Spreadsheet Column Width Indicator

Enjoyed this line from an interview in this week’s Barron’s with steel sector analyst Michelle Applebaum:

“Reliance (RS) went public in 1994 with just under a half-billion dollars in sales, and this year their sales are projected to reach $7 billion. They’ve made 40 acquisitions since 1994. They are more profitable than other distributors, and I need to make my spreadsheet columns wider for them because they have double-digit margins and nobody else does.”
