The integration of real-time stock information in portfolio management has evolved significantly over the years. Initially, investors had to rely on periodic reports or news updates for stock information. With the advent of the internet, information became more readily available, but it was still a manual process to update portfolio data. The introduction of APIs and data feeds allowed for real-time updates, but these were often expensive and required technical expertise. The game-changer came with the integration of real-time stock data in spreadsheet software like Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets. This made real-time data accessible to the average investor, allowing them to make informed decisions based on current market dynamics.
