Can googlefinance() return the stock exchange for a given ticker symbol?

I track a porfolio of shares in excel and until last week I was getting share data from the yahoo API. They just pulled the plug with no warning so I'm now getting it from google finance by importing a google sheet which is populated with a table created using the googlefinance() function and published on the web.

The only item I can't get is the stock exchange for a given ticker symbol. The published info on the attributes is a bit sketchy. Does any one know if its possible?

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
I'm happy for people if they are still able to get what they need from yahoo but speaking personally, they have shown so much contempt for their users that using yahoo - for anything - will be an absolute last resort.

Also, this solution seems very complicated to me and I think i'd struggle with it. My curent Google finance solution is delightfully easy to use and I'm happier with this than I was with yahoo.
