Problem

In Google Sheets I have huge GOOGLEFINANCE formulas that return accurate results however the sheet is often unresponsive, and can take a few hours to recalculate when reloaded.

Is there a way to shorten the calculation and make the page load faster?

Current Formula

Accurately performs the calculation for a single stock over a single 52-week period:

Overview

1. Column A contains roughly 2,000 NSE-listed stocks.
2. For each stock, I need to return a comparison of its weekly pricing over 52 weeks to the NIFTY_50 benchmark index's pricing for the same period.
3. For each stock, I would like to perform the calculation 8 times, once in each of Columns G through N with the only difference being that each calculation's 52-week period is offset 1 week in the past from the previous column's:
   • Column G: week   0 through Week -51
   • Column H: week -1 through week -52
     _{. . . continues}
   • Column N: week -7 through week -58
4. Visualizing the Calculation:
   

   =((cur-wk)/AVERAGE(all-wks)-1)*10

   • cur-wk
     A single value calculated from the current week's stock price divided by the current week's benchmark index price.
   • all-wks
     A 1x52 array of values returned by calculating, for each of the 52 weeks in the period, that week's stock price divided by that week's benchmark index price.
