Weekly showcase: March 28, 2021

1. Of late, one of the commonly sought-after advice in our community has been regarding international investments in equity portfolios.

   The queries have been twofold:
   
    - Looking for which geographies to invest in
    - How to invest there.
  
   We now have two FAQ entries guiding our readers through these queries: 

   Why should I invest in the US markets? Read here: https://indiainvestments.gitbook.io/content/faqs/why-should-i-invest-in-the-us-markets

   How should I invest in US equity?   https://indiainvestments.gitbook.io/content/faqs/how-should-i-invest-in-us-equity

   Shoutout to @shryzel for all your hard work on this!

  2. Earlier, we had added an article about fetching data for tickers in Google Sheets, using the `GOOGLEFINANCE()` function.

     This was part of a broader topic on using external data.

     We've now added another 3-part article following up on the same topic: _Working with CSV Format_.

     As the article notes, we may need to use datasets that aren't freely available through APIs, so we explore on using transaction history available in CSV format for analysis. Read here: https://indiainvestments.gitbook.io/content/excel/using-external-data-working-with-csv-format

     We've @crimelabs786 to thank for this.
