Hi

You don't need a Pivot Table.
Enter the Stock you are interested in in E2 and enter this formula in F2
=SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$100=$E1)*
($C$2:$C$100=MAX($C$2:$C$100))*$B$2:$B$100)
Format the cell as Date

Roger explained how to calculate the date outside the pivot table.

To do this in a pivot table:

Put stock name and date in the Row area of the pivot table
Put Share Price in the Data area
In the pivot table, right-click the field button for Date
Click on Field Settings
Click the Advanced button
Under Top 10 AutoShow, click On
Select Top 1 from the Show settings
For Using Field, select Sum of Share Price
Click OK

The pivot table should show the date with the highest share price for
each stock.

Hi,

Minor modification to the formula, since the stock went into E2, not E1:

=SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$100=$E2)*
($C$2:$C$100=MAX($C$2:$C$100))*$B$2:$B$100)

Alternatively you can use:

=INDEX(B2:B26,MATCH(MAX(IF(A2:A26=F1,C2:C26,)),C2:C26,0))

This formula is array entered and assumes Stock symbols or names are in
column A, Dates in B, amounts in C. and you enter the stock of interes in
F1. To array enter a formula press Shift+Ctrl+Enter instead of Enter.
