to the right that are full of "stuff" that can be deleted, but which I wanted to keep, just in case I need to "unpick" some of this.
